| <h1>How to pass a value to a test during its execution.</h1> |
| <p></p> |
| |
| <p>In case when it is required to pass some values to a test in command line, it is possible to do it like this:</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>In AUT VM arguments pass desired parameters as Java properties, i.e. add arguments like this: |
| <pre>-DpropertyName=propertyValue </pre> |
| </li> |
| <li>Use ECL command <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/rcptt/release/1.5.4/doc/ecl/index.html#substitute-variables">substitute-variables</a> (which uses <b>org.eclipse.core.variables</b> plugin) to get a property value like this:</li> |
| <pre>//writes prop val to AUT workspace log |
| log [substitute-variables "${system_property:propertyName}"]</pre> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>With aid of <a href="https://www.eclipse.org/rcptt/documentation/userguide/procedures/"> variables and user-defined procedures</a>, this becomes even more convenient:</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>Create ECL context which consist of only one command, declaring global variables: |
| <pre>global [val prop1 [substitute-variables "${system_property:prop1}"]] |
| [val prop2 [substitute-variables "${system_property:prop2}"]] |
| [val prop3 [substitute-variables "${system_property:prop3}"]]</pre> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li>Add this ECL context to project's default contexts in Project Settings<br></li> |
| <li>Access anywhere in ECL these properties using $-syntax: |
| <pre>concat $prop1 $prop2 $prop3 | show-alert</pre> |
| </li> |
| </ol> |

| Important |
| </div> |
| |
| <div class="panel-body"> |
| When AUT does not include <b>org.eclipse.core.variables</b> plugin and hence command 'substitute-variables' fails, it is possible to use <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/rcptt/release/1.5.4/doc/ecl/index.html#get-java-property">get-java-property</a> to get JVM system property value. |
