Standard Actions Methods

Qatts provides few handful action methods that help in interacting with the Product to perform automation. The method syntax follows normal Java standards.

Variables

setRunValue

Using setRunValue() method, you can temporarily store a value and utilize it anywhere in the execution at a later point. Note that the value stored can be used only within that execution. setRunValue method is a named-value map, i.e. it holds a value against a key, which can be utilized later by calling getRunValue() method.

setRunValue() in previous releases of QATTS is called as setCache(). However this method is deprecated in the current release.

Syntax:

void setRunValue(String propName, Object cacheValue)

Param Name
Type
Condition
Description

propName

String

Mandatory

The name of the run variable

cacheValue

Object

Mandatory

The value of the run variable. It can be either a static string or can be derived from the test data

getRunValue and getRunValueStr

getRunValue() and getRunValueStr methods are used to retrieve a value set to a variable by setRunValue/setCache methods.

The main difference between getRunValue and getRunValueStr methods lies in their return types. getRunValue returns an Object type and getRunValueStr returns a String type.

syntax:

Object getRunValue(String propName)

String getRunValueStr(String propName)

Param Name
Type
Condition
Description

propName

String

Mandatory

Name of the run variable
