Test reference in Squash TM

In order to bind a Squash TM test case to a UFT automated test, the content of the Automated test reference field of the Automation block of a test case must have the following format:

[1]

With:

  • [1]: The path to the test folder to execute.

Nature of the exploitable Squash TM parameters

Here is a table showing the exploitable parameters:

Nature Key
Name of the dataset DSNAME
Dataset parameter DS_[name]
Test case reference TC_REF
Test case custom field TC_CUF_[code]
Iteration custom field IT_CUF_[code]
Campaign custom field CPG_CUF_[code]
Test suite custom field TS_CUF_[code]

Legend:

  • [code]: Value of the "Code" of a custom field
  • [name]: Parameter name as filled in Squash TM

Squash TM parameters usage

When executing a Squash TM automated test case with UFT, it is possible to exploit the Squash TM parameters inside the test.

In order to achieve this, you'll have to follow these steps:

  • Create custom fields in Squash TM and bind them to the project bearing the test plan to execute.

  • Make sure that the code fields of the parameters correspond to the names of the existing parameters present in the UFT solution.

Below is an example of a UFT solution and the corresponding Squash TM test case automation:

uft-params-1

uft-params-2

uft-params-1

uft-params-2

Supported versions

Squash AUTOM and Squash DEVOPS have been validated with UFT 15.0.2. Any recent version should work properly.
