Automation with UFT
This feature is available only in the Premium version of Squash AUTOM.
Warning
Squash AUTOM/Squash DEVOPS current version does not support UFT Service Tests.
Configuration of the test environment
For result publication to Squash TM functionnality, UFT must be configured to generate RRV reports:
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_REFERENCE |
| 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
As indicated, Squash TM adds a prefix to the code of the transmitted custom field. Make sure to take it into account.
Refer to the Squash TM documentation for more information about custom fields.
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, yo will 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.
Example
Below is an example of a UFT solution and the corresponding Squash TM test case automation:
Supported versions
