Running a Test from a Specific Step

You can start runtime from a specific step using the Run from Step option in the Test menu.

Important:

You are responsible for completing any required preceding steps when running a test using the Run from Step command, such as Browser.Frameset, assigning variables, and hooking the browser, for example.

To run a test from a specific step:

1. With a test open in PTF, select Test, Run from Step.

   Alternatively, you can press F6.

2. In the Run from Step dialog box, enter or select the step sequence number from which to begin test runtime, and click OK.

   If the specified sequence number does not exist, test runtime begins at either the next highest sequence number, or the last test step sequence, whichever is the lower value.

   If the specified sequence number is an inactive step, then test runtime begins with the next highest sequence number.

3. After the test runs, PTF opens the test log in the Log Viewer.

   The log file will include information about which step the test was started from.
