Use the Process Step Type

The Process step type with a Run action is useful for running processes through Process Scheduler.

When you select the Use Process Run check box before you record a process request, all actions in the run request standard page will be replaced by the step action Process.Run and any Process Monitor actions that are recorded will be ignored.

You can set the Use Process Run check box using PeopleSoft Internet Architecture (select PeopleTools, and then Lifecycle Tools, and then Test Framework, and then PTF Configuration Options) for all tests, or you can select the check box from the Toolbar when you are ready to record a test (Configure Recording Settings icon).

The Process.Run step will handle the runtime and return the process status. You can modify the parameters on the Process.Run step to indicate the expected results.

Suppose you have the following test scenario:

From the Request Calculation page, click the Process Monitor link. 
In Process Monitor, click the Refresh button until either Success 
or Error appears in the Run Status column for your process instance.

The Process.Run step will capture all of the process information and you can modify the step parameters in PTF.
