Forming expression for IF /ELSE IF:

...

  1. Numeric, Boolean comparisons, string values and arithmetic operators are allowed.
  2. Environment variables and stored variables if used should be included in curly braces in expression.
  3. User can save the execution status of last executed step as $$_STATUSusing StoreVariable keyword, Or directly use $$_STATUS in expression ($$_Status is not case sensitive).
    • Using $$_STATUS directly in expression.

  • Saving status of step ($$_STATUS) for use in expression.

User can save the execution status of a step in variable. This status can later be used in expression of IF step.

  • Saving execution status for future reference.


More about $$_Status

  • $$_Status is not case sensitive
  • It gets overridden after each step is executed, hence can store the status of last executed step only.

  • Values of $$_STATUS variable

Not executed


  • $$_Status does not store any status for conditional steps like "IF", "ELSE IF", "ELSE" and END IF.
  • If a user declares environment variable named "$$_STATUS", its value is ignored.


Examples of expressions:
Following are some examples of valid/invalid expressions, assuming var1 and var2 as stored variables.
Note

  1. The static or dynamic string data used , should always be enclosed with within double quotes.
  2. The expression, having string as data, should always be enclosed with within double quotes.
  3. Boolean values are case-sensitive and should be written in small case.

Special Characters






Using Qualitia Special characters:

  1. ""a~xyz"== "a~xyz""
  2. ""a~^xyz"== "a~^xyz""
  3. ""a~{xyz"== "a~{xyz""
  4. ""a~{xyz"== "a~{xyz""


    Always use escape character ~ before qualitia special characters ~,^,{,}

    For any other character no escape character is required.
    e.g ""as#gh%ff"==" as#gh%ff""




All are valid
