Test Case Execution with Debugger

...

This feature allows you to put break-points when executing test cases. If you do not wish to debug the test case step by step you can put a break-point on any step and click the Play button, the test case execution will pause once it reaches to the break-point. This is especially helpful when you want to check the impact of a new step before a specific step or you want to modify a specific step. 

  • To pause test case execution on a step, you can add a break-point on any step from the Execution window in Qualitia Automation Studio. 

  • To add a break-point click the line number before the test case execution starts or whenever the execution is in pause state in the Qualitia Debugger window.

  • You can add break-points to any step except for a Task Name or Conditional Structure (If, Else) step.

  • During the course of test case execution debugger waits for user to press Next or Play button whenever it reaches to the break-point. Only after one clicks Play Next the debugger will execute that step. 

  • Debugger allows removing break-points from debugger view. The breakpoints added from test case development view reflect in debugger view and vice versa.

Debugging Test Execution with Break-Points on Failure

This feature is very helpful in debugging test cases where it is not clear which step will fail during the execution and the reason for its failure. Qualitia users can use this option to enable the break on failure. Debugger will pause the test case execution as soon as it encounters a failed (or defect) step. You can evaluate the failed step and continue with the debugging.

To use this feature:

  • Select the Break on Failure checkbox on the Qualitia Debugger window.
