What is a simple data object type for test case steps to support a test case?

A test case step defines a single step to be performed during the execution of a test case. Test case steps in a test case must be defined in a sequence that the tester needs to follow to perform the test case.

Here is a simple data object type for test case steps.

Test_Case_Step data type, in TestMan version 1.00, properties:

• ID - Identification of this test case step.
• Test_Case_ID - Reference to the test case data object.
• Name - A short name for this test case step.
• Description - A long description for this test case step including actions needed to perform this step.
• Inputs - Child object for a list of input data to be used to perform this test step.
• Assertions - Child object for a list assertions to evaluate how successful this test step is.

Examples of Test_Case_Step object:

Test_Case_Step
	ID: 333
	Test_Case_ID: 111
	Name: Loading login page in browser
	Description: Sent a HTTP GET request to retrieve the login page.
	Inputs: 
		URL: parameter - url
	Assertions: 
		Show login page

	ID: 334
	Test_Case_ID: 111
	Name: Submit username and password
	Description: Send a HTTP POST to submit login information.
	Inputs: 
		Username: parameter - username
		Password: parameter - password
	Assertions: 
		Show home page
