How to write a Masterplan?
[I want many plans and testcases to run by a single file. As Master plan-Sub plan are good medium since it gives me sharing features. Can anybody tell me how to run sub plans from the masterplan with an example.]


Yaa, you can run all your sub-plans using master plan approach.
You just open new plan file and call your subplan/testcase from this file.
if you want to run subplan from master plan then sysntax is like
include: mysubplan.pln
