Click OK.
Object files will be saved in the location you specify here. In addition,
SilkTest will try to find object files in these locations. If it fails to find an
object file, it will look in the directory containing the source file.
Examples Specifying
d:\obj
in the Objfile Path field tells SilkTest to read
and write all object files in the d:\obj directory, regardless of where the source
files are located.
Specifying
obj
in the Objfile Path field tells SilkTest to read and write an
object file in the directory obj that is a subdirectory of the directory
containing the source file. In this scenario, each directory of source files will
have a different directory of object files. For example, if a source file is in
d:\src, its corresponding object file would be read from and written to
d:\src\obj.
Specifying multiple directories You can specify several directories in the
Objfile Path field if you want. New files will be written to the first directory
specified. SilkTest will search the directories in the order that you specified
them to find existing files and will subsequently resave existing files in the
same directory where it found them.
Recording from within a QA Organizer testplan
You can record a testcase while writing a testplan. The advantage of doing so
is that QA Organizer automatically inserts the script and testcase statements
into the plan once the recording is finished, linking the plan to the 4Test code.
Procedure To link to a script and testcase by recording a testcase:
1
Place the insertion cursor at the end of a test description or a group
description.
For example, the following figure shows how to position the cursor to
link the
