Defining Custom Configuration Attributes

Creating Test Cases
43
Any defined values appear in the List values field, as shown in the following
example:
If an attribute has a value in the list, you can select that value when you create a
configuration. When you run a configured test case, TestManager examines the
computer and determines if there is a match with the value.
Note:
If the source of values for the attribute is set to

run a test script on that computer and view the configuration of the computer in the
