Forum Squashtest

Hi,

I am a newbie in this technology so is not clear for me, where is the best layer to put parametrization to test a Web Application with Sahi: on TM, on Ta or directly in Sahi.
Is there any suggestion for this issue ?

Is there any tutorial with examples which explain how to retrieve some parameters from a csv file, test the result form of a Web Application using the parameters and check the assertions ?

Thanks

Marco

Hi Marco,

Many questions here and lots of answers depends on your context...
If the target user is familiar with coding the best layer to put parametrization is TA. In fact TM is a good way to allow functionnal tester to use parameters in automatized tests.

You have two ways to do it in TA :
- If you are not stuck with excel format you can turn your file into a TA ressource file (key/value) and execute a TA script using it (selenium/sahi/SoapUi...),
- If you specifically want to use excel file, just put the file name in your ressource file and load your file (and thus parameters) in the sahi or selenium script (for example).

You can find tutorials [url=https://sites.google.com/a/henix.fr/wik ... /tutorials]here[/url]. Don't focus on the parameter part of he user guide which is dedicated to the link between TM and TA, just know that it is possible to pass parameters to TA test suites in JSon format while launching it with maven.

I hope this helps,

- Turning your file into TA resource file will do the trick for you here. Good luck !

Hello,

I have just started using Squash TM, I wish to know how to generate a script .ta and how to integrate in TM?

Thank you for your return.

Hi Karim,
thanks for your quick answer, but I have tested your procedure, and it appears that the parameters (Customfields) are not passed from squash-tm to squash-ta (to reproduce, see in debugger the json passed in new from the campaign)
And even though they were passed, on squash-ta, the parameters fail to get translated. I tested on squash-ta installed on CentOS, with appropriate TestTree.json, and in the tmp/squash, the sah is not changed.
I used ${TC_CUF_Param1} as advised [url=http://www.squashtest.org/forum/ta-scri ... ng=fr#3922]here[/url]. I also tested with $TC_CUF_Param just in case.

Should I open a bug ? Or is there something to check ?

Hi,

Sorry, I missed your message and answered the previous one...
Can you tell me which version of tm and ta you are using ?

Karim.
