By
default, all Functional Tester scripts extend the
RationalTestScript class,
and thereby inherit a number of methods (such as callScript). If you are an
advanced user, you might want to create your own helper superclass, which
extends
RationalTestScript and adds additional methods or
overrides the methods from
RationalTestScript.
About this task
To create a script helper superclass for a script:
- Click or click the View
Menu button
next to the New button
on the Functional Tester toolbar and click Helper Superclass. The Create Script Helper Superclass dialog box opens.
- In the folder field, either enter the appropriate path to the folder
or use the navigation tools ( Home
, Back
, and Go Into
) to select the path
that contains the project for which you want to create a helper superclass.
- Select a project name in the project list.
- Enter a class name in the Script name field.
- Click Finish. Functional Tester
creates a new script in the Java™ Editor that you can use to manually
enter Java code.
The cursor appears at the top of the script.
- Enter the methods and member variables you want to make available
to the script.
Results
Note: When you create a script helper superclass, you can
override base-level functionality from the RationalTestScript class.
