Playing back saved test cases
To play back a saved test case, click its name in the Name field.
The Run Rule window opens and the system runs the test case. If differences are found between the results of running the current state of the rule and the saved test case, they are displayed in the Run Rule window with the following options.
If a white list exists for the test case, only differences for those white-listed pages and properties are displayed in the Run Rule window after running the test case. If differences are reported for white-listed pages or properties, you can indicate whether to remove the property or page from the white list by selecting the corresponding radio button (for a property) or checkbox (for a page) in the Remove White List Entry For column, and clicking the Save Ignores button. The test case is saved and re-run, applying the updated selections.
Note: Activities that result in display of an XML stream will not display that stream during test case playback.

| Save Ignores | The differences encountered are displayed in the lower part of the window. If you want to indicate that a difference is to be ignored in future runs, you can select to have the system ignore it for either this test case or for all test cases, and then click Save Ignores to save your choices.
You can also indicate that differences involving an entire page should be ignored in future runs of this specific test case by selecting the checkbox corresponding to that page name. If you specify to ignore a page for this test case, all property differences found for properties on that page are ignored each time this test case runs.6.1 SP2 |
