Data range value as a parameter

[senouci]

Hi,

According to Data Driven Architecture approach, I would like to know if it's possible to get a data range value dynamically from a module variable or global parameter or column of a database table ?

As tangible benefit of using a dynamic data range value, testing projects using a database, linking between Primary and Foreign keys of entities of database schema become easy
Thanks in advance for your replay

Hi Senouci,

I'm not exactly sure what you want to achieve, but if I understand this correctly, the code below could help you.
Just create a code module and place it in the setup of your testsuite.

Code: Select all

int min_range = Convert.ToInt32(DataRange.Split(',')[0])-1;
int max_range = Convert.ToInt32(DataRange.Split(',')[1])-1;			
Ranorex.Core.Testing.TestSuite.Current.GetTestCase("TestCase").DataContext.SetRange(min_range,max_range);
Ranorex.Core.Testing.TestSuite.Current.GetTestCase("TestCase").DataContext.ReloadData();

You will have to make a variable called "DataRange" and bind it to a global parameter. The parameter should contain the data range, separated through a comma. (e.g. 1,5)

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
