Failure Scenario
When
you select Test Activity as Command Mode or Sequencer, on the On Demand
Command window, you may define Failure Scenarios for procedures, example,
Connect and Attach operations. A Failure Scenario consists of a list of
messages, actions associated with each message (Delay, Skip, Ignore, Abort),
and optional data (delay time, # of messages to be ignored or action after
abort).
You may save defined
message types, actions, and frequency of Failure Scenarios as a Template
in libraries. Each Failure Scenarios Template (FST) type is particular
to the Test Case (TC), On Demand Command (ODC), and Operation.
NOTE: FSTs of all types
are stored together in each library. When you select/open an FST
from a library, you will only see the FSTs that are valid for
your TC-ODC-Operation. When you Save an FST, all FSTs in
the library display. |
