Edit Mode GUI

While in the Edit mode, the Script Steps table ( Figure:TestComposer Window - Edit Mode) displays the steps for the current script using color highlighting, based on the step type. While enabling you to add new steps and remove or re-order existing ones, the Script Steps table also permits the in-place editing of existing steps.

Figure:TestComposer Window - Edit Mode

Access to operations for creating a script, configuring script-level parameters, and adding script steps are provided using toolbar buttons and commands. While editing a script in the Edit mode, different information is displayed in the Validation Messages, Execution Messages, Command Response, Breakpoints, Tcl Packages, Events, and Find/Replace tabs at the bottom of the window.

The Session Consoles pane, which provides support for the Capture functionality of the Edit mode, is used for defining connectivity settings for establishing connections to configured test devices and for executing commands on these devices. When active sessions are established to test devices, console windows display the input commands and the device responses to these commands.

The different Edit mode panes can be displayed or hidden by clicking the corresponding Command Response, Validation Messages, Execution Messages, Breakpoints, Tcl Packages, Events, or Find/Replace commands of the button from the Script ribbon.
