Editing Script Steps In-Place
While in the Edit mode, steps displayed in the Script Steps table can be edited inline by clicking into a step parameters field (column) and manually editing the parameter values in-place, or by editing parameter values in the drop-down box that appears when clicking a column's
control (Figure:Tests Table In-Place Editing).
In support of in-place editing, Test Steps table fields offer an autocomplete functionality for TestComposer variables and commands. When typing text manually into an editor, the Autocomplete functionality shows a list of possible commands names matching the input string.
When typing into a field the $ character denoting a reference to a variable, all existing variables are shown in the drop-down box that appears below the field. Autocomplete functionality can also be invoked by using CTRL + Space combination :By default, the Script Steps table displays only the Command type, Session, Return variable and Command string columns. More columns can be displayed by clicking the upper-left
button and selecting additional categories from the window that appears.
In addition to editing in place, other editing options, such as cut/copy/paste, including and excluding from execution, re-arranging the steps sequence, etc. are also available.
A complete reference of the editing options that are available for all steps is given in Chapter 6, Script Steps Reference Information.
