com.consol.citrus.container.Template

All Implemented Interfaces:

TestAction

public class Template
extends AbstractTestAction

Class represents a previously defined block of test actions. Test cases can call templates and reuse its functionality. Templates operate on test variables. While calling the template caller can set these variables as parameters. Nested test actions are executes in sequence. The template execution may affect existing variable values in the calling test case. So variables may have different values in the test case after template execution. Therefore user can create a local test context by setting globalContext to false. Template then will have no affect on the variables used in the test case.
