TETware Report Writer

Support for the use of URI's in the TETware Report Writer is now included.

Scenario File Creation

The ability to create scenarios automatically by choosing the files to be included using a File Parser is now provided.

Scenario File Editing

The Scenario File displayed in the Scenario File Text window may now be edited and saved under the same or a different name (Save As).

Copy Remote System

A new Remote System may now be created by copying the configuration from a previously set up Remote System in the same Test Run.

Wizards

A Test Run Setup (Advanced) Wizard has been added. It can be accessed via the Wizards item in the menu bar. There is no access to this feature from the Toolbar. The Wizards menu now comprises: In all Wizards the  CANCEL, BACK, NEXT, FINISH are now included on all screens and options that are not permitted are grayed out.

In both the Test Run Wizards a Scenario File Selection pane has been added to prompt the user to include a Scenario File.

A Run TETware Report Writer wizard has been added to the Toolbar in place of the previous icon which took the user to the Report tab. This also replaces the Generate button on the TETware Report Writer tab, under the Reporting Tree Node. Users can now generate reports, based on the most recent execution of the active Test Run, without having to open the Report Writer tab.

Toolbar

The following changes have been made to the toolbar.

New IconFunction
Replaces previous icon.
Create Scenario File
Run TETware Report Writer replaces
Start Extract to Database


Reporting Tree Node

The Report Tree Node has been renamed the Reporting Tree Node and moved up to be under the Configuration Node.  This was thought to be more a more logical location as the report writers, and the database extract tool, must be configured before they can run from the Toolbar.  The name of this node has been changed to recognize that the Database and Database Setup tabs have been added to this node. 

Scenario Tree Node

This tree node is now always displayed. If no scenario file is selected, the scenario tree node is displayed with the message "No Scenario File Specified".

There are three new right-click menu options, these are:

Add Scenario File:Opens the Chose Scenario File pane to allow the user to select a scenario file.
Create Scenario File:Takes the User to the new Create Scenario File tab.
View Scenario Path:Opens the Scenario File Path Name message box and displays the full path and name of the Scenario File included in the active Test Run.
