Execute test cases

This tutorial requires that all the previous steps in pixel-designer were done in online mode.

In this tutorial, we will create templates in pixel-runner and use these templates to execute test cases in pixel-runner. Templates capture the details of which test cases should be executed for a given version of automation project.

Creating templates in pixel-runner

1. Launch command prompt and change directory to where pixel-run.exe is located. See setup guide for pixel-runner if required.

2. Run pixel-run template --help to see help for templates

3. Run pixel-run template new to create a new template and follow instructions to provide required value. This template will execute all test cases

   

4. Repeat step 3 to create another template as shown below. This template will execute only test cases belonging to Fixture#1 for project “Calculator Demo”

   

Test selectors are C# scripts which can be used to filter if a test case belonging to a given fixture can be executed.

Executing test cases in pixel-runner using templates

1. Run pixel-run run template calculator-all 1.0.0.0 to run template calculator-all for version 1.0.0.0 of automation project.

   

2. Run pixel-run run template calculator-f1 2.0.0.0 to run template calculator-f1 for version 2.0.0.0 of automation project.
