TestDriver Input

TestDriver uses an XML structure which contains the tasks and sub-tasks as inputs to perform tests. TestDriver v1.0 still uses the old XML schema, whereas, TestDriver v2.x uses the XML format built on an XML schema called the driver file. This is detailed in an XML Schema . TestDriver v2.x supports both the XML formats.

However, when the tool is using the old XML format, the TestDriver converts the old XML format to the new TestDriver format, and saves it to the XMLRoot directory as a .driver file. The name of this file is same as the name of the parent directory of the XML root.

Note: It is necessary to refactor the .driver file to optimise tests. .driver file can be used in the GUI and for any future runs.

The following topics details about the TestDriver Schema, vairables and wildcards used, and how to view the test hierarchy.
