Multiple scripts running - large testing

[przemilke]

Hi all, im a new one on this forum.

Im going to organise testing of large desktop application using autoIT. Ive a simple question about possibility of scripts run methods.

I will describe my idea:

Ive 100 scripts:

001_test.au3 (which launch desktop aplication)

002_test.au3 (function 1)

003_test.au3 (function 2)

...

100_test.au3 (function 99 and close application)

What is the best solution to run these scripts one after another (when one is finished, another starts)?

Maybe its possible to export names of files to external file *.au3 and control that kind of running from that file?

Maybe its possible to run one script from level previous one?

What u think about that?

Hi.

If i understand correctly your question this can be for you solution:

For $i=1 To 10


FileWrite(@ScriptDir&"\msgbox"&$i&".au3","MsgBox(64,""SIMPLE MSGBOX"",""SIMPLE MSGBOX"",1)") ;1 second timeout for msgbox

RunWait(@AutoItExe & " /AutoIt3ExecuteScript" & " " & """" & @ScriptDir&"\msgbox"&$i&".au3" & """") ;<==Running generated Scripts
FileDelete(@ScriptDir&"\msgbox"&$i&".au3")
Next

MsgBox(64,"END OF EXECUTION","END OF EXECUTION",3)

Exit

You've got a few options.

Add a

Run ( "program" [, "workingdir" [, show_flag[, opt_flag ]]] )

to the end of each of your programs to run the next. This would have the advantage that if one of the steps fails you can just run whatever step/script you want and the sequence will continue.

OR

Write a script with 100 RUNWAIT commands to run each of your scripts.

Runs an external program and pauses script execution until the program finishes.
RunWait ( "program" [, "workingdir" [, show_flag [, opt_flag ]]] )

Check out the help file for more details.

BTW why do you want 100 scripts? Why not put all the tests in one script?

Good Luck
