<rss version="2.0" xmlns:a10="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"><channel><title>Inflectra Customer Forums: Parameters in sub-TestCases (Thread)</title><description> Hi,  We have a TestCaseLvl1 calling a TestCaseLvl2 calling multiple times a TestCaseLvl3, which has a Parameter (e.g.  ${TCL3_parameter} ).  The problem is:  from TCLvl1 point of view , we cannot execute TCLvl3 with  different  parameters:   either we do nothing, and TCLvl1 knows  ${TCL3_parameter} , but if we fill it here, it will be the same for every TCLvl3 called.  or we use TCLvl2 to call TCLvl3 with different names, e.g.  ${TCL3_parameter} = ${1stCallValue} ,  and later  ${TCL3_parameter} = ${2ndCallValue} ; then in TCLvl1 we fill  ${1stCallValue}=Value1  and  ${2ndCallValue}=Value2 . But in this case, TCLvl3 does NOT display  Value1  but  ${1stCallValue} , as if it had taken it as a string, and not as a reference.   This is a big problem for us because we have either to sacrifice test case usage or maintenability.  Is there a way to fill a parameter with a parameter, or to execute sub-testcases with different parameters values ?

What i need is the contrary: i call many times the  same  test SetNewWifiSecurity, therefore with the  same named  parameter ${security}; I would like to fill differently this ${security} parameter : WPA2, LEAP, PEAP... This seems to be doable only at calling level (N+1), and NOT above (N+2).     </description><pubDate>Wed, 10 Mar 2021 12:30:00 -0500</pubDate><a10:updated>2021-03-10T12:30:00-05:00</a10:updated><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/2364.aspx#reply3929</link></item></channel></rss>
