The Test Exec Class

The com.itko.lisa.test.TestExec class provides access to the state of the test and convenience functions for performing common tasks within DevTest elements. A TestExec parameter is passed to most DevTest element methods. Some of the most useful methods that the TestExec class provides include:

• log: Fires a EVENT_LOGMSG TestEvent including the string parameter.
• getStateObject: Takes a string property key and returns the value of that property.
• setStateValue: Takes a string property key and an Object and sets the value of that property to the specified Object value.
• setNextNode: Takes the string name of a node and sets the next test case to fire to that test case.
• raiseEvent: Allows you to fire an arbitrary DevTest event.
