Video Short demo: How to change Action argument value in all tests in TMX

Say you have the same, hard-coded password used in multiple tests. Here’s how you can change it in 1 location for ALL tests.

Open a test and edit the test step where you need to change the value.

On the Step Editor window, note the ‘Type’ (ex. TextBox) and ‘Action’ (ex. Input)

[Arron Rickert]

Close Step Editor and click over to the ‘Actions’ Window (if permissions allow).
Find the noted type (ex. TextBox) in the Actions tree and expand to see the Actions.
Highlight the noted Action (ex. Input).
Click on the ‘Values’ tab.

From the values list (all the argument values used in the selected action), find and select the value to change.
(You can click over to the ‘Usage’ tab to ensure the selected value is used in the tests you are desiring to change)
Click the ‘Replace’ left menu option.

In the ‘Replace Values’ window, change the value in the ‘With’ field to the new desired value.
Click the ‘Replace All’ left menu option to change EVERY test using the selected value in the selected action.
