Change the Test Variable in Case Steps FAQS

1. What is the "test variable" in a Case step?
• The test variable is the variable used for evaluating conditions defined in the WHEN statements of the Case step. It determines which branch of the Case step gets executed based on its value.
2. How do I change the test variable in a Case step?
• To change the test variable, select the Case step in the Steps Hierarchy, go to the Properties Inspector, click Lookup Variable, and then follow the instructions in the Modify Case Step Dialog to select a new variable.
3. Can I change the test variable at any point during the process?
• Yes, you can change the test variable at any time as long as the Case step is selected and you're able to access the Properties Inspector.
4. What happens if I change the test variable in a Case step?
• Changing the test variable will affect how the WHEN conditions are evaluated. The new variable will be used for condition checks, and the execution of the Case step will depend on the value of this new variable.
5. Where do I find the Modify Case Step Dialog?

• No, there is no default test variable for Case steps. You must specify a variable to be used for the WHEN conditions.
8. How does the test variable affect the execution of the Case step?
• The test variable influences which condition in the WHEN clause evaluates to true, determining which path the Case step will follow. Changing the variable will alter the logic of how the conditions are tested.
