Purpose of automated keywords
Hi Team
I am currently looking for more information on using the keywords in RQM 4.0.1.
While going through the help document, I understand that keywords can be created to reference manual scripts that can be re-used later.
Basically to add the redundant steps.
However struggling to find its usage with automated scripts.
I have created keywords and referenced it with RFT script that is imported in RQM.
Now when I create a new script and try to use the drag and drop of the automated script in the editor, nothing happens; I have also tried right clicking on the keyword to insert it at a given step but do not see any changes.
Do let me know if I am missing anything here.
Best Regards
Rajat

Hi, is Keyword supposed to work with test automation (RFT)?
I thought Keywords was for reuse of test script steps ?
Example: you create a test script named "Log in" with e.g. 4 steps that you often reuse, then you create a Keyword "log in" and associate it with the test skript. Then when you create a test case + test script named "Log in using Crome", you drag the Keyword "Log in" to your test script and add a last step "use Crome".
When the log in behaviour change you can change the Keyword skript and it changes everywere it associated.
Don´t think this work with test automation !

Hi,
Has there been any resolution to this? I am also seeing the same symptoms.
1: Created automated keyword and associated automated script (command-line script - apparently it will work with this too).
2: Created manual script and dragged the automated keyword to a step in the test script. The automated keyword does not appear in the step afterwards.
3: Dragged a manual keyword to a step in the test script. The manual keyword does appear in the test script afterwards.
Is there something else I am missing or is this a defect, or is whatever I am doing not supported?
Thanks in advance
