Dear All,

How can i pass the command line parameters into the sahi scripts ?

I searched for the post but I found that There is only work around method available in which we need to write into file and we need to include that file.

But I am creating the file dynamically in one script and how can I include that file in other script ?

Please Help me.

Also I have another question.

Suppose I have one file with the data as shown below.

KEY1=VALUE1
KEY2=VALUE2
KEY3=VALUE3

Can it be possible that I can Make this KEY1,KEY2,KEY3 variable available in my sahi script ?

Means I can use this variable and It should give the value VALUE1.


Please Help me For this.

    Hi,

    Using an include is a clean way.
    There is another parameter called -initJS which can be passed to Sahi via the java command or through ant script. This takes a valid javascript string and evaluates it before every Sahi script, so that variables are available

    In sahi/userdata/bin/testrunner.bat,
    Change
    java -cp %SAHI_HOME%\lib\ant-sahi.jar net.sf.sahi.test.TestRunner -test %SCRIPTS_PATH%/%1 -browserType %3 -baseURL "%START_URL%" -host localhost -port 9999 -threads %THREADS% -useSingleSession %SINGLE_SESSION%

    to
    java -cp %SAHI_HOME%\lib\ant-sahi.jar net.sf.sahi.test.TestRunner -test %SCRIPTS_PATH%/%1 -browserType %3 -baseURL "%START_URL%" -host localhost -port 9999 -threads %THREADS% -useSingleSession %SINGLE_SESSION% -jsInit "var $name='abcd';"

    Now, $name will be available in your scripts.
