The <acronym class="acronym">UTF</acronym> supports multiple parameters that affect test module execution. To set the parameter's value you can
|
|
either use a runtime configuration subsystem interface from within the test module initialization function or you can
|
|
specify the value at runtime during test module invocation.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="first-line-indented">
|
|
The <acronym class="acronym">UTF</acronym> provides two ways to set a parameter at runtime: by specifying a command line argument and by setting an
|
|
environment variable. The command line argument always overrides the corresponding environment variable.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="first-line-indented">
|
|
During test module initialization the <acronym class="acronym">UTF</acronym> parses the command line and excludes all parameters that belong to it and
|
|
their values from the argument list. The rest of command line is forwarded to the test module initialization function
|
|
supplied by you. The command line argument format expected by the <acronym class="acronym">UTF</acronym> is:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
--<command line argument name>=<argument_value>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="first-line-indented">
|
|
The command line argument name is case sensitive. It is required to match exactly the name in parameter specification.
|
|
There should not be any spaces between '=' and either command line argument name or argument value.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="first-line-indented">
|
|
The corresponding environment variable name is also case sensitive and is required to exactly match the name in the
|
|
parameter specification.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="first-line-indented">
|
|
All information about supported parameters is summarized below in the reference section.
