User-Supplied Help Overview

Runtime help

To assist the operator with tests you design, you can add a Help button to any part of the test-run display
to provide access to help information for the test. When the operator clicks the Help button during a test
run, the information from the specified source is shown in a separate window. You can provide a link to
an Internet, intranet, or disk location that opens a file of any type supported on an operator workstation.

Note:

The custom help button for test-run display is not to be confused with the MTS TestSuite Help menu
options.

Procedure messages

To provide the operator with information during the execution of a test and to prompt the operator for input,
you can add custom message activities to the procedure you define for a test.
