Log Message
Log Message Activity Overview
Log Message Activity Icon
The Log Message activity writes an entry to the message log when a test performs the activity. The entry
can contain text and the value of one or more single-value variables. You cannot use arrays or choice lists
in the message log.
The procedure performs activities in logical order. Your log message is added to the message log when
the activity completes. You can track the progress of the test by watching the log messages.
Referencing variables in log messages
To show the value of test variables in a message, reference the variable names in the message using
Insert Variable or by entering the reference directly using the following syntax:
For a single-value, enter $var_$
Note:
If you change the variable identifier name, you must manually change the name in the Custom
Message Editor; otherwise, you receive a warning and the test cannot run.
