Send E-Mail Activity Overview

Send E-Mail Activity Icon

The Send E-Mail activity is used to send an e-mail message at a designated point during a test run. The
timing of the e-mail depends on the placement of the Send E-Mail activity in the test procedure. As the
test progresses and the Send E-Mail activity becomes the current activity, an e-mail is sent.

To use the Send E-Mail activity, you must configure the e-mail server settings. Click Preferences >
Configuration and click the E-Mail tab. If you are unsure of your mail server settings, contact your e-mail
administrator.

Note:

The Send E-mail activity and the E-Mail panel in the Run Report activity have similar properties.
Configuring the SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server enables e-mail for both activities.

The message of your e-mail is automatically filled in with the following default variables:

User Name

Project Name

Test Name

Test Run Name

Specimen Name

Test Run Date

You can customize the variables included in the e-mail message. For troubleshooting, you can attach the
Message Log to the e-mail either as a text file named “MTS TestSuite.log” or a zipped version named
“MTS TestSuite.log.zip”.
