Documentation
Definition
CATT test cases usually consist of modules . This means that most of the reusable CATT functions are encapsulated in separate CATT modules with multiple nesting, which are called by REF. The same applies to eCATT. When migrating a test case that contains an existing CATT module, this REF remains for the time being - that is, an old CATT module is called from the newly migrated eCATT script using the eCATT command REFCATT or REMOTECATT, in case it was an old remote REF call in CATT.
Before migrating, we recommend that you decide whether only the CATT test cases at the highest level should be migrated or if all CATT modules that are called by REF should be included. When migrating these later, it will be necessary to convert an eCATT command REFCATT with all its parameters to a new REF to an eCATT script.
Use
There is always the option to resolve the existing REFs by using a recursive migration. In this case an existing REF to a CATT module is not migrated as REFCATT, but the CATT module itself is migrated directly in an eCATT test script and the reference to it is stored as REF. If the CATT module that was called by REF in CATT already exists as a migrated eCATT test script, it is called by REF.
