Discussion for all testing needs

Step 1: Download -> Pylot_1.26 from http://www.pylot.org/download.html

Step 2: Download -> python-2.6.2.msi

Step 3: Download -> wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.10.1-py26.exe

Step 4: Download -> matplotlib-0.98.5.3.win32-py2.6.exe

Step 5: Download -> numpy-1.3.0-win32-superpack-python2.6.exe

Make sure you install in the same order just to avoid any complications

Run the command C:\pylot_1.25>python run.py -x –testcases.xml

from DOS prompt

If you want that in GUI mode then run C:\pylot_1.25>python run.py -x -g –testcases.xml

TIPS:

To run a test case with multiple urls’s you need to to write an xml script with all the url’s inside the script. this would be ok if there are only few url’s that you need to test but for bigger data sets its hard so

run the following script to populate the XML script reading data from a .csv file

print ‘<testcases>’
for data in lines:
print “”"
<case>
<url>http://foo.com/%s</url>
</case>
“”" % data
print ‘</testcases>’

In the DOS command prompt run -> python foo.py > testcases.xml
