Customizing Script Execution
To customize script execution, perform the following steps:
1. Open the Execute Scripts dialog box by one of the following methods:
• In the Sessions view, select a running session, right-click, and select Execute Session Scripts.
• In the Resource Scripts view, select one or more scripts, right-click, and select Start. Depending on
how many scripts you select, that number of scripts will appear in the Execute Scripts dialog box.
• In the Resource Scripts view, double-click a script.
• In the session editor, right-click and select Execute Session Scripts.
Based on your selection, the script details may be pre-populated; however, when you use the session
editor option of opening this dialog box, it will appear empty, because you must manually add the
scripts (i.e., you must specify which ones to run).
2. By default, you execute the scripts in parallel. However, to run in a specific order, click the Execute
Sequentially check box to display the following options:
• Click Up or Down to manually change the sequence of scripts to execute. (Only available when you
enable the Execute Sequentially check box.)
• Click Add to add a default script or click Add > Add Default Script or Add > Add Script from
Repository to browse your script repository to add a script entry. Click OK after making your
selection.
• Click Remove to remove or delete a selected script entry.
• Click each property field and modify the existing values; see Table 14-2. The default values are
iterated from the preferences you configured in the Script Server (Window > Preferences > Test
and Script Execution > Script Server).
