usage of _testStepCheck and _testSubtestBegin

Hi,

I've a scenario as below:

I've two sub tests. In one subtest, I'm validating the page. If I'm  on the page1, the subtest should continue. If the current page is not page1, then it should skip the current sub test and start the next/ specified subtest.

Can you suggest me in this..

Hi Smita,

There is not a concept of conditional logic in the Axe test model. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly any test which requires a condition is really two separate test cases i.e. for any given set of inputs you should be able to define the outcomes. So you would create a separate test for each scenario. Secondly, one of the main aims of Axe is present tests in a simple and logical way that can be easily understood and maintained by all testers. Once you start introducing conditional logic then you move into the realms of programming and the tests become unnecessarily complex. We find that there is nearly always a way in which tests can be designed without this requirement. If you need some specific advice for your situation than please email support and we will be happy to help.

Regards,

Sam
