What is “Output Value”


An output value is a step in which one or more values are captured at a specific point in your test and stored for the duration of the run session.

You can output the property values of any object. You can also output values from text strings, table cells, databases, and XML documents.

If you select to output a value to an existing parameter, Data Table column, or environment variable, the existing value is overwritten when the output value step runs. When the run session ends, the original value is restored.

When you insert an output value step in your test, it is displayed in the Expert view as:

Object.Output CheckPoint(Name)
