Description Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2005-09-19 08:56:02 EDT 
'Synchronous' property does not apply to manual test case loops/invocations.

The 'Synchronous' property is exposed to the user in the manual test editor and 
manual test client but does not apply to manual test case loops/invocations 
since the user controls the execution of the loop/invocation in the manual test 
client.  As such, the check box in the manual test editor and manual test 
client should be removed and the product documentation (e.g. 
help/topic/org.eclipse.hyades.test.doc.user/mtest/tptpManualTest_editor.htm) be 
updated:

"If Synchronous is checked and more than one iteration is specified, the loop 
iterations execute sequentially. If Synchronous is unchecked and more than one 
iteration specified, the loop iterations execute concurrently."

P2 Highly desirable and planned for this release, but not stop ship 
normal A problem making a function difficult to use but no special work around 
is required
Comment 2 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2005-10-10 10:16:16 EDT 
Not sufficient resources to complete in TPTP v4.1 (i2).  As such, moving to 
TPTP 4.2.
Comment 3 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-03-30 14:15:46 EST 
The following classes and documentation checked in to CVS (HEAD):

org.eclipse.hyades.test.tools.ui\src\org\eclipse\hyades\test\tools\ui\manual\int
ernal\editor\ManualBehaviorForm.java

org.eclipse.hyades.test.tools.ui\src\org\eclipse\hyades\test\tools\ui\common\internal\editor\TestInvocationDetailPage.java

org.eclipse.hyades.test.tools.ui\src\org\eclipse\hyades\test\tools\ui\common\internal\editor\LoopDetailPage.java

Comment 4 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-03-30 14:38:51 EST 
The synchronous property is only useful in the Manual Test context if the behavior does not wait for the completion of an invocation before moving on to the next step in the behavior.  That is, another manual test could be invoked from a manual test using a different manual runner.
Comment 5 Paul Slauenwhite CLA 2006-04-03 12:26:14 EDT 
Verified in the TPTP V4.2.0 (TPTP-4.2.0-200604030200) driver.
