Patterns

Hiya all,

I'm working on the patterns for several tests.
We always use the hostname as first part of the test-name.
However, with some tests the hostname/target starts with "\\"
Would it be possible to strip these, something like:

Code: Select all

=Replace(%host%,"\\","")

or

Code: Select all

=Right(%host%, len(%host%)-2)

Hi

You can use %HostAddrB% variable in Test Name field.

Unfortunately that's not allowed in the Patterns...
Does work in the individual tests though. Thanks!

Do not see any problems using %HostAddrB% in Patterns.

Could you describe how exactly %HostAddrB% "not allowed in the Patterns"?
HostMonitor version?

Hmmmm maybe I'm doing something wrong then.

I goto "Profiles" --> "Patterns"
For the "CPU usage" template I try to set the "Testname template" column to:
"%HostAddrB%: CPU Usage"

I then receive the error:
"TestName pattern does not provide enough information about test item
Template should contain either %host% or %path% or %object% or ((%folder% or %FCommentLine<N>% or %agent%) and (%testmethod%))"

It will save the input, but disable the template.
