Implementing a Keyword in Silk Test Classic

Before implementing a keyword, define the keyword as part of a keyword-driven test.

This functionality is supported only if you are using the Open Agent.

To implement a keyword for reuse in keyword-driven tests:

  1. Open a keyword-driven test that includes the keyword that you want to implement.
  2. In the Keyword-Driven Test Editor, click Implement Keyword to the left of the keyword that you want to implement. The Start Recording dialog box opens.
  3. Perform one of the following actions:
    • To record the keyword, click Yes.
    • To create an empty keyword method, click No.
  4. In the Create Keyword Script dialog box, click Yes to implement the keyword in a new script file, or click No to add the keyword implementation to an existing script file.
  5. If you have set an application configuration for the current project and you are testing a Web application, the Select Browser dialog box opens. Select the browser on which you want to record the keyword.
You can now record or manually script actions for the keyword.
