AdministerCheck

Syntax

integer AdministerCheck(string label, string expected, string recorded, integer result)

Description

Report and record the result of a user check already performed.

Parameters

• label

  Title for the check, to be displayed in the report. This is a documentary parameter that has no influence on the check itself.

• expected

  Expected value for the check. (For reporting purposes only.)

• recorded

  Recorded value that was compared against the expected value. (For reporting purposes only.)

• result

  The result value that is to be administered for this check: 1 means pass, 0 means fail.

Return Value

The function returns the value of the result parameter.

Notes

• The functions AdministerCheck, AdministerCheckArgument and AdministerCheckNamedArgument can be used to administer the result of a check already done in a script. They are typically used when the check is not a comparison between an expected and a recorded string (like “check if the response time is below 8 seconds”).
• Use AdministerCheckArgument or AdministerCheckNamedArgument if possible, since these functions allow for better reporting (in particular when used in action definitions).
