  • Observe the following format for the folder path:
    • Windows platform: Use backward slashes as separators for the path.
    • Linux platform: Use forward slashes as separators for the path. (Note that network paths are not supported)
  • Note that this built-in action is not currently supported on macOS or mobile platforms.
  • variable argument:
    • If the variable in argument variable has not been declared, the action creates it as a global.
    • If the variable argument is left empty, TestArchitect supplies a global variable with the name _result.
  • This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string <ignore> is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to <ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
