Using scripts in common testing scenarios
Several common ways of using scripts to test are shown in this section.
About this task
Your scripts and the tasks within them will vary based on you particular situation. For example, if you know your test cases rarely change then you can create a static set of tasks that do not require any knowledge of the runtime environment. If your test case changes frequently, then your tasks need to know something about the environment at run time.
If you are using a version control system like Concurrent Versions System (CVS) then your scripts will need to add tasks to get the files from that system before running the script.
