Launch points

A launch point is a complete script configuration. The configuration consists of the target application or context, the variables that are passed between the application and the script, and the body of the script.

You can create a script and associate a launch point to the script. Alternatively, you can create a launch point and associate it to variables and scripts. You can share a script among multiple launch points. Scripts and launch points can be promoted from development to production by using Migration Manager.

When a launch point is deactivated, the scripts associated with that launch point do not run. To debug an application, you can deactivate a launch point to test the behavior of the application without the script.

The status of the automation script does not affect how the scripting framework executes the script. A script in draft status is treated the same way as a script with a status of Active.
