Schedule Execution Wait Time

Schedule Execution Wait Time

Use

You can define wait times at any position in the test script of a CATT test case.

The current work process is released during the wait time. This can be useful in the following cases:

If a transaction uses V2 update, it is also asynchronous in CATT, so the data may not be available for a following transaction.
If a transaction updates in buffered tables, user function modules (function FUN) may access this data before they have been updated.

CATT functions avoid the buffered table access problem automatically.

Procedure

Define the parameter &LWT as a local variable.

Assign a number or a parameter to the parameter at the points where you want to wait. The number is the wait time in seconds:

Function	Object	Text
SETVAR		&LWT = '5'

Run the test procedure. The test is interrupted for the specified time at each point at which a value is assigned to the variable. The log is as follows:
