Generally, keywords are listed in BLUE.
However, keywords that have been deprecated in favor of newer or better keywords should be listed in RED.
The reference does not seem to accurately reflect this just yet and needs to be 'fixed'. This is not a high priority because 'deprecated' keywords will work indefinitely. However, maintenance or updates to the keyword implementation may not occur if a replacement keyword does exist.
The SAFS Keyword Reference shows which engines support which keywords through small colored icons. The text inside the icon is a key to the supporting engine. These are listed below:
| ABT | Abbot | |
| DRD | Android | |
| IOS | Apple IOS | |
| RC | IBM Rational Robot | |
| RJ | IBM Rational Functional Tester | |
| WR | Mercury WinRunner | |
| SDC | SAFS/DriverCommands | |
| SE | Selenium | |
| TC | AutomatedQA Test Complete | |
| TID | SAFSDRIVER (SAFS Tool-Independent Driver) |
SAFS defines multiple record types in SAFS Record Formats standard. Driver Commands (C) and Component Function Test Commands (T) can be made to support "Warning Expected" (W) and/or "Failure Expected" (F) modes. Thus: CW, CF, TW, and TF are valid record types for keywords that support those modes.
We have color coded the engine icons to indicate the support provided by each engine for every keyword. The color legend for the engine icons is shown below:
|
| Normal support. No support for Expected Warnings or Failures. |
|
| Normal and Expected Warning Support. No Expected Failure support. |
|
| Normal and Expected Failure Support. No Expected Warning support. |
|
| Normal, Expected Warning, and Expected Failure all supported. |
We will expand upon the information in this doc as time and resources permits.
