START TEST-CASE Command

The START TEST-CASE command introduces a section of code that is grouped together into a test case. The section is terminated by an END TEST-CASE command.

The START TEST-CASE command must include a description of the test case. The test case description and test case status are written to the report log when the test case is executed.

Test cases cannot be nested, so a test case must be terminated with an END TEST-CASE command before a new test case section can be started. However, there is no restriction on calling another Script that contains test cases, from within a test case section.
