====== User Object Adaptor ======


===== Introduction =====

This adapter is used to execute the flow information of the TAST execution process, by manipulating variables that are used to obtain and establish values in the adapters, as well as in decision making and loops.

===== Configuration =====

No information is established during initialization of the adapter. It is by using the information of the predefined functions where it is performed.


===== Initialization Parameters =====

There are no Initialization Parameters.

    * sourceFile, to enter the file you want to copy.
    * targetFile, to select where you want this file (it can be the same path). And 
    * preserveFile, a Boolean, if “true” its marked it put the date of the file same as the original one.\\  If the names and the path of the original and the copy are the same, the name of the copy is changed for **copy-“thenameoftheoriginal”.”ext”**.
    
  * **removeVariable():** Removes the variable whose name is entered as a parameter. “Name” is the input parameter used to remove it and it is case sensitive.

    * To: e-mail address of the recipient(s) separated by semicolon. 
    * Subject: subject of the message.
    * Body: message body.
    * TS Results: if this box is checked, the result of the test set execution will be added to the subject, and the result of each test case data will be added to the body of the message.
    * Attachment:  path of the file to be attached. Several files can be attached by adding more parameters. 

  * **sendKeys(String, Delay in miliseconds):** This function sends the keys one by one where the cursor is at this moment. It receives two parameters: keys to send, for example: ~!@#$%^&*()_+{}|:\”<>? abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ çÇáÉñÑä (Optional) Delay in milliseconds between keys, for example 200.

  * **sendKeysCombination(Key+Key, Delay in miliseconds):** This function sends the combinations of the keys (or Java Robot KeyEvent API) one by one separated by a + where the cursor is at this moment. For Java Robot KeyEvent API see link: 'https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/awt/event/KeyEvent.html'.\\ Receive two parameters: Combination of keys to send, for example: “Control+a”, “Control+z”, “Control+alt+3”, “delete”, “VK_CONTROL+VK_A”, “VK_CONTROL+VK_ALT+VK_A”, “VK_DELETE” etc… (Optional) Delay in milliseconds between keys, for example 200.\\  \\ The list of allowed Keys are: ADD, ALT, ARROW_DOWN, ARROW_LEFT, ARROW_RIGHT, ARROW_UP, BACKSPACE, BACK_SPACE, CANCEL, CLEAR, COMMAND, CONTROL, DECIMAL, DELETE, DIVIDE, DOWN, END, ENTER, EQUALS, ESCAPE, F1, F10, F11, F12, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9, HELP, HOME, INSERT, LEFT, LEFT_ALT, LEFT_CONTROL, LEFT_SHIFT, META, MULTIPLY, NULL, NUMPAD0, NUMPAD1, NUMPAD2, NUMPAD3, NUMPAD4, NUMPAD5, NUMPAD6, NUMPAD7, NUMPAD8, NUMPAD9, PAGE_DOWN, PAGE_UP, PAUSE, RETURN, RIGHT, SEMICOLON, SEPARATOR, SHIFT, SPACE, SUBTRACT, TAB, UP

  * **setArrayVariable():** Creates or modifies an array cell. The setVariable function is used to create the array and the variable created is used as name in the first parameter of the setArrayVariable function.\\ The variable type of the value you want to modify has to be either Boolean, Date, Double, Integer or String.\\ You must specify the column number and row number to access the cell you want to create or modify. \\ For example: ColNum(1) and RowNum(2) would get you the second cell of the array.

  * **setVariable():** Creates a variable whose name is entered as a parameter. The variable types are: TastTableData, String, Integer, Double, Date or Boolean.\\ To create an array from this function, the user has to create a variable type TASTTABLEDATA and add in the value box the value like the following example:\\ [ [\\ {"type":"STRING","value":"myfirstdata"}\\ ,\\ {"type":"STRING","value":"myseconddata"}\\ ,\\ {"type":"INTEGER","value":"3"}\\ ],[\\ {"type":"STRING","value":"segovia"}\\ ,\\ {"type":"STRING","value":"avila"}\\ ,\\ {type":"INTEGER","value":"24"}\\ ] ]\\ ¨The same happens with: TASTROWTABLEDATA\\ [ [ \\  {"type":"DOUBLE","value":"5.25"}\\ ,\\ {"type":"DATE","value":"05/08/2019"}\\ ,\\ {"type":"BOOLEAN","value":"false"}\\ ] ]\\ \\ The allowed types of variables are:\\ STRING; INTEGER; DOUBLE; DATE; BOOLEAN.\\ \\ Also the first value in a tastTableData and tastRowTableData is 1.\\ \\ As posible confusion cases, to use the elements of a table, for example to use "value":"05/08/2019" the user can do it like: #nameOfTheTastRowTableData.getCellValue(2), this way the user will obtain the value of the example in the tastRowTableData.\\ \\ Another case could be the user capability to edit the space in certain position of the “array” for example to edit: "value":"05/08/2019" in tastRowTableData, could be done with: #nameOfTheTastRowTableData.setCellValue(2, "05/08/2019").
    
  * **systemCloseProgram():** Close system program. Closes the Outlook of your system. With the input parameter you choose between two options, “hxoutlook” or “outlook”.
