Timing

The automation tools modules for timing measure test run times or set wait times. You can set multiple timers with different names in any order. However, you must start and stop a timer within the same test case. You can't use this functionality to measure time across multiple test cases.

TBox Start Timer

Starts the timer.

Value	Description
ID	Name of the timer.

TBox Stop Timer

Stops the timer. After the test run, you can view the result on the Test runs page. Additionally, Tosca Cloud saves the result to a buffer with the name of the timer.

Value	Description
ID	Name of the timer you want to stop.
Maximal Duration	You can compare the actual timer result to an expected result. Enter the expected result in milliseconds in the Value column and use action mode Verify.

TBox Wait

In some cases, you may need delays between test cases or test steps. For example, if you want to open a web application that takes time to load. With the modules TBox Wait, you can specify wait times at any point.

Value	Description
Duration	Time in milliseconds you want Tosca Cloud to wait between test steps or test cases.
