5.5.2. The Properties View

The Properties View is in the upper right-hand corner of each perspective. The Properties View shows details about the selected item in a browser or editor.

If you select something from a browser, you can see its details in the Properties View, but you can’t edit them. You can only edit details from within an editor. Read-only fields in the Properties View have a lock icon at their left-hand side.

Icons in the Properties View

When the Properties View contains data (i.e. a filled-in parameter value field), there are certain icons to help you understand the data.

To simplify navigation, the toolbar of the Properties View contains the Jump to Central Test Data Set command. If the currently selected parameter references a central data set through a ?getCentralTestDataSetValue function call (see in Section 3.14.6, “Using functions as data for Test Cases”) then this command tries to identify the data set and opens its Editor. In case the referenced row and cell are identifiable, these are automatically selected in the Data Sets View (Section 5.5.3, “The Data Sets View”).
