When passing parameters from a Silk Central test to a Silk Test Workbench test, these parameters must be defined as input parameters in the Silk Test Workbench script and they must have the same name in Silk Central as in the script. The following data types should be used:
| Silk Central | Silk Test Workbench |
|---|---|
| String | Text |
| Number | Number (Long) |
| Number | Number (Long Long) |
| Number | Enumeration |
| Float | Number (Double) |
| Boolean | Boolean (True/False) |
Predefined parameter names in Silk Central start with a hash while Silk Test Workbench does not allow parameter names starting with a hash. To pass a predefined parameter from Silk Central to a Silk Test Workbench test, you have to create an additional parameter without the hash in the name in Silk Central and map the predefined parameter to the new parameter.
Silk Central will then replace the placeholder with the actual directory and pass it to the Silk Test Workbench script.
