You may want to use such parameters in automatic processes …
Acceptance Test Library (ATL) in F&O isn’t a new feature, but many people aren’t aware of it, therefore let me try to raise awareness a bit. ATL is used in automated tests written by developers and its purpose is to easily create test data and verify results. Here is an example of such a test: …

One such complication occurs if the class that you want to test uses other objects. It may be a problem for several reasons – it’s code that we don’t want to test in …
In the previous post, I talked about what unit testing is and how such tests should be designed. Let’s jump straight into X++ code this time. Unit tests are methods and we need a class to hold them. Such a container of test methods is called a test case and it’s simply a class extending …

When I hear “automated testing” in Dynamics AX world, people almost always mean replicating what a human tester does – opening a form, clicking around and so on. It makes some sense, because …
