Group Contexts

The Group context represents combined references to contexts of other type which might help in context management. It is possible to group together Workspace, Workbench, Preferences, etc., contexts together and refer to this group as a single Group context in the Test Editor. The Group Context editor looks quite similar to the Contexts panel in the Test Editor.

Applies the contexts one by one in the order they are displayed.

Context area lists current contexts. Drag contexts to change their order, drop contexts from Test Explorer to add. When group context is executed, contexts are applied in order they listed.

Sometimes context order is important – for instance, if workbench context opens a file in editor, usually workspace context which ensures this file exists should go before workbench context.
