Inserting Calls to Actions

There are three types of actions calls that can be inserted

1.    An “Insert Call to New…” will create a new action in the current test.
2.    An “Insert Call to Copy…” inserts a copy of the specified action into the current test. If the copied action uses checkpoints and OR objects, these are also copied.
3.    An “Insert Call to Existing…” allows insertion of a call ot a reusable action present in the current test or in another test.
