Example - Case 2: Retrieving a return value

Suppose that you would like to get a value returned from the following snippet of JavaScript code.

            
                function addNumber(num1, num2){var sum=num1+num2; return 'Total is '+sum;}; return addNumber(1, 2);
            
        

        
        	window	script	variable	exception
exec script	sapp main	function addNumber(num1, num2){var sum=num1+num2; return 'Total is '+sum;}; return addNumber(1, 2);	>>returned_values	
        
    

Result

• To execute multiple commands in sequence, separate them with semi-colon ( ; ) delimiters in the script argument.
• script argument: It may contain native JavaScript code, calls to JavaScript functions within the specified web page, or a mix of the two.
• variable argument:
  • This built-in action only retrieves the value from a JavaScript function with the declaration of the return statement (See the example above).
  • If the variable in argument variable has not been declared, the action creates it as a global.
  • If the variable argument is left empty, TestArchitect supplies a global variable with the name _result.
• exception argument:
  • The message is returned based on specific web platforms.
  • If the value in argument exception has not been declared, the action creates it as a global.
  • If the exception argument’s value is left empty, TestArchitect supplies a global variable with the name _exception.
• To specify a string, please enclose it in single quotes (the character ‘).
• This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string <ignore> is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to <ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
