Syntax

Checking the start mode of application Hide the details

<Result> = InTestMode()

<Result>: Boolean

True if the application is run:
from the WINDEV editor (window or project Go).
from the editor of Reports and Queries (report Go).
in debug on Mobile.
in component debug via executable.
from the WEBDEV editor (page or project Go).
from the WEBDEV administrator (Test button).
in debug mode on an Android device (or if the application generated for debug mode is started on the Android device).
False otherwise.
Special cases:
In AWP mode, this parameter always corresponds to False.
In a REST web service, this parameter always corresponds to False.
This parameter always corresponds to False.

Checking the origin of start mode of application test Hide the details

<Result> = InTestMode([<Type of execution>])

<Result>: Boolean

True if the test is run from the requested element,
False otherwise.
Remark: The launch mode taken into account is that of the test origin.. For example, if the test of the report is run from a window displayed by a project GO, the origin of test will be the project GO.

<Type of execution>: Integer constant (or combination of constants)

Origin of test execution:
tmPage Test run from a page Go.
tmProcedure Test run from a procedure Go.
tmProject Test run from a project Go.
tmQuery Test run from a query Go.
tmReport Test run from a report Go.
tmTest Test run from the Go of an automated test.

Remarks

Other possibilities

InSimulatorMode is used to differentiate between the test mode on the mobile device and on the simulator.
InReportsAndQueriesMode is used to differentiate between the test mode from the report editor and the test mode from Reports & Queries.

GO from Reports & Queries

InTestMode and InReportsAndQueriesMode return True when a report is tested from Reports and Queries ("GO" button).

We advise you to replace the standard test:

IF InTestMode() = True THEN
	Trace("...")
END

by the following test:

IF InTestMode() = True AND InReportsAndQueriesMode() = False THEN
	Trace("...")
END
