To Run a Clash test using api

Anonymous — Fri, 07 Oct 2016 05:20:20 GMT

Inside a plugin, I am creating a new clash test and trying to run it. Using this command "documentClash.TestsData.TestsRunAllTests();" it runs without any errors. However, if I try using "documentClash.TestsData.TestsRunTest(oTest);" where oTest is the newly created instance, it throws "ArgumentException Argument is not in Clash Detective Parameter name: test". No other tests are defined in the model !

SavedItemCollection clashTests = documentClash.TestsData.Tests;
documentClash.TestsData.TestsRunTest(clashTests[clashTests.Count-1] as ClashTest);

You can also try this:

private void RunClash(string clashTestName) { Document doc = NavisApp.ActiveDocument; DocumentClash clash = doc.GetClash(); DocumentClashTests clashTests = clash.TestsData; using (ClashTest clashTest = (ClashTest)clashTests.Tests.FirstOrDefault(t => t.DisplayName == clashTestName)) { clash.TestsData.TestsRunTest(clashTest); } }

Hello jabowabo,

this method is really great but i have a small issue if i get test and try to run it the object of this test is disposed and i can't use it ( i remove using block to avoid disposing of clashtest but it still disposed)
