Multiple test as steps each with different browser and data

Hi,

Hope you can help.

We have a create accounts test that needs to be run on different browsers and with different data.  We have created the following 4 tests and set the browser type in the properties on each test.

Created Test 1, properties for the test has browser type set as Chrome

Created Test 2, properties for the test has browser type set as Firefox

Created Test 3, properties for the test has browser type set as Internet Explorer

Created Test 4, properties for the test has browser type set as Safari

All above test are identicle, except the data it calls and the browser property

We then created test A which calls each of the above tests as a test as step as we want to have just the 1 test rather than 4.  Test A was created with no browser set in the properties.

When we try and run test A from the normal test repository(i.e not in a schedule list), it just runs on the browser you choose to execute on rather than the one set on the test as step and when you add it to Test List and run from there it asks for a default browser again rather than using the ones set on the test as step.

What is the best practice to achieve the above,? do we just have the 4 individual tests and if so how do we get it to run on the browser we set?

Kind regards,

Tracy
