The ITestBase type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Actions	Gets a collection of test action objects that are stored in the order that they are to be executed.
	Area	Gets or sets the classification or functional area to which this test belongs.
	CustomFields	Gets a work item tracking collection of user-defined fields that are registered with the server.
	DateCreated	Gets the date that this object was created.
	DateModified	Gets the date that this object was last modified.
	Description	Gets or sets the description of this object.
	Error	Gets an error message indicating what is wrong with this object. (Inherited from IDataErrorInfo.)
	Exists	Gets a value that indicates whether this object has been destroyed and the caller has access to the object.
	Id	Gets the identifier. (Inherited from IIdentifiable<TKey>.)
	InvalidProperties	Gets a list of property names that are invalid. (Inherited from IPropertyOwner.)
	IsDirty	Gets a value that indicates whether any properties have changed since the last refresh, fetch, or save. (Inherited from IPropertyOwner.)
	Item	Gets the error message for the property with the given name. (Inherited from IDataErrorInfo.)
	Links	Gets a work item tracking collection of links to other artifacts.
	Owner	Gets or sets the identity of the person who is responsible for this test if it is automated, or the person who is responsible for maintaining the test steps if it is a manual test.
	Priority	Gets or sets the priority for executing this test.
	Project	Gets the test project. (Inherited from ITestObject<T>.)
	Reason	Gets or sets the reason that this object is in its current state.
	Revision	Gets the current revision number for this object. (Inherited from ITestObject<T>.)
	State	Gets or sets the current state of this object.
	TestParameters	Gets a collection of all parameters that are used in the test steps in this test and all parameters that are included in any shared steps.
	Title	Gets or sets the title of this test or step.
	UserData	Gets or sets an arbitrary object or value that is not persisted, but allows test management objects to be dynamically extended. (Inherited from ITestObject<T>.)
	WorkItem	Gets the underlying work item.

Methods

	Name	Description
	CreateSharedStepReference	If this object is a test case, creates a new shared step reference, which gives access to another set of actions.
	CreateTestActionGroup	Creates a new test action group, to which steps or other groups may be added.
	CreateTestStep	Creates a new test step.
	FindAction	Returns the specified action from the Actions property by using the given ID number.
	Flush	Brings the work item fields up to date by using the changes that are made in this object.
	OverrideParameter	Overrides the specified parameter, which allows for it to be removed from the steps in this specific test case while it retains data about the parameter from other iterations.
	Refresh	Refreshes the current item from the server and resets the values to those that are stored in the item. Any cached data is discarded.
	RenameParameter	Renames a parameter by using the provided parameter name and updates all actions that refer to the referenced parameter.
	ReplaceParameter	Finds all instances where the provided parameter is used in actions, deletes any iteration data for each instance, and replaces it by using the provided literal text.
	Save	Brings the work item fields up to date by calling the Flush method and then stores each work item to the server.

Events

	Name	Description
	PropertyChanged	Occurs when a property value changes. (Inherited from INotifyPropertyChanged.)
	TestParameterDeletingEvent	The event that is raised when test parameters are about to be deleted.
