Example
The following example shows the code for a test function to run a report and a request page handler function to test the request page. This example requires that you create the following:
-
A test codeunit called SaveAsPDF. For more information, see How to: Create Test Codeunits and Test Functions.
-
A test function in the test codeunit called TestSaveAsPDF. For more information, see How to: Create Test Codeunits and Test Functions.
-
A handler function of type RequestPageHandler called ReqPageHandler. This handler function has one parameter called RequestPage of Type TestRequestPage and Subtype Customer - Top 10 List. The RequestPage parameter is specified as VAR and is passed by reference to the handler function. For more information, see How to: Create Handler Functions.
This example also requires that you create the following variable in the C/AL Globals window of the SaveAsPDF codeunit.
