Remarks
This method runs in the TestContext of its containing test step because the test has not yet been started.
The following actions are typically performed during this phase:
- Configuring the PrimaryTestStep in anticipation of test execution.
- Accessing user data via Data.
- Skipping the test by throwing an appropriate SilentTestException.
The following actions are forbidden during this phase because they would either go unnoticed or have undesirable side-effects upon test execution:
- Modifying the PatternTest object in any way.
