The INCLUDE directive allows only to call an entire
script. Even though each test plan entry will be covered
by its own script, the script structure consisting of
SECTION, TEST and STEP should be retained. In order
to be able to access particular parts of a script, the
INCLUDE statement should be extended through the
addition of three optional parameters: SECTION, TEST,
STEP.

Current syntax:

<INCLUDE directive> ::= INCLUDE ‘ " ’<filename>.vts‘ " ’

Proposed syntax:

<INCLUDE directive> ::= INCLUDE ‘ " ’<filename>.vts‘ " ’
<section> ’,’ <test> ‘,’ <step>
<section> ::= <section number> | ‘-‘
<test> ::= <test number> | ‘-‘
<step> ::= <step number> | ‘-‘

In the event that a parameter shall not be specified, ‘-‘
may be used.

    Update from HUST on 1/12/2004:

    This feature has not been added. HUST feels that with the
    ability to now run individual SECTIONS of a test that this
    feature is no longer needed.

    [Mike Danner]
    I think Thomas wanted the ability to include portions of files,
    which is different than executing portions of files. We will
    have to discuss this at the Jan 23 BTL-WG meeting.
    Keeping this issue open for now.
