Opening newer Oracle Application Testing (OATS) scripts in older version


Earlier I was using Oracle Application Testing Suite (OATS) version 12.2 & upgraded to version 12.4 to check the functionality & recent changes. I forgot to take a backup of my scripts. After opening the new version, it migrated all scripts to the latest version. Since i have to share these scripts with other people who still have 12.2, how can i get these newly migrated scripts to open in the older version?

I installed the older version again to try & get them to the older version, but I cannot open them either. Any suggestions on how I can get them to open in older OATS version?


Solution

  • I copied the scripts to a notepad from the 12.4 OATS version. Re-installed the 12.2 version & created the scripts again.

    Apparently, once the scripts have been migrated to a higher version, it is not possible to migrate them back to the lower version. So a back up would be necessary or you en up with double the work
