 <p>This guide aims to provide the best practices for using the scripting capabilities provided by COSMOS. Scripts are used to automate a series of activities for operations or testing. The goal of this document is to ensure scripts are written that are simple, easy to understand, maintainable, and correct. Guidance on some of the key details of using the COSMOS Script Runner is also provided.</p>
 <h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_fF9Z" id=concepts>Concepts<a href=#concepts class=hash-link aria-label="Direct link to Concepts" title="Direct link to Concepts"></a></h2>
 <p>COSMOS supports both Ruby and Python for writing scripts. Ruby and Python are very similar scripting languages and most of this guide applies directly to both. Where examples are used, both a Ruby and Python example are given.</p>

 <p>Note that all these user input methods provide the user the option to “Cancel”. When cancel is clicked, the script is paused but remains at the user input line. When hitting “Go” to the continue, the user will be re-prompted to enter the value.</p>

 <p>When possible, a useful design pattern is to write your scripts such that they can run without prompting for any user input. This allows the scripts to be more easily tested and provides a documented default value for any user input choices or values. To implement this pattern, all manual steps such as ask(), prompt(), and infinite wait() statements need to be wrapped with an if statement that checks the value of $manual in Ruby or RunningScript.manual in Python. If the variable is set, then the manual steps should be executed. If not, then a default value should be used.</p>

 <p>COSMOS Script Runner operating on a script suite automatically generates a report that shows the PASS/FAILED/SKIPPED state for each script. You can also inject arbitrary text into this report using the example as follows. Alternatively, you can simply use print text into the Script Runner message log.</p>
