Allow cloning of test case

***Was developed in v3.0***
Perhaps this is already a feature, but I couldn't not find it: I would love to be able to clone a test case. Just cloning the sessions still forces me to repeat a lot of the set up work. Currently, if I want to create an identical test case with the exception of one or two settings (for example, the datasource use to parametrize a set of requests), I have to redo all my settings like specific think times for pages and Cache Control settings. It would be much better if I could clone the entire test case and tweak it as needed.

We actually do not have the Clone Test Case feature yet. We will try to develop it in v3.0. In the meantime, use this workaround
- Create a copy of the .saz file in the same location, and give it a %name%_1
- Open script editor.
- Clone (copy and paste) the Testcase node, and change the Name to new saz file name %name%_1 and Id to a new Guid.
- Find every node that has an attribute TestCase. Clone it and change the TestCase property to the new Guid.
- Hit save and exit

Thanks for the workaround; it looks like it will definitely cut down on the work of replicating a test case. As far as I can tell, that will allow me to "clone" the general test case settings (like %100 new VU and iteration delay time) and the parameter substitutions, but not the page settings (like primary requests and manual think times for each page). Is that correct?

It should preserve all page settings. Let me know if it doesn't.

It does! That's fantastic  I didn't realize that just importing the .saz file would save all those settings. That's the part that was the most troublesome for me.
