Issue/Introduction
During the recording phase, VSE Recorder examines each transaction for arguments or parameters and automatically classifies some arguments as a magic string.
When creating a new service using the VSE Recorder, we automatically get magic strings in the responses.
How to disable this behavior?
Environment
Resolution
The property 'lisa.magic.string.min.length' is used to define the minimum length of argument value in a VSE transaction request that is required to consider that argument for constructing a magic string out of it.
The default value is 3.
Magic string cannot be disabled, but this property can be set to a higher value and the VSE Recorder would not consider arguments with fewer characters than what specified in the property.
To change the minimum length for magic string, add the following property to the local.properties for Workstation.
With a value of 20, the VSE recorder will not examine arguments with minimum 20 characters of length.
The Workstation needs to be restarted after the local.properties file is updated.
Additional Information
Refer to section "Magic Dates" in the documentation of the DevTest release you are running.
