Description

my TC's are in different folders in the same suite. But the execution profile is only on Run level.
Would it be possible to have an argument option per folder and per suite? A so called suite-execution profile and a folder-execution profile overruling (or extending) the normal execution profile?

Research direction

Start by reviewing how the existing run-level execution profile is handled in RIDE and how suite and folder structure is represented. Done means supporting suite-level and folder-level profiles that can override or extend the normal execution profile.
