Hi Mohammadyaseen, There is no option in QF-Test to restrict functionality the way you requested. Indeed I think having an expert team providing a proper set of reusable procedures is very important and efficient. But limiting end users to just those procedures will lead to quickly blocking them in all situations where no 100% fitting procedure is available and it will be hardly possible to provide all relevant procedures. This deadlocks and need to for too many specific procedures will result in overhead, delays and frustration for both the end users and the expert team. I recommend to install guidelines how users shall effectively build up their test-suites by use of given library procedures and why they should avoid too much specific code. Also define a way how to feed back generic parts to the expert team to transform those into library procedures. A review process might help to ensure quality of test-suites. If necessary, you could install some kind of automatic sanity check, e.g. by parsing QF-Test XML test-suites and warn if certain metrics are not met. I also recommend to have a look at http://www.qfs.de/qftest/manual/en/bp_organize.html#sec_bpOrganize which contains helpful hints on test-suite organization. Hope this helps.
