Dependent PowerShell module was recently updated and removed argument default values. Discovered an incorrect Paramter variable name for command timeout which was causing it fail.
Results
Execution of the template would fail due to command timeout being null.
Before
Command timeout Parameter was misspelled, value not taken into consideration during execution.
After
Correct Parameter now specified.
Pre-requisites
[X] Id should be a GUID that is not 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
NOTE If you are modifying an existing step template, please make sure that you do not modify the Id property (updating the Id will break the Library sync functionality in Octopus).
[X] Version should be incremented, otherwise the integration with Octopus won't update the step template correctly
[X] Parameter names should not start with $
[X] Step template parameter names (the ones declared in the JSON, not the script body) should be prefixed with a namespace so that they are less likely to clash with other user-defined variables in Octopus (see this issue). For example, use an abbreviated name of the step template or the category of the step template).
[X] LastModifiedBy field must be present, and (optionally) updated with the correct author
[X] The best practices documented here have been applied
[ ] If a new Category has been created:
[ ] An image with the name {categoryname}.png must be present under the step-templates/logos folder
[ ] The switch in the humanize function in gulpfile.babel.js must have a case statement corresponding to it
