[Bug] Test steps are not being shows for all python tests

[cecille]

Describe the bug

There are a bunch of tests where we have steps_ functions defined, but the individual steps are not displayed in the GUI

Steps to reproduce the behavior

This happens for opstate tests for example, but I assume also others.

@antonio-amjr can you try to reproduce this with TC_OPSTATE_2_1.py?

Sure, I'll take a look

@cecille and @fabiowmm ,

The OPSTATE and OVENOPSTATE tests are falling into the legacy python test category. That is happening because the Python Test Parser is expecting a ast.List type from the "steps_" method, but instead is receiving a ast.Call.

So the problem is that the OPSTATE/OVENOPSTATE tests are the only ones, I believe, that are using another method to retrieve the steps, like shown below:

The python_test_parser.py method verifying the test steps type.

The original TC_OPSTATE_2_1 steps method that triggers the error.

Changing the TC_OPSTATE_2_1 steps method successfully adds to the correct suite and show the steps in execution.

---

I think that the steps are specific to tests and shouldn't be inside the TC_OpstateCommon.py at all. And to solve this would be just moving the steps to each related file.

What is your take on this?

It seems that there's a feature already in progress that solves this issue:
