ATF - Impersonating the Technical Owner from a Catalog item record

Hi, I'm trying to enhance an ATF test not hard coding the impersonation of the technical owner for a Catalog Item, since this may change and make the test fail. At the moment I'm impersonating a specific user.

Basically I want to pick the technical owner field value: 'owner' from a record in the sc_cat_item table and impersonate it. I have tried several server side script steps I found in the community and other sources but nothing seems to work.

Hi @luiscarrion 

That’s not possible because it is ATF. We need to define which user should be used to run the test case, and we also need to inform the system which user is being impersonated.
