Hi all!  
I need to ask you if it’s possible to execute a test case that calls a submodel as initial. I need run the submodel as first step. I’m trying to execute the submodel into the test case from another model but is not calling to the flow into the submodel.  
Best regards,  
  
Andrelo!

Hello Andrelo,  
  
For a functional question such as this one, we would recommend that you send a support request to [support@eggplant.io](mailto:support@eggplant.io) rather than post it here. The forums is intended more a a place for sharing SenseTalk coding techniques and tips.  
  
You can call a submodel from the first action in the first state of your main model. This should accommodate your requirement.
