Copy test conditions between transformers
+41- Contributor
There are occasions when developing that I create a complicated set of test conditions in a tester or via the conditional attributeCreator, and then find that I need to use a testFilter, or consolidate attributeCreators instead and there is no easy way to copy the information from one transformer to another.

+1This was brought up again at FME UC 2017.
It would be very useful to be able to do this. I have many AttributeCreator transformers with complex Parameter Condition Definitions. It is a very tedious and error-prone task to migrate these from an AttributeCreator to the much more useful and flexible AttributeManager. Tester to TestFilter would be another example Such functionality should be part of any/every new transformer which combines/migrates the functionality of existing transformers.

I believe that the FME 2018 beta's now do what you want here. Please advise if not. (And see https://knowledge.safe.com/content/idea/27875/copy-paste-tester-parameters.html for the story of the changes)
