Cannot run test script without test case

A basic but overlooked requirement when testing scripts, is the ability to run a script (e.g. from the test script page) WITHOUT an association to a test case .

One of our user is doing a building block approach to testing. The first step is to build standard "boilerplate" scripts (as Jazz keywords) that use "built-in" and user defined execution variables. These "boilerpate" scripts are then invoked from multiple "real-world test" scripts. A complicating factor is that some keywords scripts will invoke (i.e. "nest") other keyword scripts..
Each "Keyword" script must be individually tested BEFORE including them in ANY script that tests real world requirements.. Currently the only (obvious) way to test such keyword scripts is to create otherwise pointless FAKE test cases, just to test these scripts.

    Are those scripts manual or automated?
