Generating Test Data

Test data generation process is launched at the second page of the Test Data Generator Wizard. The data generation is an asyncronious process so that you can switch to other document within the Server Studio framework and continue to use the application while the data is generated.

To start test data generation:

  1. Press Next button on the first page of Test Data Generation wizard
  2. If you want to stop automatically the generation process when any error occurs, check "Stop if error occurs" checkbox. Otherwise, the generation will attempt to continue and the error messages will be displayed in the Status Messages area.
  3. Press Generate button to start data generation process. Press Cancel button if you want to break the data generation process. After data generation is completed, use Failures radiobutton located under the list of tables to filter tables that had problems. Select each table with a problem in the list to see detailed error message in the Status Messages area.

You can press Back button to change data generation rules for a selected table or several tables and repeat data generation. After table's data was generated successfully, the wizard unchecks Run checkbox in the table's list for this table. If you want to repeat test data generation for the table, check 'Run' checkbox in the top table list and press Generate button.
