In the integration test client, a data pool is provided. You can
save values to the data pool, edit values in the data pool editor, and reuse
values from the data pool. This enables you to more easily manage the values
for your operations and manual emulations.
To use the data pool editor:
- Complete one of the following steps:
- If you want to open the data pool editor and have its contents filtered
to show only values of a specific simple or complex type, select a value of
the specific type in the value editor and then click the Data Pool button.
- If you want to open the data pool editor and not filter its contents,
click the Data Pool icon.
The data pool editor opens.
- If you want to filter the contents of the data pool editor to show
values of a different type, specify the name of the type in the Filter
for type field. For example, string. The Values list
is automatically updated to show only those values of the specified type.
- If you want to sort the values, click the Name, Type,
or Value column header. For example, clicking the Name column
header sorts the values by name.
- When you have finished working with the data pool editor, click
either Update or OK to save
your changes. (The button that appears is dependent on how you opened the
data pool editor.)
To learn about the many other actions that you can perform in both
the data pool editor and the value editor, such as setting single
or multiple values using context menu items or predefined values, see the
topic "Value and data pool editors."
