Use DPL Data Sources in AIQ

Use DPL Data Sources in AIQ

TheDPLs useprovide reusable data to AIQ tests. They keep test data and data-generation rules separate from Scenario Editor steps so scenarios remain easier to maintain.

Basic workflow

  1. Create or select the DPL that represents the required data source or generated data rule.
  2. Map the needed DPL fields to the Scenario Editor inputs.
  3. Choose the execution behavior, such as using the next available row or reusing a value.
  4. Run a short validation execution and review the output before using the DPL in a larger run.

Good practices

  • Use clear field names that match the business meaning of athe data.
  • Keep credentials and environment-specific values out of the DPL is an easy task, but it is still a very powerful tool. There are some concepts that may need to be clear to understand the full power of DPLs.
