Changing the dataset record selection order

The test dataset record selection order determines how a test script accesses records in the test script's associated dataset when you play back the test script.

  1. In the Projects view, select the test script that is associated with the dataset that you want to change.
  2. Right-click the selected test script and click Properties.
  3. Click Functional Test Script.
    The Functional Test Script Properties page opens. Test UI uses the test dataset for the test script you selected.
  4. To change the dataset record selection order, click Dataset Record Selection Order , and then select the following record selection order:
    • Sequential: You can use this option to make a test script access records in the dataset in the order that they appear in the dataset. The sequential record selection order is the default dataset record selection order.

    • Random: You can use this option to make a test script access records in the dataset randomly. A random record selection order accesses every record in the dataset once.

  5. Click Apply.
The dataset record selection order is modified.
