The Global Data Repository (GDR) is a user-friendly data storage and management tool used for parameterizing test scenarios. It allows you to execute the same test case with different inputs, broadening test coverage from a single value to multiple values.
GDR datasets facilitate iterating the entire test case with multiple datasets and offer flexibility for users to manage data. Access to GDR is available to all users with project access.
Follow the steps to proceed with linking GDR in a test case.
Select and click Continuous Test Automation from the launchpad.
On your created Test Case, follow the below steps for linking GDR.
Click on the Project Workspace folder and Create a New GDR.
A new GDR page will open which is similar to an Excel sheet.
Rename and Columns and enter the data.
Save the Data.
Go to the respective test case and on the test step where you want to add the GDR sheet. Click the Edit Input data arrow key.
Expand the Global Data Repository Folder and map the column name with the individual values.
Save the test case. Click on the Run Button and execute.
The test case will now get executed with the saved data.
