The Phone Number generator is used to generate phone numbers with LoadComplete. Using this generator type you can populate a list variable with arbitrary phone numbers and then use this data in your tests.
To activate the Phone Number generator, do the following:
-
In the Generate Values dialog, select Phone Number from the Data Generator list.
-
Activate any user-defined generator based on the Phone Number standard generator as it is described above.
Parameters
After you have selected the Phone Number generator, you are offered to specify some additional parameters for the generated data. The parameters are:
Number format
Specifies a format for the generated phone numbers. The default value of the parameter is XXX-XXX-XXXX.
Duplicate each value … time(s)
Specifies how many times each generated value will be duplicated. The default value of the parameter is False.
After you specify the needed parameters, you can obtain the sample values that have been generated by the engine. The values are displayed in the Sample field.
Also, you can discard all the changes you made in the generator’s parameters and restore the parameters set by default. For this purpose, click Set Default Values below the Sample field.
If you are going to use the same settings in several variables or if you configure one generator in the same manner from time to time, it is much easier to save the selected generator with the specified parameter values as a user-defined generator. For this purpose, click the Save to User-Defined button below the Sample field.
