Using TestComplete, you can generate test values of different types and then store these values to TestComplete variables or Excel files. This approach lets you avoid creating the data storages that will contain test data manually, and you do not have to populate these storages with the data manually. For more information on preparing test data, see Preparing Data for Data-Driven Testing.

This section contains detailed information explaining how you can generate test data using TestComplete. It also describes how you can use predefined generators (data types) that are available in TestComplete and how you can create user-defined generators.
