For more information on preparing test data, see Preparing Data for Data-Driven Testing.

Parameters

For the Boolean generator, you can specify the following parameters:

Format

Specifies the format of the boolean values to be generated. The available values are: True/False, Yes/No and 1/0. The default value of the parameter is True/False.

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.
