Saving business object data

You can use Data pool to save business object data during testing to eliminate the need to reenter business data with each test iteration.

After entering the same data numerous times, you will be thankful for Data pool, an Integration Designer utility. Data pool allows you to save business object data for subsequent tests. To use Data pool, perform the steps in the following procedure:

Procedure
