Qualitia Automation Studio (QAS) enables you to easily manage Test Data, the set of data that is used during execution. You can view test data, add or delete, and edit existing test data. The Test Cases and Tasks can be reiterated multiple times using test data. Let’s see how this works!
📚Prerequisites
User should have the QAS - Client installed.
User should be assigned to an existing project.
A test scenario should exist.
...
Test Data explorer parameterizes the values that are present under the parameter columns of the test case and task steps only.
If you do not define add test data for a step, then that step and its parent task is underlined with red color. Also, the test case and test scenario are underlined with red color in the left pane of Test Case screen.
...
Toggle - Toggle on or off the TC iteration. Using master toggle, we can mark or unmark all the iterations.
Error Navigator - If there are any errors in our data, we can navigate to that particular error using error navigator.
Delete - Delete the task iteration or the TC iteration.
More Options - Add $NULL$ to all the blank rows by clicking on more options.
Find - Search the values using find.
Expand All - Expand all the iterations.
Collapse All - Collapse all the iterations.
Hide ‘Skipped or unmarked’ Data - This will hide/unhide the skipped columns under the Test Case editor.
Import - A test case or task can be imported using an Excel file.
Export - Export test data in an Excel.

Refresh
In case of multi-user, if user1 made changes then user2 will be notified by a Red Dot near the Refresh button. If you want to apply the changes made by user1, click Refresh.
Also, if user1 is making changes to a test case or a task, it will be locked for user2 (or any other users) and you will not be able to update or edit it. This again will be notified to user2 with a Red Dot near Refresh icon.
Popout
To Edit a field in Test Data, click on the cell that contains the data you want to edit. Once you’ve clicked on the cell, it will be highlighted, and a border will appear around it, indicating that it’s selected and ready for editing. Now, you can either double-click inside the selected cell or directly start typing on the selected cell to start editing.
