2. Click the Menu available on the top right of the screen and you will get the following options:

• Expand the Data option and select Manage Test Data:

To define the test data, follow these steps:

On the Manage Test Data page:

• Enter a Name for the test data in the Name field.
• Keep the Environment Name value as default.
• Keep the Execution Mode to Sequential.
• In the Test Data text area, define your test data using key-value pairs.

For example, if you need to define the following test data for employee details:

You should define it in HuLoop Test Data Format as shown:

EmployeeID=101
Name=John Smith
Department=HR
Salary=60000
Joining Date=23-09-2022

Note:

• Avoid using commas in numerical values (e.g., Salary=60000 instead of Salary=60,000), as commas are interpreted as separators for multiple values.
• If you need to include a comma within a value, enclose the entire value in double quotes (e.g., Address=”123, Main Street, NY”).

5. Click Save to store the test data.
