Hi there.

Just a question/comment - I did a small test where I added a Excel Data Connector - to a excel worksheet with 2 line items. The data connector was bound to a test case, but no test case variables were bound to the fields provided by the Excel Data connector (so I agree the Data Connector has no purpose).

The test case was executed twice (as there were 2 line items), I had expected that the test case would execute once as no recording variables were bound to the data connector.

Is this normal/expected behavior? I would expect the test case iterations to execute would be based on the variable bindings and not based just on a bound data connector?

Deleting the data connector caused the test case to execute only once as expected.

Thanks

Brent

Hi Brent,

this is a known behaviour, this can be used to run the same testcase again without binding a varaible. Personally I would not consider this a bug
If you connected a data connector, and did not bind it, you can still run it only once, by setting the rows to run only one row.

Thanks for the prompt response - will do as suggested.
