New record using ATF

[Artur ___kiewsk]

Hello,

Today I started my journey with ATF. I wanna to create record using Server option and step called Record insert. Necessary fields has been provided like table and mandatory fields. Test of course was successfull and even provide me sys_id in results. Unnecessary I don't see this new record in the table and sys_id doesn't exist... This is way how it's works ? Or I just miss something ?

Best,

Artur

Artur,

 Purpose of ATF to validate and regression test content after releases and upgrades automatically. Changing the behavior of rollback affects everywhere it is used.

Default in-built functionality of ATF will roll back the changes. The system will have no record of the changes made by ATF after the test is completed. This occurs in cases where test was successful or also when the test failed.

Hope this helps,

Please mark helpful/correct if the content answered your question

Thanks,

Hi Artur,

I came across your post since I am also starting my journey with ATF. 

I was trying to find some answers regarding dataloading the scripts.

Can we add our own data inside ATF?
