More tips:

  • Enterprise Tester will automatically import your records in the same order they appear in the CSV file. If you wish to control the order in which records are imported, add a column to your CSV file called Order Number and number records in the order you would like them to appear.

  • Breaking entities into packages of less than 200 individual items will ensure optimal performance.

  • Field mappings must be one-to-one, two import fields cannot map to one Enterprise Tester field.

  • Some fields will prompt you for additional information pertaining to that field e.g. you will be asked to indicate if the value in the CSV file is the package name or ID.

  • You must supply the ID if you are updating fields

  • You must NOT supply the ID if you want to create new Requirements or Test Scripts.

  • If you do map the ID field then every entity must have an ID. You cannot update and create new during the same import.

  • You cannot blank out a mapping once it has been made without restarting the entire wizard.
     
  • An invalid ID number will cause your import to fail. In all other instances, leave ID blank or exclude from your import CSV.
