How data set works when we run the same test for multiple user?

Hi,

Could someone help me in understanding the mechanism of data set for running a test for 200 parallel executions using 200 VMs. Followings are some scenarios from my test:
 
1. In my login data set I have 600 records. If I set the rotation as 200, will it pick 200 users from my data set and run in 200 VMs and the rest 400 will be ignored?
2.  Apart from my login data set, I have other data sets which are linked to the test. So my question is while running the test for 200 users how subject7 will consider only login data set for iteration of 200 times and at the same time will it not consider other data sets?

Hi Niranjan,

Using rotations determines how many times to run a test case using specific datasets which are determined on the 2nd tab in the execution set creation form. So if you make your selection for 200 datasets on the 2nd tab and you want to run the test case once using only these datasets, you can leave rotations to the default value of 1. That way, you will have 200 executions with each run using a specific dataset (the 400 will be ignored as you did not select them on the 2nd tab).

To answer your second question, that all depends on what you select on the 2nd tab. If some datasets are selected while others are not, only the selected ones will execute.
