 +Click on the orange disk button to save the changes before proceeding to the next step.
 +
 +=== Generate DataTable ===
 +
 +To generate the combinations of the variables, select an algorithm from the "Overall Strength" dropdown list on the upper-right corner of the screen:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_selectAlgorithm.png?200}} 
 +
 +Select "Pairwise" for now and click the generate button next to it.  You should see the //DataTable// populated with rows of data:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_firstGen.png?600}} 
 +
 +The system generated 25 combinations (rows).  Since Pairwise was used to generate the combinations, all pairs of any two variables should be represented by at least one row in the DataTable.
 +
 +=== Adjustments ===
 +You may have noticed that "PaymentType" and "CardNum" are messed up, for example, we are seeing payment type of VISA has the non-VISA card number, which is not desired.  
 +
 +We need to make "CardNum" variable to match variable "PaymentType". To fix this issue, on variable "CardNumselect select "PaymentType" from the "Coupling" dropdown list as show below and re-generate DataTable:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_secondGen.png?600}} 
 +
 +Now the payment types and credit card numbers are matching correctly.
 +
 +Feel free to experiment with other algorithms and compare the # of rows generated in DataTable by different algorithms.
 +
 +Next step is to attach this data set to the "CheckOut" transition on the model.
  
  
 ==== Attach Data Set to Transition ==== ==== Attach Data Set to Transition ====
 +
 +In this step, we will attach the data set "PaymentOptions" we have created to the transition "CheckOut" in our model.
 +
 +Open the transition properties by double-clicking on the transition label or through transition context menu and select "PaymentOptions" from the "Data Set" dropdown list:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_TransProp.png?300}} 
 +
 +When a data set is attached to the transition, the sequencer that generates test cases from the model will ensure the test cases generates will cover the transition the number of times to loop through all of the rows in the data set.
 +
 +Save the changes.  We are now ready to generate the test cases. 
 +
 +==== Generate Test Cases ====
 +
 +Select "Optimal" sequencer (default) and run the model.  Our expectation is that at least 25 test cases would be generated from the state model with each test case covering "CheckOut" transition to consume a row from the data set.
 +
 +The best way to show this is through {{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_testcaseGraph.png?linkonly | Test Case Graph}} in //RESULT// tab. 
 +
 +Notice that in {{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_testcaseGraph.png?linkonly | Test Case Graph}}, there are 25 test cases and each test case covers the transition "CheckOut" matching 25 rows in the data set.
 +
 +To confirm that each row in data set is used, let's print out the data row as model runs - the test cases generated and executed. 
 +
 +To write a line of script in TRIGGER for transition "CheckOut", select script context menu for transition "CheckOut":
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_menuTransScript.png?250}}
 +
 +IDE should navigate to //SCRIPT// tab.  Since the TRIGGER for transition "CheckOut" has not been created, you will be prompted to create it:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_ScriptAddDialog.png?500}}
 +
 +Click "OK" to create the skeleton TRIGGER script for the transition:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_ScriptCheckOut.png?500}}
 +
 +Alternatively you can add the skeleton TRIGGER script for the transition by pressing Ctrl-I while your cursor is placed on a blank line in //SCRIPT// tab and select transition "CheckOut":
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_AddTrigger.png?100}}
 +
 +
 +
 +TRIGGER script is just a //groovy// function, go ahead and add two lines of scripts as show below:
 +
 +{{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_TriggerCheckOut.png?500}}
 +
 +
 +The "log" scripts above prints the current row of the data set and "Payment Type" and "CardNum" to //Script Log//.
 +
 +Save the changes and run the model again. Examine //Script Log// (click on the script log button {{wiki:overview:tut_DataSet_ScriptLogBtn.png?50}} in //RESULT// tab):
 +
 +Below is the first few lines from the script log:

 ==== Loop through Data Set ==== ==== Loop through Data Set ====
  
 +The data set can also be looped programmatically by scripting as follows:
 +   dataset = $SYS.getDataSet('PaymentOptions');
 +   
 +   // rewind dataset to first row
 +   dataset.rewind();
 +   
 +   // retrieve data
 +   paymentType = dataset.getData('PaymentType');
 +   
 +   // advance to next row, if rowIdx == 0, all rows exhausted
 +   rowIdx = dataset.nextRow();
  
 +Please note that the data set being looped programmatically as above can not be attached to the transition at the same time.
