  1. Working with the Data Table USINGQTP65-STUDENT-01A

  2. Objectives In this lesson, you will learn: • How to use the spreadsheet capabilities of the data table to create checkpoints with simple calculations

  3. How Can I Meet This Test Requirement? TEST REQUIREMENT 1.2.2 Compute Price TotalsVerify that the List Price equals the Price value plus the discount (under You Save).

  4. Components of a Checkpoint using Spreadsheet Formulas Create a text checkpoint on the value to verify Capture other values necessary for the verification into the Data table Create a formula to compute the total of the output values (13.00 = 10.40 + 2.60) Modify the text checkpoint arguments to use the computations in the Data table.

  5. 1. Capture the Relevant Values Important: Make sure the values captured have the same format.

  6. Double-click on the column header to change the header label. 2. Create Values That Will be Compared to the Checkpoint • Add a new column that computes for the total of the output values • Format the data in the new column as required

  7. 3. Modify the Checkpoint Arguments Turn the constant value of the checkpoint into a parameter. The actual value will be placed into an output parameter named “ListPrice_out". The value in “ListPrice_out" will be compared with the value in "Total" using the specified formula.

  8. Data Table Formula Added to Checkpoint Currently, the Data Table formula is evaluating-- Is the value in ListPrice_out equal to the string “$13.00?” The formula should be edited so that the value in ListPrice_out is equated to the computed value under Total.

  9. Check Excel documentation for more information on formulas to use. Data Table Formulas (Examples) • First word in a sentence: =LEFT(A1, SEARCH(" ", A1, 1) • A part of the sentence starting with the word "word": =MID(A1, SEARCH("word", A1, 1), LEN(A1)) • Check whether two strings are equal: =EXACT(A1, "Flight") • Concatenation of two strings: ="Hello" & "There" • Check whether string1 appears in string2 =FIND(string1, string2, 1) • Today’s date: =TODAY()

  10. Other Technique – Link Values using Parameters Evaluate checkpoints by linking to computed values.
