Make sure that, in the [Database] section of the Intools.ini file, the following parameter setting appears: AutoCommit= 0. If the parameter setting is AutoCommit=1, the test mode is disabled and trying to test the import process results in actual data import.
-
Define a log file, if you have not yet done so.
You can perform a test run of a sub-set of the selected source and target data by applying the appropriate filtering condition to the data (see Specify a Filtering Condition) or partially linking the source and target data (see Define the Import Mapping).
-
With the Import Link window open, on the toolbar, select (Test) to start testing the import process.
-
On the Import Progress Test dialog, which opens automatically, view the expected import process results.
The test results are inaccurate when you import data in a group of links of which some links are related as in the example: cable, cable set, and wire. Also, the test results are inaccurate when you import one or more source tables containing multiple prime values.
