Description

The CurrencyCodeListGen generates a list of currency codes in accordance with ISO 4217 standards. ISO currency codes use three letters to identify different currencies worldwide.

To use this Generator, you will need to assign it to a selected Attribute as a stand-alone Generator or by linking it to other Generators for complex test data generation. The step-by-step instructions are in the following articles for each option:

• Assign New Generator
• Link Generator
  
  

Parameters

The following parameters may be configured for the CurrencyCodeListGen Generator. Items with an asterisk* are required.  

• sortOrder* - Determines the order in which the currency codes will be generated. Choose ascending to list codes alphabetically from A-Z, descending to list codes from Z-A, or random to generate codes in no specific order.
  
  
• setLoop* - This gives you the ability to override the loop count at the Scenario level and only produce the number of rows that are defined in this list.
  • For instance, if the Generator provides a list of 50 currency codes and your scenario loopCount is set to 100, enabling setLoop will prevent the Generator from repeating the same currency codes to fill up 100 rows. This is useful for scenarios where you need an exact match of currency codes to records, preserving the integrity of your data set.
    
    
• seed - Defines an optional seed for randomization. Using the seed ensures that the same random data is generated each time. To learn more about seeding, please see this article: What is Seeding?.
  
  

Note: If the loopCount for your Scenario or G-Case is set higher than the total number of available currency codes the Generator can generate, then the values will start over and repeat. If you do not want them to repeat, set the setLoop parameter to 'true'.
