Data Loading Status Reports (Database Insertion)
When GenRocket Scenarios are run from the Command Line, and data fails to load, an exception will be thrown and will be returned back to the Command Line. So when a Scenario runs and the data is correctly inserted into the database the user will know it was successful because there is no exception reported back to the Command Line and will know there was a problem because an exception was returned to the command line.
When GenRocket Scenarios are run within a testing framework as part of an automated testing process, and there is a data load failure, an exception will be thrown and the exception will be returned back to the testing framework. So the user will know when the data is correctly inserted into the database or not by viewing the reports in the testing framework.
