Accessing shared folder .dat files

stephenhulme

We leverage accessing a shared folder of dat files for multiple scripts using the ..\shared\<datfilename>.dat and utilise Unique Once (and/or block size) to allow for a single data file with a set of test data to be maintained in one place and have mutliple scripts access that file.

This principal works fine in vugen however when uploading to LR Cloud, shared folder has been zipped and linked to all scripts yet the scripts are unable to find the dat files.

Any one aware if this is even feasible in LR Cloud or any work arounds where the centralised dat file can be maintained and leveraged by multiple scripts?

    Dear Stephen,

    1. I suggest to open the support ticket to further validate your script
    2. LRC has the function called "Data files" that you can manage the file in one single place
    The concept of Data files should be very similar to shared folder in on-premise with no access constraint to the local shared folder.

    For more information, please refer to the following link:

    Regards,
    Kate

    Thanks I already have but wanted to check in the community in case anyone had any existing experience.  Seems they are really limiting shared functionality with "Data files associated with a script will be deployed on load generator machines at runtime and extracted into the script's folder." which implies all scripts have to reference local dat files, which would be a considerable overhead for local vugen validation of scripts. Hopefully support can work with me to figure it out.
