Thank you for posting to our Community Forum.

 

Our DataSink TestStep is the best way to export the response information.

 

Can you provide more detail on how you configured the DataSink and how you set up your data-driven testing?

Here is an example DataSink I created to write response information into a text file:

I have the data sink setup to export to Excel.  I have identified 4 properties pointed at certain data points in the response.  I am using an excel spreadsheet with 18 rows as the data source.  The problem i am having, is the four properties are generated multiple times in each response and I would like to export all instances of the properties in each of the 18 responses.  The data sink is only exporting the data from the last of the 18 runs or is overwriting each response with the newest run.

    PaulCzosnowski Make sure that the DataSink is set to "Append to existing file" so that it doesn't overwrite it with each new run.
