Data driven test

I am new to TestComplete. My company want to buy the tool to test out webapp.

After going throught the sample data driven test desmostration :

http://support.smartbear.com/screencasts/testcomplete/creating-data-driven-tests/

I tried to do similar test for my web app.

My steps are as follows:

Create an excel file with the following coumns:










Salutation Surname FirstName Gender

Gender is a dropdown:

I Create the a project on testcomplete starts recording, i Enter the values for the above headings and selected Gender as Male.

Stop record.

I highlighted all my action ,right click,select data loop and selected the right excel file.

I change the gender to Female.

i want the test do repeat the same sequence for all my Test Suject:10

when i run the test i received this error:

Unable to start a data loop from record 4, because the data source contains 3 records.    12:22:47    Normal       

The test execution was interrupted.    12:22:47    Normal

    Hi Ebrima,



    It's difficult to tell for sure what is going wrong. Can you share your TestComplete project along with the Excel file with us?
