Why is it difficult to reuse data?


Please select the item that describes best your current situation:

For the following items the issue of choice is TEST DATA LOSS:

  1. It's faster (and easier) to create new data than to try to reuse it
  2. Nobody knows what is already available


For the following items look up the issue INCONSISTENT DATA:

  1. You can only use the data once, then it gets corrupted
  2. Data is only valid for one release
  3. Data has to be updated from release to release
