Use the Set test data dialog to fabricate conditions so you can test which items are active when specific conditions are met. Active stack items will display a green dot.
To display this dialog:
- Click the Open button () on a sequence item.
- Click the Options button () on the sequence item header.
- From the pop-up menu, select Set test data.
The following options are available:
Date and time — Enter the date and time manually or click the field to select the date and time from the popup calender. Click Apply after updating this value to test whether the scheduling conditions you've set resolve as expected.
— Click to display the Set location dialog and dynamically move the marker to select a location on the map or manually enter an address. Click Apply to save your location settings and close the Set location dialog, then click Apply on the Set test data dialog to test whether the location conditions you've set resolve as expected.
— Click to add a new row to the bottom of the list. You can use this to test any custom data that has been added to items.
— Click to delete a row of data.
When you've made your changes, click Apply to accept them or Cancel to dismiss them and close the dialog.

If you have a condition set so that an item will display only on a weekend and you want to test it will resolve correctly:
- On the Sequence item that contains the stack item with the scheduling condition you want to test, click the Options button.
- Select Set test data to display the Set test data dialog.
- Click the Date and time field.
- Select a date and time on a Saturday or Sunday from the pop-up calender, or enter one in manually.
- Click Apply.
Now the item with a weekday only condition will be not displayed, and the item with a weekend only condition will be displayed.
Testing location conditions
- On the Sequence item that contains the stack item with the scheduling condition you want to test, click the Options button.
- Select Set test data to display the Set test data dialog.
- Click Set location. The Select location dialog is displayed.
- Move the red marker, enter a term into the search field, or manually enter an address to specify the location of the screen.
- Click Apply to close the Select location dialog. The gps fields on the Set test data dialog are updated with the new location.
