Selecting test recipients
Use the following steps to indicate which recipient IDs to include in a list of test email recipients. Each recipient ID specifies a row in the output list table (OLT) when you perform a production run of the flowchart.
For more information about creating and populating the OLT, see Populating the OLT.
1.
Define cells that specify the test recipients that receive the test mailing.
Consult with the members of your team responsible for testing to determine which cells to add to create a test list. Depending on the type of testing required, you might select different cells.
2.
In the flowchart that defines the recipient list, open the eMessage process for editing and select the Source tab.
3.
In the Test List field of the eMessage process, select one or more of the available cells as a process input.

When creating a test list, be careful that you do not select cells that contain production recipients. Clear cells specified in the Production List field.
After you complete these steps specify test input cells, you can use Output tab of the eMessage process to map other recipient-specific data to the OLT. Consult with the members of your team responsible for testing to determine what additional recipient data might be required.
For more information about mapping recipient data to the recipient list, see Defining the OLT for a recipient list.
