Workflow
Procedure
- Select or load a session as test data.

Results
Note: If you are attempting to test a specific event on your
web application, you may find it easiest to create the session yourself
using a unique means of identifying the event. For example, you might
know that a form field value is tracked as a searchable event by Discover. Go to your web application,
enter a value in this tracked field, and then complete the activity
that triggers the event you are testing. To find the session:
- Look for it in the Active sessions page. See "Monitoring Active Sessions" in the Unica Discover Manuals.
- Search for it as an active session. See "Searching Session Data" in the Unica Discover Manuals.
You can then send the session to the Event tester through the session list.
