Sample data
Starting with the Contenta S1000D 4.0 release, RWS delivers sample S1000D content to upload to a test Contenta S1000D CSDB, edit and output, as well as sample output for that content.
- Verifying your installation
- Immediately after performing an installation, use sample data to verify that your product installation was successful. Using sample data guarantees that the verification process is unaffected by any customizations or configuration changes you may have applied to your own data.
- Debugging
- When you encounter an issue with your own collections and/or publications, sample data can help you determine the status of your system, separate from your specific content.
- Testing customizations
- If you have real data against which to test your customizations, use them. If not, sample data may be used as part of an initial test bed for any customizations you implement.
- Verifying the impact of configuration changes
- If you have real data against which to test the impact of your configuration changes, use them. If not, sample styles can help determine the impact of your changes.
These sample jobs illustrate the Data Module types that we expect will be used most by our customers. The samples do not include every Data Module type for which we deliver styles, so you should use your own content to confirm whether your style requirements are met with any of the sample deliverables.
