What do you use to test the efficacy of a process in Blue Prism?

Testing the efficacy of a process in Blue Prism typically involves conducting process simulations. This method allows users to run a process in a controlled environment without affecting live data or systems. During a simulation, the process can be executed using test data to monitor how it performs and to identify any issues or inefficiencies. This approach enables developers and business analysts to evaluate the process flow, error handling, and any potential bottlenecks before it is deployed in a production environment.

While session logs and control room reports provide valuable insights into the execution of processes and can be used to analyze historical performance, they are not primarily designed for testing efficacy. Session logs capture detailed information about robot activities, whereas control room reports summarize performance and operational metrics. Data items serve as variables within the Blue Prism process to hold and manipulate data; they are not used for testing efficacy but rather as components that the process utilizes during its execution.
