ARD 3.2 Test Factory Enhancement - Need a feature that does not sort date alphabetically

Products

• CA Agile Requirements Designer

Issue/Introduction

We have an ARD 3.2 flow where we are generating test data in a specific order that we desire inside the Block.
After having Path Explorer generate the test paths, and saving the paths, when we go to the Test Factory to resolve the data, the Resolved Data view displays the data in alphabetical order.
We need the data to be displayed in the order that was declared in the blocks, so that we can export and use the test data "AS IS" with its corresponding column name, to feed jobs to be processed and loaded.

It would be good if ARD has the feature and not just only sorting in alphabetical, and it would be great if this could be added as an enhancement.

Resolution

ARD currently does not have an option to set the order for how the resolved and unresolved test data in the Test Factory.
This has been submitted to the Product Management team as a possible product enhancement.
The Enhancement can be tracked under User Story US800340.

As for possible workarounds, there's not much we can offer.
One thought would be to add a prefix to the variable names, to ensure they are shown in the order you want to see them.
Another is to export the resolved data to an Excel spreadsheet and sort the order in Excel.
