Use a Test Answer File

As you test variables, scripts, dialogs, and templates, you can save the answers you use in a special test answer file. When you do this, these answers will be used each time you test, and you will not be prompted to save answers at the end of each test.

To save your answers in a special test answer file

1. Test assemble a variable, dialog, or template by entering answers for each question.
2. When finished, close the assembly window. HotDocs asks if you want to save your answers.
3. Click Save or Save As. The Save Answer File dialog box appears.
4. In the File name field, type Test Answer File.
5. In the Title field, enter a title or accept the suggestion HotDocs makes.
6. Click OK.

Now, whenever you test assemble in HotDocs, this answer file will be used and you will not be prompted to save your answers. To use a different answer file, click either the New Answers button or the Open Answers button in the test assembly window toolbar. If you use an existing answer file other than Test Answer File, HotDocs will use this answer file for each test assembly, but you will be prompted to save any changes you have made to the file when you close the assembly window.
