Canceling a test data generation job

After initiating a test data generation job, if you want to modify the schema or terminate the job before the job completes, then you can cancel the running test data generation job.

Before you begin

You must have a test data generation job in the In Progress status.

About this task

Note: You can hover the cursor over the job to view the details of the member who canceled the job along with the timestamp.
