to use for testing.
Note: Because the framework is only ever executed for a single context at a time, it is highly recommended to use a single context when testing the framework. Select the context where you are seeing issues that you need to test. If required, you can change your selection later. - Connect the new External Input Test shape to the Pre-processing extension point shape.
- Save and check in your changes.
