- A test method in the test codeunit called TestSaveAsXML.

var
LabelsFilename: Text;
DatasetFilename: Text;
begin
// Add the following code to the TestSaveAsXML test method.
LabelsFilename := TemporaryPath + 'MyLabels.xml';
DatasetFilename := TemporaryPath + 'MyDataset.xml';
Report.Run(111);
if not File.Exists(LabelsFilename) then
Error('Labels file should exist!');
if not File.Exists(DatasetFilename) then
Error('Dataset file should exist!');
// Add the following code to the ReqPageHandler method.
RequestPage.Customer.SetFilter("No.", '20000');
