Creating Simulation Groups

Simulation groups run your Form Testing campaign using a data source and schedule.

They’re how you define monitoring volume and distribution over time.

Step 1: Provide data

Choose a data source:

• Upload CSV for structured, repeatable runs.

• Create Web Form to collect records through a generated URL.

CSV upload workflow

1. Download the template that matches your campaign fields.

2. Optional: download valid options for select-like fields.

3. Upload your completed CSV.

Simola validates required fields, patterns, and options. It also detects duplicates.

Step 2: Geo-targeting preferences (conditional)

If geo-targeting is enabled, pick matching behavior:

• Strict city match.

• Allow state fallback.

• Allow country fallback.

Simola can infer timezones from geo fields. This helps schedule runs correctly.

Step 3: Scheduling

Define when simulations can run:

• Start and end date.

• Active weekdays.

• Optional daily time range.

Step 4: Distribution

Distribute your total simulations across active days.

Simola can auto-distribute with slight randomization. You can override counts per day.

The daily totals must match the overall total.

Step 5: Payment confirmation

Review total cost before activation.

• Total simulations × cost per simulation.

• Wallet balance check.

• Feature-based cost breakdown.
