Unit Test: Leading zeroes data page parameter stripped
Summary
Data page unit test case execution fails as Pega strips the leading zeroes from the parameter value.
The data page under test expects a parameter, in the unit test case configuration we have provided a value for the parameter with 5 leading zeroes.
When the test case is executed, pega invokes the data page with the parameter value specified in the unit test case rule but without the 5 leading zeroes.
Unit test case is executing a data page with the parameter RelationID, the value for this RelationID is set to “000000110068281”
However when the data page is executed the leading zeroes in the parameter value are stripped and the data page is invoked with the value “110068281”. This causes the execution to fail.
Error Messages
Since the leading zeroes are stripped, the test case execution fails as the system of record expects a parameter with leading zeroes.

Steps to Reproduce
1) Create a data page with a string parameter.
2) Create a unit test case for the data page and specify a parameter value with leading zeroes.
3) Execute and trace the unit test case, check the parameter value passed to the data page.
Root Cause
As the engine proceeded the input parameter as Integer, the preceding zeros got truncated.
Resolution
If user do not want this to happen then user can open test case and there will be a gear(edit) icon on the parameter value, user can edit it and specify the values within double quotes. This will take the value as string and truncation will not happen.
