	In order to test the setup in a dynamic case, we optionally have to do one or more things. We can add the deciduous trees function to the [[Action\|Actions]] of our [[Stakeholder]]. Furthermore, we can add open water to the actions or our stakeholder as well. With these two actions added to our stakeholder, we can start a [[~~Test Session~~]] and plan both deciduous trees and open water. By keeping the Query tool opened, we can, at any time, execute the query and calculate the current amount of square meters of deciduous trees within 20 meters of water!
