Simulated data feed?

Does Sierra Chart offer a simulated data feed similar to the one Ninjatrader provides? The purpose of such a feed is to test whether the setup you've configured (e.g. stops, chase, limits, etc.) works the way you want it to. It just starts with a randomly generated price and generates random price changes or price changes influenced either by a weak or a strong trend. So you can make a simulated trade, then make "price" trend up or down to test whether your targets, stops, and chase parameters work the way you intend them to.
