Does manual SetState in "DeveloperTools/States/" beeing recorded in History stats?

hi,

having problems with a template sensor see ☔ DIY Zigbee rain gauge - #451 by FrankRy
i wonder if my testing with “DeveloperTools/States/Set states” does have the right effect i would expect? Is a manuall SetState for a entitiy beeing recorded in history or not? Because another platform: history_stats Sensor should count history_stats, but does not react to my testing?

may i´m wrong?
thank you
