Run tests by using an Ant task

You can execute tests by using the IBM® Rational® Integration Tester Ant tasks.

You can first define an Ant task. Here is an example:

  <taskdef classname="com.ghc.ghTester.ant.GHTester" name="GHTester" classpathref="rittasklib">

Here is an example syntax:

<GHTester environment="MyEnvironment" haltOnFailure="true" project="${basedir}\MyProject.ghp" resultsServerLogging="absolute">
   <Tests>
      <filelist dir="${basedir}">
         <file name="MyProject/MakeBooking/BookingStub"/>
         <file name="MyProject/MakeBooking/MakeBooking"/>
         <file name="MyProject/MakeBooking/Empty Test"/>
      </filelist>
   </Tests>
   <AppProperties>
      <property name="greenhat.net.defaultnetworkdevice" value="\Device\NPF_{49ACBD55-A866-47E4-AD87-ECF3A7FE49AB}"/
   </AppProperties>
</GHTester>

Table 1 lists the attributes than can you can usebe used to define an Ant task for running a test.
