Adding other scripting languages
In addition to ECMAScript, you can customize
Rational® Integration Tester to use other scripting languages. The language must provide
a .jar archive that implements the Java™ Scripting API and that you can embed in
the product.
For more information about the Java Scripting API, see the Java Scripting Programmer's Guide.
Example: Adding Groovy script to Rational Integration Tester
For example, to add Groovy script to Rational
Integration Tester, complete
the following steps:
- From the Groovy website, download the latest stable release.
- Extract the archive file to a local directory.
- Copy the groovy-2.4.0\embeddable\groovy-all-x.x.x.jar file into the
Rational
Integration Tester
installation
directory:
installation_directory/jre/lib/ext/ - Restart Rational Integration Tester.
- Groovy is displayed as an option in the drop-down menu for the Function.
Note: An agent that runs stubs that include Groovy scripts must have
the Groovy .jar file on its classpath. If the
file is not present in the classpath, the agent throws a null pointer
exception.
