Stopping stubs by using the DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel method

When you want to stop stubs that are running on IBM® DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel (Test Virtualization Control Panel), you can stop individual stubs or stop multiple stubs from the Environments Dashboard or Infrastructure Dashboard.

You must have started the stubs that are published to Test Virtualization Control Panel or the stubs must be running on Test Virtualization Control Panel. See Starting stubs.

You must stop the running stubs in the following situations:
  • When you no longer require the stubs to run on Test Virtualization Control Panel.
  • When you want to stop the engine of the agent that is running.
Note:
You must stop the stubs that are running otherwise the stubs continue to run indefinitely.
  1. Log in to Test Virtualization Control Panel.
  2. Open any of the following dashboards:
    • The Environments Dashboard, if the stubs are running on Test Virtualization Control Panel.
    • The Infrastructure Dashboard, if the stubs are running on agent computers.
  3. Perform the action described in the following table to stop running stubs:
