Integration with UrbanCode Deploy

IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy is a tool for automating application deployments in the environments that you set up. The tool facilitates continuous testing and delivery in agile development. You can integrate Rational® Integration Tester with IBM UrbanCode Deploy by using either of the following plug-ins: Rational Integration Tester plug-in or Service Virtualization plug-in.

Rational Integration Tester plug-in

With the Rational Integration Tester plug-in, you can invoke a test resource (a test, a test suite, or a performance test) defined in a Rational Integration Tester test project. To enable the integration, do the following tasks:
  • Install Rational Integration Tester plug-in on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server.
  • Install Rational Integration Tester on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy agent computer.
  • Deploy the system under test (SUT) on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy agent computer.
After the integration is set up, you can run the tests from the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server. For details, see Rational Integration Tester plug-in documentation.

Service Virtualization plug-in

Service Virtualization helps you to automate the testing of integration in complex application environments much earlier in the development life cycle. You can use the Service Virtualization plug-in for creating virtual services that model the services that your application depends on. You can virtualize services that are accessed through various technologies, including HTTP, MQ, JMS, JDBC, TCP/IP, CICS-TG, IMS Connect, SAP, and Software AG web methods. For more information, see Supported technologies for testing.

To enable the integration, do the following tasks:
  • Install the Service Virtualization plug-in on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server.
  • Install IBM Rational Test Virtualization Server on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy agent computer.
  • Deploy the system under test (SUT) on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy agent computer.
After the integration is set up, you can run message-based stubs and database stubs from the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server. For details, see Service Virtualization plug-in documentation.
