Depending on whether you want to test an entire module,
a set of components, or a single component, you can open the integration
test client from either the Business Integration view or the assembly
editor.
Procedure
- If you want to test an entire module, choose one of the
following options:
- In the Business Integration view, right-click your module
and select Test > Test Modules on a Local Server.
- In the Business Integration view, expand your module and then
right-click the assembly diagram and select Test > Test
Modules on a Local Server.
- Open your module in the assembly editor (and ensure that you
press Ctrl-S to save any changes that you made),
then right-click an empty portion of the assembly editor canvas and
select Test > Test Modules on a Local Server.
- To test a module on a Process Center Server,
right-click the module, then select . When you select
this option, the test configuration contains the process application
or toolkit, and the test is performed on the target Process Center Server.
All the modules that are part of the process application or toolkit
will be tested.
The integration test client opens. Any unimplemented components
or unwired references in the module will be emulated.
- If you want to test a process application
or a toolkit, including all modules that are part of the process application
or toolkit, right-click the process application or toolkit name in
the Business Integration view and select or .
- If you want to test a set of components or an individual
component rather than an entire module, open your module in the assembly
editor (and ensure that you press Ctrl-S to
save any changes that you make), then choose one of the following
options:
- If you want to test a subset of components in your module
and have any unselected components emulated, click one of the components
in the set of components that you want to test and use the Ctrl key to select the remaining components in the set. Then right-click
one of the selected components and select Test Components
in Isolation. Any components that you did not select in
the module will automatically be emulated regardless of whether they
are implemented or not.
- If you want to test a single component in your module and
have other components emulated, right-click the component and select Test Component in Isolation. Other components will automatically
be emulated regardless of whether they are implemented or not.
- If you want to test a single component in your module and not have other implemented components emulated, right-click the
component and select Test Component.
The integration test client opens.
Example
You can also open the test client by loading a saved test
configuration or a saved test trace, as described in the topics "Loading
test configurations" and "Loading test traces." If you want to use
your own means of starting an operation, such as a JMS message, web
service, or JSP, you can also open the integration test client by
attaching it to a test configuration module. This is described in
the topic "Attaching to test configuration modules."
What to do next
When you have finished opening the integration test client,
you will probably want to select an operation to test, as described
in the topic "Selecting operations for testing."
