PH50419: ZUNIT GENERATES TEST CASE WITH INVALID SYNTAX WHEN A TEST CASE PROGRAM IS GENERATED FOR AN IMS BMP MAIN PROGRAM

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a test case program is generated for an IMS BMP main
  program, sometimes zUnit generates a Test Case program with
  invalid syntax, so the Test Case program does not compile.
  
  The Test Case program seems to contain a CALL statement to the
  module-under-test with a parameter list as if the program is a
  regular main program. However, the variable used in the CALL
  Statement to contain the parameter is not defined in DATA
  DIVISION. The correct behavior is to generate the CALL statement
  with the PCBs as the parameters to be passed.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• See error description.
  

Problem conclusion

• The test case generator will be updated to generate test cases
  for supporting main programs that have parameters other than PCB
   parameter in LINKAGE.
  In Specify PCB index dialog of test case editor, the check
  button for enable/disable PCB index is added, and fixed auto
  resolving.
