Using the Eclipse Client

Important

Before using the Eclipse Client for the first time, make sure you have setup the Functional Test and Repository Server preferences in the 

Topaz for Total Test

 Preferences (Window>Preferences>Compuware>Topaz for Total Test).

A test scenario, also called a Total Test Scenario, contains a sequence of steps that will be executed by Topaz for Total Test. It can be SQL select statements, program calls, iterations etc. The simplest test possible is a single call to a component. This is documented in the BMC Compuware Web Products online help for Topaz for Total Test Getting Started topic.

In this section, we will create a test scenario that calls two modules in a sequence. First, we call the XAPGMTST program that produces a timestamp. Second, we will call the XAPGMCAL program that calculates minutes and seconds until midnight from an input timestamp. We will use the output timestamp from XAPGMTST as input to XAPGMCAL. Finally, we will save the execution result as validation data that can be used to validate future executions.
