What the EXEC testing facility provides
The EXEC Testing Facility includes many common debugging features such as
- Real-time execution control
- Variable read/write access
- The establishment of breakpoints (an instruction in the program which, when encountered, suspends execution and returns control to the tester)
Using the testing facility, you can review and change the state of the program or its environment during processing, or you can terminate the test altogether. You can debug EXECs in a non-standalone system so the EXEC Testing Facility also incorporates special precautions to safeguard the status of the production system.
The following sections describe how to use the facility to debug BMC AMI Ops Automation EXECs. A short example demonstrating different functions is also provided.
