The command-line adapter (CLA) provides a quick and simple path for integrating an existing test tool into IBM Rational Quality Manager (RQM).

How does it work?

When the CLA starts the execution of a test, it creates a file that can be updated with name/value pairs that describe files/links that should be included in the execution result of that test. When execution of the test has been completed, this file is read by the CLA, and any valid files/links found are included in the execution result.

You can also use custom properties to populate information into the execution results of your CLA tests. This information consists of any name/value pairs you choose. For example, you might want to log the version of your test application and the operating system it’s running on.

Setting up and starting the command-line adapter

With the command-line adapter, a target test machine is used for command-line execution. You can use this command-line adapter if an adapter for your test type is not available. To use the command-line adapter, the target test machine must be set up to run the adapter and the test machine application must be started on the target test machine. After the command-line script is executed, an Execution Result is returned. The Execution Result includes attachments that contain the standard out and standard error information of the test process.

Customizing the command-line adapter

When you use the command-line adapter, you can customize the mapping of the actual results. The application-under-test needs to return an exit that is mapped to a script Actual Results value.

Creating a job that uses the command-line adapter to test an application-under-test

When you use the command-line adapter, you must have at least one application that acts as the application-under-test. The application-under-test needs to return an exit that is mapped to a script Actual Results value.

Running a test with the command-line adapter using local resources

With the command-line adapter, you can use a target test machine for running command-line jobs. After the adapter is registered, you can run scripts by using the command-line execution adapter on the target test machine. Use a command-line adapter if an adapter for your target tests is not available.

On the tester machine, a test case with a command-line test script is created and run. The test produces a Test Execution Result which contains the standard out and standard error of the executed command.

Running a test with the command-line adapter by reserving specific resources

With the command-line adapter, you can use a target test machine for running command-line jobs. After the adapter is registered, you can run scripts by using the command-line execution adapter on the target test machine. Use a command-line adapter if an adapter for your target tests is not available.

Adding attachments and links to command-line execution results

You can attach files and links to the Result Details section of a command-line adapter execution result.

The process that runs the command-line test includes the qm_AttachmentsFile environment variable, whose value is the full path to a temporary file. The command-line test can update this temporary file to specify files and URLs to attach to the execution result.

 

Troubleshooting command-line adapter issues

The command-line adapter displays error messages at startup and when commands run.

 

Read how to install and configure the CLA, create and execute CLA tests, view test execution results and some of the more advanced features of the CLA, including:

  • Attaching files and links to the execution result
  • Accessing and setting execution variables in CLA tests
  • Setting custom properties
  • Mapping application exit codes to RQM result codes
  • Updating application progress complete values
  • Limiting the applications that the CLA can execute

Unit testing is the first step towards delivering quality software. Junit is one of the tools used by developers to perform unit testing activities. This article explains the procedure to manage & execute JUnit test scenarios from Engineering Test Management.

Selenium automates browsers, primarily for automating web applications for testing purposes. You can use the JUnit Selenium adapter to run Selenium version 2.0 WebDriver JUnit4 tests in IBM® Rational® Quality Manager.
