Building system models by using synchronization

When design-time assets are available, building by using synchronization is the preferred technique. Synchronization builds the system under test for you, which simplifies your testing work.

The Architectural School perspective is used to build a simple, graphical view of the system under test. The main aim of building this system model is to understand and validate the dependencies, interactions, and constraints between the interfaces. By itself, the system model does not contain enough information to be testable. To enable the creation and execution of tests, the configuration details of the infrastructure components that make up the logical system must be provided. Rational® Integration Tester provides this synchronization capability to simplify this process. Synchronization does the work of building the system under test and automatically adds logical and physical components, dependencies, and interactions.
