Name
|
You can change the name of the published stub and to save your changes, click
SAVE.
|
Version
|
You can set the version of the stub by selecting the version available in the list. Note: If the
Rational® Test Control Panel
command line or Apache Ant tasks are used to start a stub, and if no stub version information is
provided, it is the latest version of a stub that is run.
|
Logging Level
|
Use the Logging Level option to modify the currently
selected stubs log level that determines the level of details that will be written to the
project results database. By default, logging is disabled when you deploy a stub to improve
performance
Log level options are as follows:
- None (default)
- Normal
- Debug
Log messages are written to the project results database if you have configured one, and to the
Rational® Integration Tester
Agent
log file. Normal log messages are saved to the project results database only. With
Debug logging, more messages (in addition to those found in the project results database, if
any) are written to the Rational® Integration Tester
Agent log
file. Example:
- Normal:
[07/03/2018, 15:43:55.642] Instance 1: Message Case: "Text" using schema "Text" Stub input filters passed, continuing to subtree.
- Debug:
[07/03/2018, 15:43:55.658] [Debug] Instance 1: Tag write: Value1 (1)
[07/03/2018, 15:43:55.658] [Debug] Instance 1: Tag write: Value2 (2)
Note: If you observe any delays with the stub response time, set the log level to
None. This would avoid any delays due to the time taken to log details to the results
database.
|
Input tags
|
Displays the input tags of the currently selected version of the stub.
Use this section to override the configured input tag values for the currently selected version
of the stub.
Expand Input tags section to list the input tags specified for the
selected version of the stub. To override the configured value of an input tag, click
Input tags enter a new name under the tag name field
and enter the value under the result field associated with it. To force the
value of a tag to be null, push the slide-button to the right against the Is
Null? field.
|
Response Time
|
Use this section to override the currently selected stubs response time behavior. By
default, the stub response time behavior will be as it was defined when the stub was published. You
can choose to have no delay to responses, or to configure a fixed, uniform or Gaussian delay
distribution. Note: The overridden settings apply to all operations in the stub.
Delay distributions options are as follows:
Option |
Description |
No delay
|
Select this option for a response time with no delay.
|
Fixed delay
|
Select this option for a fixed delay in the response time by entering the required delay in
milliseconds (ms).
|
Uniform distribution
|
Select this option for a uniformly distributed random time by specifying the minimum and maximum
delay, by sliding the pointer to the required delay in milliseconds (ms).
|
Gaussian distribution
|
Select this option for a random time with Gaussian distribution by specifying the minimum and
maximum delay, by sliding the pointer to the required delay in milliseconds (ms).
|
Note: After a stub has started, its response time can be modified while it is running.
|
Agent Tags
|
You can view and choose the agent tags to restrict agents where the stubs are run.
|
Dedicated JVM
|
You can choose to use a dedicated Virtual Machine (VM) to run the stubs that allows for
customized JVM arguments to be run on the stubs. If you intend to use this resource, click the
Required check box and provide the details of the dedicated JVM.
|
Performance
|
You can modify the currently selected stubs performance settings. By default, a stub uses
the performance option that is set when the stub was published. This includes specifying the number
of requests to the stub that can be handled simultaneously. You can optimize the performance by
selecting the Optimize performance check box. You can also enter the number
of simultaneous requests in the Worker Threads field or use the
increase/decrease button () to
change the available threads.
For more information on the Performance optimization settings, see The Properties tab.
|
Pass Through
|
You can modify the stubs behavior to respond to messages received. You can select an
option from the list that modifies what was set in Rational®
Integration Tester for the
stubs responses to messages received:
Simulate Error |
Use this option to simulate an error when a message is received. |
Pass Through |
Use this option for the stub to pass the message to the next operation. If no other
operation exists, the stub moves the message to the application. |
Discard |
Use this option to discard the message. |
