    - Integration Testing
      You can use find information about the tasks that you can perform for testing various domains, technologies, or applications.
    - Extending Rational® Integration Tester functionality by using custom functions
      You can add more calculations and operations to tests by using the Rational® Integration Tester custom function class. Rational Integration Tester custom function is a Java™ class that extends the com.ghc.ghTester.expressions function.
    - Working in non-GUI mode
      You can use the tools and executable files that are provided along with the product software. You can use these tools to perform different test actions in a non-GUI mode.
      - Command-line interfaces
        Rational® Integration Tester command-line client is available in Rational Integration Tester 8.0.1 or later.
        Displaying RunTests command help
        To display RunTests command help, run RunTests help command.
        Displaying IntegrationTesterCmd command list and the help
        To display the list of IntegrationTesterCmd commands and the help for a specific command, run IntegrationTesterCmd help and IntegrationTesterCmd help <command-name> commands.
      - Ant tasks
        You can use the supported Ant tasks that is supplied with Rational® Test Control Panel to create, update, or manage the environment, scenarios, and stubs.
      - REST services
        Representational state transfer (REST) is a simple stateless architecture that generally runs over HTTP. When used in conjunction with IBM® Rational® Test Control Panel, HTTP methods (such as GET and POST) are mapped to actions on domains, environments, scenarios, stubs and other resource types.
      - Running tests
        Use Rational® Integration Tester to run tests with command-line and Ant APIs.
      - Managing test results
        Use IBM® Rational® Test Control Panel to manage test results with command-line APIs.
      - Managing domains
        You can create, list, update, and delete domains with the Rational® Test Control Panel REST API.
      - Managing environments
        Locking a Rational® Test Control Panel environment prevents other users from changing the state of that environment, for example, starting or stopping stubs.
      - Managing scenarios
        Use IBM® Rational® Test Control Panel to manage scenarios with command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
      - Managing stubs
        You can manage stubs by using the command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
- Security Considerations
  You can take certain actions to ensure that your installation is secure, customize your security settings, and set up user access controls.

Command-line interfaces

Rational® Integration Tester command-line client is available in Rational® Integration Tester 8.0.1 or later.

Run the Rational® Integration Tester commands from the Windows™ Command Prompt or the Linux™ Terminal. You can use the commands to run Rational® Integration Tester project resources locally or manage test results. You can start stubs, stop stubs, modify managed stubs, run scenarios, create an environment, lock an environment, or unlock an environment by using the IntegrationTesterCmd commands. Most Rational® Integration Tester commands require Rational® Integration Tester version 8.0.1 or later and Rational® Test Control Panel version 8.0.1 or later, unless noted otherwise on the page for the individual command.

RunTests Command syntax

The general syntax for all commands is as follows:

RunTests Options
