| The JavaTest Harness | Description |
|---|---|
|
The JavaTest harness is a powerful test harness that can run tests on a variety of test platforms (such as servers, workstations, browsers, and small devices) with a variety of test execution models (such as API compatibility tests, language/compiler tests, and regression tests). |
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
GUI mode
|
Browse and run test suites and display test results. The graphical user interface provides a set of windows and menus that you use to configure and run tests, monitor test and agent status, evaluate and analyze test results, and include or exclude tests from test runs. |
Batch mode
|
Provides complete test execution functionality without using the GUI -- this allows you to use the JavaTest harness to run tests in build scripts and other automated processes. |
HTML reports
|
Summarize test runs. HTML reports for the test run can be generated in batch mode or from the GUI |
Auditing test runs
|
Can be performed in batch mode or from the GUI |
Web server to monitor batch mode
|
Use to monitor and control test progress while tests are running in batch mode. |
Runs tests on small systems
|
The JavaTest harness provides an agent (a separate program that works in conjunction with the JavaTest harness) to run tests on systems that can't run the JavaTest harness. |
Online help
|
Describes how to use the JavaTest harness to run test suites and evaluate test results. It also provides context sensitive help, full-text search, keyword search, and can be accessed from the command line without starting the JavaTest harness. |
