Main Description
### Overview Rational Functional Tester Extension for Terminal-based Applications (FTE) is used to automate the testing of MVS, VM, OS/400 and Unix host applications. This tool mentor assumes you have installed the Rational Functional Tester Extension and have some familiarity with Rational Functional Tester (RFT). From the Rational Functional Tester Extension (FTE) window, you can configure some of the ways FTE behaves. This tool mentor describes the steps to configure FTE. For more information, see "IBM Extension for Terminal Based Applications preferences" in the FTE online Help. #### Tool Steps In order to configure Rational Functional Tester Extension (FTE), you must perform the following steps: Open an RFT project and bring up FTE. Use the FTE menu bar or toolbar to bring up the FTE "Preferences" window. In the "Preferences" window, you can set time limits for various ways FTE interacts with the host system, and specify the default folder for FTE connection configuration files. [link to Tool Mentor for fte_save_and_load_connection_config] If invalid FTE configuration information is entered, FTE will display an error message warning about the invalid values. This information will be saved in the userprefs.ini file and used whenever FTE is brought up in the future.
