Lesson 1.4: Create a Java test class to test your application

Lesson 1.4 leads you through the creation of a Java™ test class to test your application.
Before you begin, you must complete Lesson 1.3: Create a Java method.
In this lesson you will
  1. First you will create a Java test class: Expand the InOutArray project, expand Java Resources, and select the sample.ims package.
  2. Right click and select New. Select the Java class icon class option to create a new Java class.
  3. In the Java class name, type TestInOutProxy. Note that the TestInOutProxy class is provided as an example only; you may need to change the transaction code to your IMS™ machine specifications. Consult your IMS administrator for the transaction code. You can locate this statement input.setWs__trcd("SKS7 "); in the code to make the changes.
  4. Ensure that the Source Folder field contains InOutArray/JavaSource and that the Package name field contains sample.ims.data.
  5. Click Finish.
  6. Double-click TestInOutProxy to open the file in the Java editor.
  7. Copy all the code provided below, and paste it into the TestInOutProxy.java class. Replace any existing code in the editor:
    Note: The TestInOutProxy.java Java class was created for an English locale; you may have to make modifications in the code for other locales.

  8. Press Ctrl-S to save the changes.
  9. Next you will test the application: Expand the InOutArray project and the sample.ims package.
  10. Right click on the TestInOutProxy.java class and expand Run , and select Run As < Java Application.
  11. You should see the following output on the console:
    test output
Congratulations! You have completed the Input Output Array Tutorial.
