Samples Overview Using Test Cases

Starting AUTs for testing

There are two ways you can start your application to be tested.

1. You can configure the application so that it is started from the user interface. In an AUT configuration, you can specify how the AUT is started. You can have different configurations for different platforms.
2. You can start your AUT independently using the command autrun. This lets us know that that AUT is testable.

In both cases, the AUT can run on any machine in the network, as long as the AUT Agent (the server component) is also installed and running there.

Options for starting AUTs

1. You can start your AUT via an executable file if it is written in Java 1.5 or above, and you are using an Oracle VM.
2. You can also start your AUT via a jar file that can be started with a double click.
3. If your AUT is not a jar or executable file, you can start it by entering the main class name and class paths necessary to start the AUT.
