You can generally use the Analyzer with services created with both the Scheer PAS Designer and the Scheer PAS Builder. However, there are some particularities to consider for each.
This chapter describes how to use the Analyzer with the Scheer PAS Designer. Switch to Using the Analyzer with Builder Services for how to use the Analyzer to trace xUML services that have been developed with the Builder.
To make test calls against an xUML service, inspect the execution path and review the trace graphically, or write regression tests, start as follows:
Optional: Create a Builder Project
Within the Analyzer, all service definitions are stored to so called “Builder projects”. To be able to work with the Analyzer, you need a Builder project where your test data is stored. Creating and Managing Builder Projects describes how to create a Builder project if you do not already have one.
Import the Service Description
To trace through a service, you must first import its characteristics. This is done by importing the service description file (repository or bundle file) generated by the Designer.
Use the Analyzer’s Features
Now you can start collecting and analyzing traces or writing regression tests.
