Managing Service Descriptions With the Trace Analyzer

This page describes how to manage service descriptions in the Trace Analyzer once they have been imported:

• in the synchronous part

• in the asynchronous part

Synchronous Trace Analyzer

In the upper part of the Overview window of the Trace Analyzer tab, you find a tree structure representing the service description of each service.

The following items are displayed for each service:

Name of the WSDL file (deployed xUML service)

Name of the service endpoint

Name of the port type

Name of the operation

Name of a test case

If you click an element of the tree, the content pane on the right displays the corresponding details:

Selecting the test case tree node, you can see information on SOAP requests, SOAP responses, and dynamic UML diagrams that are used for tracing:

For more information on test case functionality, refer to:

• Creating Test Cases

• Inserting Test Data

• Inspecting the Test Case Results

Contents of the Asynchronous Part

In the lower part of the Trace Analyzer tab of the Overview window, you find a tree structure representing the WSDL definition of each service, similar to the one for synchronous testing.

The following items are displayed for each WSDL definition:

Name of the WSDL file (deployed xUML service)

Name of the service endpoint

Name of the port type

Name of the operation, including information on the service location and the tracing status

No test cases can be defined for asynchronous testing, as this contradicts this testing method. For more information on asynchronous testing refer to Asynchronous Tracing with the xUML Trace Analyzer.
If you click an element of the tree, you can see the corresponding details in the content pane on the right. Selecting the operation tree node, the trace settings specified for this service operation are displayed:

Renaming WSDL Definitions

In the Overview window of the Trace Analyzer, select a WSDL definition. Open the context menu by clicking the selected WSDL with the right mouse button and select Rename Imported WSDL from the context menu:

A corresponding entry in the asynchronous part of the Trace Analyzer will get renamed accordingly. Type in a new name and click OK:

Deleting WSDL Definitions

Deleting a WSDL from the Synchronous Part

In the upper part of the Overview window of the Trace Analyzer, select a WSDL definition.

To remove the selected WSDL

• press Del or ...

• ...open the context menu by clicking the selected WSDL with the right mouse button and select Delete Imported WSDL from the context menu:

Confirm the deletion or cancel:

Confirm whether you also want to delete the corresponding test definition from the asynchronous part of the Trace Analyzer:

Deleting an Asynchronous Test Definition

In the lower part of the Overview window of the Trace Analyzer, select a test definition (corresponding to an imported WSDL definition).

To remove the selected definition

• press Del or ...

• ...open the context menu by clicking the selected definition with the right mouse button and select Delete from the context menu:

Confirm the deletion or cancel:

Confirm whether you also want to delete the corresponding WSDL definition from the synchronous part of the Trace Analyzer:
