About Test Script Services


This chapter describes the Rational Test Script Services (TSS). These services can be extended to other languages or test frameworks. If you wrap these calls in the language provided by your Test Script Execution Adapter, these services are available to test script developers in that language. The services can also be directly called from C or C++ tests: see Using Test Script Services from an External C or C++ Program. The services are divided into the following functional categories.

Category Description
Datapool Provide variable data to test scripts during playback.
Logging Log messages for reporting and analysis.
Measurement Manage timers and test variables.
Utility Perform common test script functions.
Monitor Monitor test script playback progress.
Synchronization Synchronize virtual testers in multicomputer runtime environments.
Session Manage the test suite runtime environment.
Advanced Perform advanced logging and measurement functions.
