Adding a BusinessWorks project as a synchronization source
You can use a TIBCO BusinessWorks 5 project to automatically create the resources that
are required for testing.
About this task
Resources that are generated from a BusinessWorks project include the required
variables and bindings that are converted from the TIBCO global variables.
Procedure
Launch the Create a new Synchronization Source wizard in one of
the following ways:
Drag a BusinessWorks project folder from the file system into the Logical view of
the Architecture School perspective.
Click TIBCO > TIBCO BusinessWorks Project on the menu bar in the Logical or Synchronization view.
Click the Create Synchronization Source icon () and select
TIBCO BusinessWorks Project from the
Type list in the Create a new Synchronization
Source wizard.
Complete the information on the first page of the Create a new
Synchronization Source wizard that is unique to the BusinessWorks
project.
That information consists of the following fields:
Select one of the following import types:
Project Directory
Project DAT File
Remote Project
Note: If you are using the Remote Project option, note that
newer versions of TIBCO software have an option for Local Application Data when you
create an Administration Domain. If this (default) option was selected during
installation, TIBCO Administrator does not make projects available as repositories
and HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) is not able to
access them over the network. You must use one of the
other methods to connect to the project files.
Enter the full path to the project or click Browse to locate
and select the project directory or DAT file, or to enter the details of a remote
project.
If you chose the Project Directory option, the following
options are available for Design Time Libraries:
Create
To add a library to the project or link the selected alias to a library that
is not yet part of the current Test Integrations and APIs project. Navigate to
the location of a .projlib file in the local file system.
Add
To add a reference to a library that exists in the current Test Integrations and APIs project. Select a
resource in the current project.
Edit
To modify an existing reference to a library that is already part of the
current Test Integrations and APIs
project.
Remove
To remove the selected reference.
Complete the remaining fields on the first page of the Create a new
Synchronization Source wizard.
Only environments associated with the current project are displayed in the list for
the Environment field. If you enter a new name, a new
environment is created with that name for the current project.
If you want to specify a name, component location, or synchronization option for
the new sync source, select the Show advanced options check
box. Those options are displayed on the third page of the wizard.
Click Next to continue.
On the TIBCO BusinessWorks TRA File page, complete the following
steps:
Select Create and bind to a new resource.
Provide the name of the Host where the TIBCO Runtime Agent
(TRA) file is located. Alternatively, you can specify localhost
to use a local TIBCO Designer configuration file.
Specify the initial port for the host.
Navigate to the location of the TRA File.
If a configuration is already declared in the project, then click Bind
to an existing resource to select that configuration.
Click Next to continue.
The BusinessWorks project is created
in the Logical view and the TRA file is created in the Physical view. The project and the
file are associated by means of an entry in the Environment.
