Modifying message-based stubs
You can use either the Test Editor or the Stub Editor to create, modify, and enhance any legacy or new stubs created by HCL OneTest™ API.
For example, you may want to create an advanced message-based stub that can record and report its internal state so that you can create a virtualized application that replicates a complex live transaction processing system.
The following table outlines how to open the Test Editor and the Stub Editor.
