External tools

IBM® Rational® Integration Tester is primarily GUI-based, but the application also supports the running or viewing of tests, suites, and stubs outside of the Rational Integration Tester GUI.

Several methods of externally running or viewing Rational Integration Tester test artifacts are available:

Command-line execution: After they are created in the GUI, tests, stubs, and suites can be run manually or in an automated fashion from the command line.
Note: Command-line execution is supported on Microsoft Windows and UNIX platforms.
Generating Apache Ant scripts: Rational Integration Tester can generate a custom Apache Ant script that runs selected tests, suites, or stubs as part of your overall build process.
Generating VAPI-XP scripts with HP Quality Center: Rational Integration Tester can generate a VAPI-XP Java™ script that can be pasted into HP Quality Center to run the selected test, suite, or stub as part of your Quality Center test plan.
HP QuickTest Professional: Resources from Rational Integration Tester can be run from QuickTest Professional (and vice versa) by using scripting and command-line options in both tools.
Jenkins: Test results can be viewed within Jenkins. For more information, see Viewing the test results in Jenkins

Note: If command line or Apache Ant execution is used in projects that use permissions, single sign-on must be configured. Single sign-on configuration can be achieved by adding a properly configured krb5.ini file (one that includes your realm and key distribution center) to your Windows directory (typically C:\WINDOWS). Alternatively, these details can be provided as arguments in Library Manager (for command line) or within the Apache Ant script (manually added). For more information, see Working with the Library Manager.
