A T B API Test Base

Interact with Other Systems

    API Test Base interacts with other systems through related Java libraries. When the libraries are not open source, they need to be copied to corresponding folders under <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib.

    Databases

    To use Database Test Step to interact with a database, such as Oracle or SQL Server, copy related JDBC drivers like below. JDBC URL is used in database endpoint for connecting to the database.

    Oracle

    Oracle JDBC driver comes with Oracle installation. For example, C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\jdbc\lib. Copy ojdbc8.jar or ojdbc6.jar to <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/jdbc/oracle folder.

    Sample JDBC URLs:

    jdbc:oracle:thin:@myhost:1521:mySID
jdbc:oracle:thin:@myhost:1521/myServiceName

    SQL Server

    SQL Server JDBC driver can be downloaded from Microsoft web site. After unzipping it, copy sqljdbc41.jar to <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/jdbc/sqlserver folder.

    To enable API Test Base to use Windows authentication to connect to SQL Server, also copy sqljdbc_auth.dll from the unzipped folder to <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/jdbc/sqlserver, and add <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/jdbc/sqlserver to the PATH environment variable of the Windows OS where API Test Base is running.

    Notice that there are two sqljdbc_auth.dll files in the unzipped folder. Use the one from folder x64 or x86 for 64 or 32 bit Windows OS.

    Sample JDBC URLs:

    //  When using SQL Server authentication
jdbc:sqlserver://myhost:1433;database=myDatabase

//  When using Windows authentication
jdbc:sqlserver://myhost:1433;database=myDatabase;integratedSecurity=true

    IBM MQ

    To use MQ Test Step to interact with IBM MQ, download the MQ allclient jar from Maven Central to <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/mq.

    For example, version 9.3.2.1 jar can be downloaded at

    https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/ibm/mq/com.ibm.mq.allclient/9.3.2.1/com.ibm.mq.allclient-9.3.2.1.jar.

    Latest version jar is recommended.

    To interact with multiple versions of MQ at the same time, use the jar of the highest version.

    IBM ACE

    To use ACE Test Step to interact with ACE, copy the <ACE_Install_Dir>/common/classes/IntegrationAPI.jar to the <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/ace folder.

    Solace

    To use JMS Test Step with Solace provider to interact with Solace broker, download the Solace jars from Maven Central to <ATB_DATA_DIR>/lib/solace.

    For example, version 10.19.0 jars can be downloaded at

    https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/solacesystems/sol-jcsmp/10.19.0/sol-jcsmp-10.19.0.jar
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/solacesystems/sol-jms/10.19.0/sol-jms-10.19.0.jar

    Latest version jars are recommended.
