Intertest
(What)
• CA-Intertest is a full screen , interactive ,menu driven testing and
debugging facility for Cobol programmers .The programmer
controls the test session with CA-Intertest commands .
• Similar to other debugging tools such as Expeditor.
(Why)
• Useful when program is large/complex (or) input data is
voluminous.
• Programmer can enter values for specific fields to test the logic of
the program.
Intertest
• Before you begin testing, you should be aware that when CA-InterTest for
CICS searches the symbolic files for the COBOL programs that you specify
for testing.it tries to match the date and time in the symbolic file to that of
the load module.
BATCH INTERTEST
Operating Environment
• CA-Intertest can be used to test any load module that runs under
MVS, excluding those requiring authorization. COBOL programs to
be tested must be compiled with any COBOL compiler supported by
IBM .
