Oracle BRM: What is the name of the tool provided by Oracle for automated testing?

 Pinata Opcoder

Pinata opcoder is a tool that is provided by Oracle for automated testing of BRM applications.


Oracle BRM's testing tools can be downloaded from the link below:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/apps-tech/index-098865.html

Note: Refer to the 'opcoder_user_manual.pdf' file for more details about configuring the test cases for Oracle BRM.

The creation of a basic PINATA / Opcoder test involves the following steps:

1) Write out your Test Cases as comments in a PINATA script
2) Turn Recording On
3) Record your Test Cases, following the Recording hints given below
4) Mark your test cases with “fetch-opc”. Keep the individual opcoder files small to allow simple rerecording of the parts if necessary.
5) Extract your .opc (opcoder) files to a test directory
6) Test and debug your scripts by playing them back, one at a time

Note: Include a "Setup", "Test", and "Clean-up" section for each of your test cases. Your piñata/opcoder.

scripts should run from start to finish, repeatedly without failing. This greatly simplifies test development.

Note: You should avoid platform specific calls. Pinata makes this quite doable with its platform specific variables. Pinata and opcoder scripts should always run, without change on all Portal platforms.

Oracle BRM: Utilize the BRM's MTA framework to use a file instead of searching the database

The BRM MTA's framework supports three search options:  Search for objects stored in the BRM database Search for objects stored in a file Passing objects directly to the search opcode. You specify the search option in the PIN_FLD_SEARCH_FLIST substruct in the global flist. To search for objects in a file, you specify the name of the file where the objects are stored. For example: 0 PIN_FLD_SEARCH_FLIST    SUBSTRUCT [0]  1     PIN_FLD_FILENAME          STR [0] "file name"  1    PIN_FLD_COUNT             INT [0] 2  Important: The file specified in PIN_FLD_FILENAME  must  be a text file and  must  have the same format as the search results flist. The following is an example of the text file: 0 PIN_FLD_RESULTS          ARRAY [0]  1    PIN_FLD_ACCOUNT_OBJ       POID [0] "/account" 123 0  0 PIN_FLD_RESULTS...
