Before the harness can execute the tests in a test suite, it requires information
about how your computing environment is configured. You provide the harness
with this information by loading a template (.jtm
),
loading an existing configuration file (.jti
), creating a new
configuration, or changing the values in a configuration.
You can also specify configuration values from the command line when starting the harness GUI.
The quantity and scope of information required to run tests depends on the test suite. Some test suites run in diverse environments (different platforms and networks), while others run in very specific, well-defined environments. The test suite may provide a configuration interview or a template for you to use in creating a configuration for your test run. If your test suite does not provide any of these, consult the test suite documentation for directions about how you can supply the required configuration information.
