Run Test Cases with LISA Invoke

The syntax for running test cases with LISA Invoke is:

/lisa-invoke/runTest?testCasePath=testCasePath&stagingDocPath=stagingDocPath&[configPath=configPath]&[async=true]&[coordName=csName] 

The parameters are:

testCasePath

The path to the test case to invoke.

stagingDocPath

The path to the staging document. If not provided, a default staging document is created.

configPath

The path to the configuration. If not provided, the project.config file for the project is used.

async

If true, then the response includes a callback key. If not provided, the parameter is set to false.

coordName

The path to the coordinator. If not provided, the default coordinator name is used.

Example: Synchronous Invocation

The following URL performs a synchronous invocation of the AccountControlMDB test case in the examples project.

http://localhost:1505/lisa-invoke/runTest?testCasePath=examples/Tests/AccountControlMDB.tst&stagingDocPath=examples/StagingDocs/1user1cycle0think.stg 

The following XML response indicates that the test case passed.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Example: Asynchronous Invocation

The following URL performs an asynchronous invocation of the AccountControlMDB test case in the examples project.

http://localhost:1505/lisa-invoke/runTest?testCasePath=examples/Tests/AccountControlMDB.tst&stagingDocPath=examples/StagingDocs/1user1cycle0think.stg&async=true 

The following XML response shows the callback key in the result element.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
