Generate an EJB Baseline

Use the following procedure to generate an EJB baseline from a set of transactions in the CAI database.

Follow these steps:

1. Add one or more EJB transaction frames to the shelf.
2. Open the shelf.
3. Click Create Baseline.
4. To change the default name, select the name and make your edits, then click to save.
5. Click the downward-facing arrow.
6. If the creation mode fields are available, select an option:

   Stateful

   Create a baseline that contains one or more test cases that apply to an entire conversation or session, instead of simply one of its transactions. This option is not available for merged transactions.

   Consolidated

   Create a baseline that contains a single test case and a data set.

   Expanded

   Create a baseline that contains a suite of tests (one for each transaction) and a suite document for running the tests.

7. Specify the type of step that is included in the test case:

   Use Application Test Steps

   The test case includes a step that corresponds to the transaction frame that you added to the shelf. For example, selecting a SOAP frame results in a test case that includes a Web Service Execution (XML) step.

   Use Transaction Frame Step

   The test case includes an Execute Transaction Frame step.

8. (Optional) Configure the baseline to use magic dates.

   Apply magic dates to test cases

   Converts the date strings in the baseline test case or suite to variable definition strings. For example, instead of a string that contains a specific date and time, the string can contain a function that specifies seven days from the current date and time. This behavior is equivalent to the doDateDeltaFromCurrent form of magic dates in CA Service Virtualization. If this option is unsupported, the option does not appear.

9. (Optional) Specify a test case to be used as a template for the baseline.
10. If the following fields are available for editing, configure them:

    JNDI Factory

    The JNDI factory class to use when generating EJB baseline tests.

    JNDI URL

    The JNDI URL to use when generating EJB baseline tests.

    Security Principal

    The JNDI user to use when generating EJB baseline tests.

    Security Credentials

    The JNDI password to use when generating EJB baseline tests.

11. Click Create.
12. Select the project where the baseline will be created.
13. Click Create.
