CA InterTest for CICS Components

CA InterTest for CICS consists of these CICS transactions:

ITST—Displays the ISPF‑like Primary Option Menu, which provides access to all other CA InterTest for CICS and CA SymDump for CICS Option facilities without having to know any other transaction or command.

LIST—Displays online COBOL, PL/1, and Assembler source listings and compiler output.

CNTL—Controls program monitoring.

CORE—Inspects and modifies main storage.

FILE—Displays and updates CICS files, DL/I, DB2, and SQL/DS databases, temporary storage, or transient data.

You can use any of these transactions at any time. Your program does not have to be executing for you to use CORE to display or change the contents of main storage, and you can use FILE to update a file or create a test file whether or not CA InterTest for CICS is monitoring any programs.
