Advanced Demo Session › Option 01: Replace a File Control ID › Change the File Name

Change the File Name

CA InterTest for CICS lets you dynamically change an incorrect file name in the middle of your test session. This feature lets you continue testing without recompiling your program. In this case, you can correct a simple typo in program ASMDEMO without interrupting your demo session.

To change the file name

1. Type RO on the command line.
2. Press Enter.

   The Replacement Options menu appears.

   The Set Replacement Options menu lets you dynamically change a program name, file name, transient data queue name, or temporary storage ID. You can set multiple replacement options at the same time; for example, you can change both a file name and a program name.

   In this case, you want to change a file name.

3. Tab to the Replace file name field.
4. Specify the incorrect file name (proth) in the first column and the correct file name (prothlf) in the second column, as the following screen shows.
5. Press Enter.

   CA InterTest for CICS processes the requested replacement option and displays the Program Monitoring menu. While CA InterTest for CICS replaces the incorrect file name during execution, the source listing is unchanged.

6. Type PF4 until you return to the breakpoint.

   The breakpoint for ASMDEMO appears.
