SiteMinder Test Tool

The SiteMinder Test Tool is a Windows-based utility that you can use to check your policy configurations. It simulates the interaction between Agents and Policy Servers, allowing you to test the functionality of the Policy Server without having a Web Agent or Web server installed.

Specifically, the Test Tool acts as an agent sending requests to the Policy Server. These requests enable you to perform functional tests, such as checking if a resource is protected, determining if a user is authenticated, and verifying if a user is authorized to access a resource. You can also use the Test Tool to perform regression tests, which let you compare a series of tests, and stress tests to see how the Policy Server handles simultaneous requests.

To run the SiteMinder Test Tool, run SmTest.exe in the following location:

install_path\sdk\bin\

For information about using the tool, click the Help button in the lower right corner of the SiteMinder Test Tool window.

Note: The Test Tool does not support multi-byte characters.
