Installation Verification Procedure and Demo Session

When you complete this session, you will understand how to use CA Verify for VTAM to test application program changes.

The session uses a demonstration program that is distributed and automatically installed with CA Verify for VTAM.

Here's what you will do:

First, you will log the input and output screens associated with the demo program to create a test stream.
Next, you will change the demo program, deliberately creating an error.
Then you will run the logged test stream. CA Verify for VTAM will detect the error in the demo program when it compares the logged output screens with the output screens produced during the run.
Next, you will correct the demo program.
Finally, you will retest the corrected program with CA Verify for VTAM.

To simplify the demo session, you do not actually have to change the demo program. Instead, three versions of the demo program exist:

Version of Demo	Description
DEMO OLD	The original version before any changes
DEMO BUG	The changed version with the error
DEMO NEW	The corrected version

The demo program is a Customer Maintenance Program. You will perform a simple inquiry to list information for a customer.

Note: The defaults at your installation may differ from the delivered defaults, so some of your menus may differ slightly from the menus presented here. These differences won't affect your use of the demo session.
