Testing on the mainframe without knowing the mainframe

(2E)

Stream: Virtual Room 2
Time: 15:00 - 16:00


Presentation

Writing a test is hard, automating it is even more challenging if you don’t know the interfaces you are working with. Galasa is an open-source project within the Open Mainframe Project that provides your automated tests with a common API to allow you to focus on writing the tests.  From 3270 to Batch jobs, Galasa can help you to test it even as a new mainframer. In this session we will explain what Galasa is and provide a getting started guide, all the way from creating a Galasa test from scratch, running it locally, and running it in a pipeline.
