The Advanced tab is the place where all the values considered to "outside the normal scope of operation for TETware professional" are placed. It may be that certain Users will use these features regularly however it is felt that overall these functions are "Advanced".
The Advanced tab contains the following items:
The User is able to specify a timeout that should be passed to TETware professional to indicate the amount of time (in seconds) that the TETware professional should wait for a Test to complete. The User is able to specify a value for the Timeout. The Timeout fields are setup such that the User can specify their own Timeout value or they can specify a pre-defined value given in the drop down box, either 10, 20, 50, 100, 200. If a User specified Timeout is required then it can be typed directly into the first field of the drop down box.
The User is also able to specify a "Units" value that will act as a multiplier for the Timeout value. The multipliers are Seconds, Minutes and Hours. Only one multiplier can be specified.
Therefore, if the User chooses to have a timeout of 15 hours, they type 15 into the drop down box and choose "Hours" as the "Units" value. When the User executes the Test Run TETware professional will determine the value of the Timeout in seconds, using 15 * multiplier (in this case 3600) and then pass that value to TETware professional. So for 15 hours the Timeout passed to TETware professional will be 15 * 3600 = 54,000.
If distributed TETware professional is used then it may be that information regarding the Local Systems network address and underlying network protocol is required.
The name of the XTI transport provider identifier on the local system. If this variable is not specified, its value defaults to /dev/tcp.
Possible values:
The value of this variable indicates the underlying transport provider to be used. This variable must always be specified when the XTI network interface is used.
This variable must be specified when the XTI network interface is used and the underlying transport provider is TCP/IP. The value of this variable should be the Internet address of the local system. This address is presented in dot notation and must be an address that can be used to access the local system from remote systems (i.e., it should not be the address of the loopback interface). All four fields in the address must be specified.
This field allows the User to specify the name of the Journal file that TETware professional should use for Journal file entries. If specified this value is passed directly to TETware professional. Please note that the path must be specified as well as the name of the file.
