Hi All,
I'v read many posts about RAC and IAC, and i can't figure what i'm doing
wrong ... Here is my problem.
I just installed TPTP 4.1.0.1, with required dependencies and i have
created a simple TPTP JUnit test that I can run locally (i guess with the
IAC). What i want to do now is to execute this test remotly (in fact it's
a fake remote test since i want to use the RAC that i installed on the
same host).
1. First question: if i undertood well, i have to use the Agent
controller from TPTP 3.3.0 release since i'm using Windows 2003 Server
with an Intel core as a server. This particular point is really fuzzy,
since the information is hard to get. Indeed, there's no link for the
"regular" agent controller architecture under the TPTP 4.*.*.* download
pages. Maybe i'm wrong, but it's the only RAC that runs on my server, so
it's the one i'm using.
2. I've unpacked it into C:\RAServer, launched the config script,
installed it as a service and started the service. No problem at all, the
server seems to be running and when i checked for the ports (10002, 10003
and 10005) with "netstat -a", ports are here and listening.
3. I've then read the doc about creating a remote JUnit test, created a
test artefact referencing my Junit test suite, created a location with my
server host as parameter (i can't find the port parameter ...), created a
deployment associating the artefact and the location, and finally, created
a run profile using my new deployment instead of the local deployment.
Things going bad from here, I've noticed that my IAC and RAC are
conflicting so i changed ports of my RAC installation (i don't know how to
configure the IAC).
3.1: How do i configure the ports of the IAC (internal agent
controller), where is the serviceconfig.xml file of the IAC ?
3.2: How can i disable the IAC ?
3.3: Where am i supposed to set the port of my RAC (remote agent
controller) in the location asset ?? Since i changed the default ports, i
have to notify the location asset which port to use, i guess ...
This is the first bunch of questions. I have more general questions.
4: What do i need to install on the RAC host ? Is RAC installtion
sufficient or do i need to install eclipse, TPTP, and dependencies ??
4.1: If i need to install eclipse and TPTP on the RAC host, how must i
configure RAC in order to get it using this eclipse installation.
5: How do i run a TPTP Junit test from a script without an agent
controller ? Is an agent controller needed ? I guess so, but ican't get it
to work. By the way, i can't fin any sample about running a TPTP test from
a sh script or a batch script, i mean a real sample, with commands to
call, environement to set and so on.
6: I can see Agent controller and new Agent controller, as i'm using the
Agent controller from TPTP 3.3.0 (because i can't find another), what's
the difference and can i use the "old" agent controller with TPTP 4.1.0.1
or do i have to get the new one, and if yes where ?
I think that's all =)
Any answer about this would be greatly appreciated since i'm fighting
with this remote Junit test thingy for weeks now !!
Best regards
BQ.

Hi Bertrand,
Let me try to answer your questions inline:

Running a test locally and remotly only differs by the physical host
specififed in your location asset. The rest is transparent, assumming the
Agent Contorller or IAC is running on the target host.

The WINDOWS-IA32 Agent Controller
( http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/downloads.php?url =drops/TPTP-4.0
..1.1.html&link=link4) will work on Windows 2003 Server.

The IAC and Agent Controller should not conflict. At any time if the Agent
Controller starts runnning, the IAC termiantes opertion and vise-versa.
Please open a defect in the TPTP Bugzilla DB
( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?classification=T PTP) for this
probelm.
> 3.1: How do i configure the ports of the IAC (internal agent

Actauly IAC stands for Inetergrated Agent Conotrller. Its configuratrion is
in:
<TPTP install
directory> \eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.hyades.execution_4.1.0.20060220 1244\i
ac-runtime
Moving forward, we will have a perfernce dialog for some more common IAC
settings.
> 3.2: How can i disable the IAC ?
It is slef-disabling as mentioned above.

This is a defect. I have opened defect
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=128969.

Only the Agent Controller is required on the target host.

See above.

The Agent Controller will always be needs for test execution. You may find
more informaiton on the Automatable Service Framework (eg.. launching tests
from scripts and applications) from:
Help >> Help Content >> TPTP Tester guide >> Performance testing with TPTP
>> Launching tests from scripts and applications

From a compatibility standpoint, both Agent Controller are equivilent. For
TPTP V4.1.0.1, use the 'old' Agent Contoller. For more information on the
new Agent Contorller, see:
http://eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/releasenotes/agentcon troller_new/releasenotes4_1_0.html

Hi Bertrand,
Thanks for your interest in using the RAC and IAC. First of all, the
TPTP 4.1 RAC is available from the following URL:
http://www.eclipse.org/tptp/home/downloads/downloads.php?url =drops/TPTP-4.1.0.html&link=link1
They are located under the section "Agent Controller" and should be able
to run on your Intel Core server.
If you have started the RAC on the same machine you run Eclipse + TPTP,
you are by default using the RAC but not the IAC. The IAC will be used
whenever there is no running RAC on the local machine. Since the IAC is
integrated with the Eclipse workbench, there is no configuration
required. Also, since IAC is only for local use, it is not listening to
any socket at all.
Currently it is not possible to disable IAC explicitly. You can only do
so by starting a RAC on the local machine which prevents the IAC from
being used.
You can change the RAC port to use for Test by selecing
"Window->Preference..." from Eclipse and under the "Test" category you
can enter whatever port you want to use as well as the default host.
If you are planning to deploy test cases remotely to another machine,
you will just need the RAC as well as a supported Java runtime installed
on that remote machine. Eclipse and TPTP are not required on the remote
side.
Currently I don't think you can run a TPTP JUnit test case all by itself
since it is dependent on the TPTP Execution Framework - which in turn
depends on the RAC/IAC.
Regarding the new Agent Controller, it was release from TPTP 4.0 as a
technology preview. In TPTP 4.1 it is available on the Intel-based
platforms but it does not have the capability to run TPTP Test yet.
Therefore, you may have to stick with the RAC for the TPTP 4.1 release.
Regards,
Samson
