Test LikeMinds Personalization Server

After configuring WebSphere Commerce to use the LikeMinds Personalization Server, and publishing a sample store in WebSphere Commerce, you can test LikeMinds Personalization Server.


Procedure

  1. Register two different users with the sample store.

  2. For each user, browse the store catalog, add some items to the shopping cart, and then exit the store.

  3. On the LikeMinds Personalization Server machine, do the following:

    1. Start a DB2 command session or an Oracle SQL*Plus session, depending on the database management system used for the LikeMinds Personalization Server database.

    2. Connect to the LikeMinds Personalization Server database.

    3. Issue the following SQL query:

      select * from lps_user_data where resource_id is not null;
      

      This query should show two new records for the two different users registered in the sample store earlier.

    4. Issue the following SQL query:

      select * from lps_item_data where resource_id is not null
      

      This query should show new records inserted for the items that the users viewed in the catalog or added to their shopping carts.

    If the SQL queries return the results described, your installation and configuration was successful.
