Starting and stopping the WebSphere Commerce Test Server via command line
Use the command line to start your test server outside of Rational Application Developer. Starting it with the command line reduces the system resources used and might result in better performance.
About this task
We can start and stop the WebSphere Commerce Test Server within the WebSphere Commerce Developer with Rational Application Developer open. However, we can run the WebSphere Commerce Test Server without running Rational Application Developer's Graphical User Interface (GUI). For example, we can test the code in your development environment and do not need to examine or change the code.
Procedure

- From a command prompt, navigate to the WCDE_installdir\bin directory.
