Manage Verify Event steps

A Verify Event step enables you to verify request, response, or exception data that is passed over a monitor wire between source and target components. It also enables you to verify fine-grained trace data that is returned from a test run. If that Verify Event steps can only monitor the events that can be displayed in the test client. There are situations where the SCA run time does not contain enough information for the test client to generate events for some SCA wires. In these cases, a Verify Event steps cannot be used.

The following topics describe how to manage Verify Event steps.

• Adding and running Verify Event steps for monitor requests
  A Verify Event step for a monitor request enables you to verify the request data that is passed to the target component of a wire.
• Adding and running Verify Event steps for monitor responses
  A Verify Event step for a monitor response enables you to verify the response data that is returned from the target component of a wire.
• Adding and running Verify Event steps for monitor exceptions
  A Verify Event step for a monitor exception enables you to verify the exception or fault data that is thrown by the target component of a wire.
• Adding and running Verify Event steps for fine-grained traces
  A Verify Event step for a fine-grained trace enables you to verify fine-grained trace data that is returned from testing a business process, business state machine, or mediation flow.
• Editing Verify Event steps for monitor requests, responses, and exceptions
  In the test suite editor, you can edit a Verify Event step for a monitor request, response, or exception and customize it for specific tests.

  For example, you can select a different wire, interface, and operation for the step.

• Editing Verify Event steps for fine-grained traces
  In the test suite editor, you can edit a Verify Event step for a fine-grained trace and customize it for specific tests.

  For example, you can select a different component, such as a business process, business state machine, or mediation flow.

• Remove Verify Event steps
  

  You can remove any Verify Event steps that are listed in the Test Cases area of the test suite editor. This enables you to more easily manage the remaining Verify Event steps.
