Application Testing and Debugging

TIBCO Business Studio for BusinessWorks bundles some of the runtime components so that you can run and debug an application in the design-time environment.

The menu option Run > Debug or the icon on the tool bar enables you to debug an application. The menu option Run > Run or the icon on the tool bar enables you to run an application.

The Run configurations specify information such as:

  • Bundles to be run.
  • Arguments such as the target operating system, target architecture, target web services.
  • Settings that define the Java Runtime Environment including the Java executable, runtime JRE, configuration area and so on.
  • Tracing criteria for the OSGi JAR file, if needed.
  • Common options such as choosing to save the results either as local files or as shared files, and also to display them in the menus (Debug and/or Run). It also allows you to define encoding for the result files.

Once created, an application can be run using a specific configuration. If a run configuration is not specified, the project displayed in the editor area is launched by default.
