Prerequisites
Address the following items prior to performing
this procedure:
- The SAP Mobile Platform SDK 3.0 installer
must already have been run and access to the items it installed
must be available form the system to which the Agentry Test Environment
is being installed.
- Determine the installation location of the Agentry Test Environment
on the intended host system. By default this location is C:\Agentry\Test
Environment. You can specify a different location during
the installation if desired.
- Log into the host system as an administrator, with privileges
to install software to the desired location.
Task
This procedure describes the steps necessary to install
the Agentry Test Environment software component. This component
is used as a client test tool during development of applications
using the Agentry archetype. It is not intended for end users. It
can only be installed to Windows desktop systems and cannot be installed
to mobile devices.
Perform this procedure to:
- Test
modifications of the mobile application, when those modifications
affect client-side behavior or client-server communications or synchronization.
- Test or debug run time issues in a Production environment. The
Agentry Test Environment can be connected to the Agentry Production Server just
as a normal client can.
When this procedure is complete,
the Agentry Test Environment is available for use to test the client-side behaviors
of any modifications made to the mobile application.
- Start the Agentry Test Environment installer on
the host system where you are installing this component by running
the program Agentry_7_0_x_x_TestEnvironment.exe (NOTE:
The value x represents the latest service pack or patch release
of the system, depending on the version downloaded). This displays
the Welcome to the Agentry Test Environment Setup Wizard screen.
- Click the [Next] button to advance the wizard.
This displays the License Agreement screen.
- Click the [Yes] button to accept this agreement
and advance the wizard. The Choose Install Location screen
is displayed.
- Enter the desired directory path in the Destination Folder
field. This can be a new path, an existing location selected by
clicking the [Browse] button, or the default location. Click
the [Next] button to install the Agentry Test Environment
to the specified directory. This displays the Shortcuts for Agentry
Test Environment screen.
- Select the desired shortcut locations by selecting or
deselecting the listed shortcut options. Once the shortcuts are
configured, click the [Install] button to begin the installation
of the Agentry Test Environment software component.
The selected shortcuts are created by the installer.
The Installation Status screen is displayed next indicating
the installation progress. When the installation is complete, the Completing
the Agentry Test Environment Setup wizard screen is displayed.
- To start the Agentry Test Environment now, leave the
box checked on this screen. Otherwise, deselect this box. Click
the [Finish] button to close the wizard.
With the completion of this procedure, the Agentry Test
Environment is installed to the selected location and is available
for use in testing mobile applications in development, configuration,
implementation, or production issue resolution scenarios.
Next
Just as with a standard client installation, the Agentry
Test Environment needs to connect to an Agentry Server to perform
an initial transmit. Prior to performing this transmit, the proper
client platform to be mimicked, enabling or disabling scan and GPS
simulations, and other similar selections should be made.
