Test environment configurations - AWS Mainframe Modernization

Test environment configurations

Test environment configurations allow you to set up the initial set of data and configuration parameters (or resources) with AWS CloudFormation that you need to make the test run repeatable.

For additional information on various concepts, see AWS Mainframe Modernization Application Testing concepts.

Create a Test environment configuration

Configure your test environment to replay and compare test cases in Application Testing.

Set up Test environment configurations
  1. Open the AWS Mainframe Modernization Application Testing console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/apptest/.

  2. In the AWS Region selector, choose the Region where Application Testing is available.

    Note

    Application Testing is currently available in US East (N. Virginia), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Europe (Frankfurt), and South America (São Paulo) regions only.

  3. In the left navigation pane, select Test environment configurations .

  4. Choose Create test environment configuration.

  5. On the Create test environment configuration pane, enter the name and description. Also add your Amazon S3 bucket that contains the CloudFormation template for Application Testing. Additionally, you can add the CloudFormation input parameters that will be used during the CloudFormation stack creation.

  6. Specify your AWS Mainframe Modernization application that will be affected by this test configuration. Add output variable name for AWS Mainframe Modernization application ID, runtime engine (AWS Blu Age non-managed or Micro Focus managed).

    Note

    The output variable name for AWS Mainframe Modernization application ID should match the output variable name from the CloudFormation template for stack creation.

    Important

    AWS Blu Age non-managed runtime also requires you to specify the output variable name for VPC endpoint service ID, output variable name for listener port, and output variable name for WebApp name. These names should match the output variable names from the CloudFormation template.

  7. (Optional) Additional attribute such as output variable name can be defined for the Database Migration Service (DMS) task Amazon Resource Name (ARN), which is used for capturing relational database changes. Another attribute is Source database DDL S3 URI.

    Important

    The output variable name should match the variable name from CloudFormation template.

  8. (Optional) Customize your Key Management Service (KMS) key. For more information, see Managing access to customer managed keys in the AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide.

  9. Choose Create test environment configuration.
