ATG DUST: How to invoke OOB Droplets


ATG DUST(Dynamo Unit and System Tests) is a framework for building JUnit tests for applications built on the ATG Dynamo platform. This framework allows one to quickly write test code that depends up Nucleus or ATG Repositories.

You can download the latest version of ATG DUST from http://sourceforge.net/projects/atgdust/. It provides both both src and lib files.

To write an ATG JUNIT testcase to invoke an existing OOB Droplet, follow the following steps :

  1. Create an Eclipse project with the downloaded src and lib files.
  2. Give class path to the follwing files : <ATG_Folder>\das\lib\classes.jar , <ATG_Folder>\dps\lib\classes.jar  and <ATG_Folder>\das\lib\resources.jar ,  <ATG_Folder>\dps\lib\resources.jar
  3. Create an environment variable DUST_HOME and point it to your ATG junit folder, for example: D:\SonyTools\Atg_DUST_JUnitTest\java
  4. To compile the ATG DUST for ATG 2007 version, edit the downloaded DUST java src file atg.servlet.ServletTestUtils to correct the imports atg.test.io.ByteBufferInputStream; and atg.test.io.ByteBufferOutputStream;
  5. Create a folder named “licenseconfig” under DUST_HOME and copy the ATG License files from <ATG_Folder>\home\localconfig\ to this new licenseconfig folder.
  6. Create your test java file, for example find below the DropletInvokerTest.java to do the unit testing of the OOB droplets : /atg/dynamo/droplet/Switch  and /atg/dynamo/droplet/ForEach.
  7. Create a folder named \data\DropletInvokerTest\config\  in the  <DUST_HOME>\src folder if your test file is DropletInvokerTest.java
  8. After doing the build, execute your code by invoking Run as JUNIT Test from Eclipse.

ATG Search - search engine tuning settings

In this blog, I am going to list the best tuning settings for ATG Search engine. The AESoapConfig.xml, AESoapWaspConfig.xml  and AEConfig.xml are the xmls referred below and you can find it @  <ATG_DIR>\<Searchx.x>\SearchEngine\<operating_system>\bin\ folder. (1)  Make sure that the AESoapConfig.xml's rwTimeout is less than or equal to routing's readTimeoutMs. You could find the routing's readTimeoutMs @ atg\search\routing\SearchEngineService component.               rwTimeout is the  length of time in seconds to wait before a read or write operation times out on an active connection. The number can be decreased to improve performance. However, a value that is too low could cause slow connections to be prematurely closed. (2)  Adjust the number of engine threads to match the number of CPUs available to the engine. Note that the minimal value for maxThreads and maxSpar...

Income Tax process and e-filing

http://financeminister.in/income_tax_calculator.php https://incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in Below I am listing the step-by-step activities of the Tax Process that a working professional need to do in a given Financial Year. Here FY refers to Financial Year  and  AY refers to Assesment Year. Each month we will pay the Tax (From APRIL 20xx to MARCH 20xx+1) through our Employer for the FY 20xx – 20xx+1. In the month April 20xx, we will give the investment details to the employer (in our employer specified portal) for the FY 20xx – 20xx+1. In the month January 20xx+1, we will give the investment proof details , Rent receipts… to the Employer Finance Department for the FY 20xx – 20xx+1. In the month MAY/JUNE 20xx+1, employer gives the Form 16 for the FY 20xx – 20xx+1 to us (The proof given by the employer to the employee for the tax paid by the employee). In the month July 20xx+1 (on or before July 31st of every year), we will fill the ITR forms (earlier it was NayaSaral f...

ATG CA - different activity sources used @ BCC

Read about how a new link can be added in BCC home page @  http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2012/03/atg-ca-bcc-home-screen-how-to-add-new.html Normally an ActivitySource.properties file define the set of actions that it supports under a genericActivityDefinitionFile. But some ActivitySource.properties  define the actions  using the workflowActivityDefinitionFiles. For example consider the default "Content Administration" ,  "SearchAdministration",  " Merchanding "  and "Personalization" options in BCC homepage. Below I listed the ActivitySource.properties and other properties for these links. To get all these activitysource names, just take the / atg/bizui/activity/ActivityManager  component @ dyn/admin. Content Administration ActivitySource  --> /atg/bizui/activity/PublishingActivitySource genericActivityDefinitionFile Search Administration ActivitySource  --> /atg/bizui/...

IFSC and MICR code

For internet banking third party transfer you might need the IFSC or MICR code. IFSC or Indian Financial System Code is an alpha-numeric code that uniquely identifies a bank-branch participating in the NEFT system. MICR or Magnetic Ink Character Recognition is a character recognition technology used primarily by the banking industry to facilitate the processing of cheques. Please find below some useful links to get the IFSC and MICR code for a bank branch: http://rbi.org.in/scripts/neft.aspx http://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/content/docs/67440.xls http://bankifsccode.com/ http://banks-india.com/ifsc-code.php http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Financial_System_Code http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_ink_character_recognition
