Testing the interface

You have now completed the necessary steps to create an interface for viewing orders and viewing inventory. To test your interface:

  1. Switch to the Web perspective.
  2. Expand Project501 > Web Content.
  3. Right-click index.html and select Run on Server.
  4. A Server Selection dialog opens. Verify that Scenario server is selected by default and click Finish.
  5. Click View orders - Launch in main browser window to invoke the administrator application. After logging in with your iSeries user ID and password (for the iSeries server you used while developing this project), you will be directed to the following page:
    This screen capture shows the View Orders application, listing various product numbers with their price, date last updated, and status. You can put an X beside an order number to retrieve details about that product.
    Try entering X beside any of the product numbers to see details about that product.
  6. Click the back arrow to get to the index.html page, and click View inventory - Launch in main browser window to invoke the customer application, and you will be directed to the following page (after you log on to your iSeries server with your user ID and password):
    This screen capture displays the customer-side application where you can view inventory and click on inventory images to obtain more details about a particular item.
    Try clicking an image to display details about a particular item.

You are now finished the module! You have created a user interface to view inventory and order items.
