Creating and editing a test message

To use the Test Client, you must create or edit a test message to send to your message flow.

Before you start:

Complete these tasks before you edit your test message:
  1. Opening the Test Client editor
  2. Configuring the test settings
A number of editors are available in the Test Client for creating a test message. The most appropriate editor to use depends upon the type of test message you want to send to your message flow.
  • If the input node that you want to send the message to for the test expects an XML message, and the message flow is associated with a message definition, the Edit as XML structure editor is available.
  • If you want to send an XML message, but do not have a message definition defined, or you want to create a test message that is not in XML format, you can use the Edit as text editor.
  • If you want to use an existing test message from a workspace resource or file system file, you can use the Import from external file editor.
  • Alternatively you can import an existing test message into the Edit as text editor, or take the generated source from the Edit as XML structure editor and paste it into the Edit as text editor.

The Test Client provides limited support for the generation of XSD and WSDL test messages. If the Test Client cannot generate the test message automatically, you can create the test message by using either the Edit as text or Import from external file method described in this topic.

Select from the following options to create and edit a test message:

Next:

Ensure that you have selected the correct input node to send the test message to in your message flow. Click Send Message to send your test message to the selected input node. If this is the first time you have sent a message using this Test Client file, the Deployment Location wizard opens. See Selecting the deployment location for the message flow.
