Running a message flow application using RAD

Once you have set up a unit test server configuration, you can run a message flow application with a single toolbar button click. This is particularly useful if you have already published (deployed) a message flow that you have subsequently changed, to the unit test server. The following steps show you how to do this from the Broker Application Development perspective.

  1. Select the resource that you want to run. This can be:
    1. A message flow project
    2. A server configuration.
  2. Click the Run on Server icon on the toolbar, or right-click the resource and click Run on Server.

The configuration is published to the target broker and execution group. Check the Event Log for any possible error messages.

Be aware that, when you select the Run on Server, it performs the same action that it was configured to use the last time that you used it.

Note: When changing configurable properties of the broker, ensure that you make changes in the Broker Archive editor, and not the .brokerxml file. If you make changes to the .brokerxml file, they will not be picked up during deployment.
