Configuring Tests for the Managed Windows Service Application

The tests to be configured will vary according to the type of application being managed - whether its a standalone application or a web-based application. This topic discusses both these scenarios.

Configuring Tests for a Microsoft .NET Application

If you have managed a web-based Windows service application as a Microsoft .NET Application in eG, then follow the steps below to configure its tests.

As soon as the target application is managed in eG Enterprise, Figure 1 will appear displaying the managed application.

Click on the icon (see Figure 1) corresponding to the displayed application to configure its tests.Figure 2 will then appear.

Figure 2 : Selecting tests for configuration
The UNCONFIGURED TESTS list in Figure 2 lists the tests that need to be manually configured. From here, first choose the Processes test for configuration, and then click the Configure button. Figure 3 will then appear.

Configuring Tests for a Microsoft .NET Client

If you have managed a standalone Windows service application as a Microsoft .NET Client component in eG, then follow the steps below to configure its tests.

As soon as the target application is managed in eG Enterprise, Figure 1 will appear displaying the managed application.
