This topic provides a reference for configuring SOAtest and Virtualize for popular JMS providers.

Sections include:

Adding Required jar Files

To add the required jar files (listed in the tables below) to theSOAtest and Virtualize classpath, complete the following:

  1. Choose Parasoft> Preferences.
  2. Open the Parasoft> System Properties page.
  3. Click the Add JARS button and choose and select the necessary JAR files to be added.

GlassFish MQ

ForFor GlassFish
Minimum Required jars

GlassFish 3 - Found under [GlassFish install directory]/glassfish/lib: - gf-client.jar

Note that the gf-client.jar references a few dozen other jars from the GlassFish 3 installation. You must reference gf-client.jar from the GlassFish installation directory so that the referenced jars can be found and loaded. GlassFish can be downloaded from http://glassfish.java.net/.

GlassFish 2 - Found under [GlassFish install directory]/lib:

- appserv-admin.jar
 - appserv-deployment-client.jar
 - appserv-ext.jar
 - appserv-rt.jar
 - javaee.jar
 - install/applications/jmsra/imqjmsra.jar

Typical Provider URL Patterniiop://yourhostname:3700
Factory class

JNDI Initial Context factory class
- com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory

Note that GlassFish has another JNDI Initial Context factory class called "com.sun.appserv.naming.S1ASCtxFactory". This class has poor performance and should not be used. Use the mentioned SerialInitContextFactory class instead which is available in both GlassFish 2 and GlassFish 3.

NotesThe GlassFish client and GlassFish server perform a reverse DNS lookup on each other. If the server does not recognize the client's host name, then you can add the client's host name and IP address to the hosts file on the server. If the client does not recognize the server's host name, then you can add the server's host name and IP address to the hosts file on the client. The hosts file is typically /etc/hosts on Unix or %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts on Windows.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS)

ForFor the WAS Default JMS provider. Parasoft recommends the use of IBM's JMS thin client that is provided by WAS 7.0 or later, and which can interoperate with WAS 6.0.2 and later.
Minimum Required jars

Found under [WAS installation dir]/runtimes
- com.ibm.ws.ejb.thinclient_7.0.0.jar
 - com.ibm.ws.orb_7.0.0.jar
 - com.ibm.ws.sib.client.thin.jms_7.0.0.jar

Learn moreWebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, Version 7.0 documentation

What if you don’t have WAS 7.0 or later?

If you aren’t using (or don’t have access to) a WAS 7 installation, download and install the IBM Client for JMS, which also works with WAS 6.0.2 and later:

  1. Download the JMS Client installer jar from http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24012804
  2. Follow the instructions on the download page to install both the JMS and JNDI jars for the Sun JRE. The command to install the client jars is similar to:
    "java -jar sibc_oeminst-o0902.06.jar jms_jndi_sun C:\ibmjms"
    The client jars will be installed under the lib folder.
  3. Add the JNDI property com.ibm.CORBA.ORBInit=com.ibm.ws.sib.client.ORB
    • For simplicity, this jndi property can be set globally in a jndi.properties file in the JRE's lib folder.
    • For the standalone build of this product, the JRE lib folder is under Parasoft/Test/{ver}/plugins/com.parasoft.xtest.jdk.eclipse.core.{platform}.{arch}_{ver}/jdk/jre/lib.
    • This JNDI property is not needed when using the jars from the WAS 7 runtimes folder.

IBM WebSphere MQ (MQ Series)

For

For the WebSphere MQ JMS provider

Minimum Required jars

For MQ 6.0

You can find these under [WebSphere MQ installation directory]/java/lib:
- com.ibm.mq.jar
- com.ibm.mqjms.jar - connector.jar
- dhbcore.jar
- jta.jar

You need to download these:
- MS0B: WebSphere MQ Java classes for PCF — com.ibm.mq.pcf.jar
- ME01: WebSphere MQ - Initial Context Factory — mqcontext.jar

For MQ 7.0

You can find these  under [WebSphere MQ installation directory]/java/lib:

- com.ibm.mqjms.jar
- com.ibm.mq.commonservices.jar  
- com.ibm.mq.headers.jar
- com.ibm.mq.jmqi.jar

You need to download these:
- ME01: WebSphere MQ - Initial Context Factory — mqcontext.jar

MQ Client Download

The jars from [WebSphere MQ installation directory]/java/lib are also included in the MQ Client. The MQ 6 Client is no longer available from IBM. The MQ 7 Client is available at http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24019253

Typical Provider URL Pattern

yourhostname:1414/SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN

Factory class

WebSphere MQ JNDI Initial Context factory class - com.ibm.mq.jms.context.WMQInitialContextFactory

SSL Configuration

WebSphere JMS clients can achieve SSL connections by setting the appropriate properties in the initial context. Both WebSphere MQ and WebSphere JMS clients will set the same properties for SSL connectivity.

JMS messaging without JNDI

Under the properties tab, define the following properties:
Name: Value
provider:  WebSphere MQ
queue.manager: [your queue manager name]
channel: [your channel name]
port: [port number, the default WebSphere MQ port is 1414]
With this configuration, SOAtest/Virtualize will create the connection factory using the provided parameters as follows:

  import com.ibm.mq.jms.*;
  ...
  MQConnectionFactory cf = new MQConnectionFactory();
  cf.setHostName(hostname);
  cf.setPort(port);
  cf.setQueueManager(queuemanager);
  cf.setChannel(channel);
  cf.setTransportType(JMSC.MQJMS_TP_CLIENT_MQ_TCPIP);   
  cf.setFailIfQuiesce(JMSC.MQJMS_FIQ_YES);
  cf.setUseConnectionPooling(true);
 Additional Notes
 

IBM's JNDI provider authenticates itself with the Websphere MQ server by sending the user's login name. This is typically the user name that was provided when logging into the workstation before starting SOAtest/Virtualize.

If the MQ server does not recognize the user name, then your tool will fail with the error "javax.jms.JMSSecurityException: MQJMS2013: invalid security authentication supplied for MQQueueManager".

This error can be resolved by adding a Windows user account on the Websphere MQ server machine. This account should 1) have the same user name as the account on the local machine whereSOAtest and Virtualizeis running and 2)  be a member of the "mqm" IBM WebSphere MQ Administration Group.

Alternatively, use a different user name by changing the value of the  user.name Java System property. This system property can be configured by startingSOAtest and Virtualizeusing soatest/virtualize.exe -J-Duser.name=username where username is the user name you want to use. In some configurations using an empty username via soatest/virtualize.exe -J-Duser.name= will work. Using SYSTEM for the user.name property may also work in some configurations. 

It is also possible to modify Java system properties during test suite execution by using an Extension Tool to call the java.lang.System.setProperty() method from Sun's Java API.

For more details on this error, see http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB/view-topic.php?t=40640.

Other JMS Providers

For other JMS providers, please refer to your vendor guides on how to configure a JMS client to communicate with your system.

Sun JMS

SOAtest and Virtualize bundle a Sun JNDI implementation that stores JNDI bindings in directories and files on the local hard drive using com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory as the Initial Context and a user defined Provider URL (directory) of “C:\JNDIRoot” or something similar.

When using the Sun implementation, you must populate the “C:\JNDIRoot” directory with a .binding file so that fscontext can successfully look up the ConnectionFactory and Queue or Topic objects. Parasoft has put together an example that can be found in the SOAtest/Virtualize installation directory (/examples/jms/JndiFileProviderTest.java), which creates a .binding file.
