Test Automation For Mainframe Applications

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Mainframe systems run core transactions but can be modernized: z/OS hosts REST-facing services, teams use Rational Developer and Test Environments for Z to spin up z/OS on Linux for tests, and Walmart’s caching service runs in assembler/COBOL on z/OS at 1/5 the cost of the failed distributed build and supports millions of transactions a day. Automated unit and interface tests, virtual services and database virtualization cut weeks of testing to hours; one site provisions full test z/OS LPARs in 40 minutes to provision with a goal of 3 minutes.
