The following diagram shows the logic flow of the job and steps within the job for the processing cycle that creates two GDG iterations and then compares the two iterations. The first iteration contains records based on literal values or expected values. The second iteration contains literal values and calculated values or actual values. The last step in the job will compare the expected iteration with the actual iteration.

Operating Systems and Supporting Software |
Note: We use Windows/7 with Micro Focus Developer as the primary development and testing system. Once testing is complete in the Windows/7 environment the application is migrated and tested on additional systems.
The input is two (2) sequential files and each file contains three (3) records. JCL is included to create the input (this suite of programs uses Partitioned Data Set Members or PDSM's as input). The following shows the content of the PDSM's.
Each record contains four (4) fields. The 1st field contains the letter "R". The 2nd field is a five (5) digit number used as the numerator of a fraction. The 3rd field is a five (5) digit number used as the denominator of a fraction. The 4th field is a number with five digits, six decimal positions and an explicit decimal point. This member is created using all literal values and is used to define the expected results.
R,00001,00008,00000.125000 R,00003,00008,00000.375000 R,00022,00007,00003.142857
Each record contains four (4) fields. The 1st field contains the letter "R". The 2nd field is a five (5) digit number used as the numerator of a fraction. The 3rd field is a five (5) digit number used as the denominator of a fraction. The 4th field is a number with five digits, six decimal positions and an explicit decimal point. This member is created using literal values for the first three fields. The 4th field is set to zeroes and will be replaced with a calculated value or actual result during execution of the job. The calculated results should be equal to the results defined in the preceding step.
R,00001,00008,00000.000000 R,00003,00008,00000.000000 R,00022,00007,00000.000000
The output for this job is two (2) sequential files and each file contains three (3) records. This suite of programs uses GDG Iterations as output. The following shows the content of the GDG Iterations.
The following shows the content of the GDG output. For normal processing the content of the GDG pair should be equal.
R,00001,00008,00000.125000 R,00003,00008,00000.375000 R,00022,00007,00003.142857
Note: The REVIEWX1 step does a compare of the two GDG Iterations and the results are written to SYSOUT.
This section will focus on the tasks that will create a baseline for testing, execute the job with a normal EOJ and execute the job with an ABEND and a job restart.

A List of the Execution Tasks |
A JCL member (JCLRSTJ0.jcl) is supplied that will create a baseline test environment. This JCL member will delete the previous GDG's and Files created by a previous execution of this suite of programs.
This section will describe the process for running the job to a successful End of Job with a Zero return code. The last job step will execute a review of the results using a data file compare of actual to expected.
To create a baseline testing or reference environment submit and run the JCLRSTJ0.JCL member. This job may be submitted form the Enterprise Server Administration screen or from the command line. The following shows the command line syntax used to submit the job.
C:\SIMOSAM1\TEST\LOADLIB>C:\ ezschedule SIMOBATA JCLRSTJ0
Make sure the JCLRSTP2.CTL file contains the following three records. Typically, the high-lighted field of the second record is changed to all zeroes to force a divide-by-zero (RTS0048) ABEND condition. Make sure it is changed back to a value of 00008 (it must be five digits).
R,00001,00008,00000.000000 R,00003,00008,00000.000000 R,00022,00007,00000.000000
Note The JCLRSTP2.CTL File is located in the PARMLIB sub-directory. It is an ASCII/Text file and may be viewed and changed with a text editor. NotePAD is typically used in the Windows environment.
Submit and run the JCLRSTJ1.JCL member. This job may be submitted from the Enterprise Server Administration screen or from the command line. The following shows the command line syntax used to submit the job.
C:\SIMOSAM1\TEST\LOADLIB>C:\ ezschedule SIMOBATA JCLRSTJ1
This section will describe the process for running the job using input data that will cause an ABEND. A job restart will be included. The last job step will execute a review of the results using a data file compare of actual to expected.
To create a baseline testing or reference environment submit and run the JCLRSTJ0.JCL member. This job may be submitted form the Enterprise Server Administration screen or from the command line. The following shows the command line syntax used to submit the job.
C:\SIMOSAM1\TEST\LOADLIB>C:\ ezschedule SIMOBATA JCLRSTJ0
To cause the job to fail or ABEND with an RTS0048 (divide-by-zero) error change the JCLRSTP2.CTL file that contains the input that is used by a COBOL program. The following shows the input file that contains three records. Change the high-lighted field in the second record to zero (Note: this must be five digits or 00000). This will cause the program to ABEND. Normally, this field would contain 00008.
R,00001,00008,00000.000000 R,00003,00000,00000.000000 R,00022,00007,00000.000000
Note The JCLRSTP2.CTL File is located in the PARMLIB sub-directory. It is an ASCII/Text file and may be viewed and changed with a text editor. NotePAD is typically used in the Windows environment.
Submit and run the JCLRSTJ1.JCL member. This job may be submitted from the Enterprise Server Administration screen or from the command line. The following shows the command line syntax used to submit the job.
C:\SIMOSAM1\TEST\LOADLIB>C:\ ezschedule SIMOBATA JCLRSTJ1
Make sure the JCLRSTP2.CTL file contains the following three records. Typically, the high-lighted field of the second record is changed to all zeroes to force a divide-by-zero (RTS0048) ABEND condition. Make sure it is changed back to a value of 00008 (it must be five digits).
R,00001,00008,00000.000000 R,00003,00008,00000.000000 R,00022,00007,00000.000000
Note The JCLRSTP2.CTL File is located in the PARMLIB sub-directory. It is an ASCII/Text file and may be viewed and changed with a text editor. NotePAD is typically used in the Windows environment.

SimoTime Technologies was founded in 1987 and is a privately owned company. We specialize in the creation and deployment of business applications using new or existing technologies and services. We have a team of individuals that understand the broad range of technologies being used in today's environments. Our customers include small businesses using Internet technologies to corporations using very large mainframe systems.
Quite often, to reach larger markets or provide a higher level of service to existing customers it requires the newer Internet technologies to work in a complementary manner with existing corporate mainframe systems. We specialize in preparing applications and the associated data that are currently residing on a single platform to be distributed across a variety of platforms.
Preparing the application programs will require the transfer of source members that will be compiled and deployed on the target platform. The data will need to be transferred between the systems and may need to be converted and validated at various stages within the process. SimoTime has the technology, services and experience to assist in the application and data management tasks involved with doing business in a multi-system environment.
Whether you want to use the Internet to expand into new market segments or as a delivery vehicle for existing business functions simply give us a call or check the web site at http://www.simotime.com
