Note Concerning Natural Single Point of Development:

This command is for mainframes only. If a user has written a program called TEST, then Natural will execute that program when this command is issued in a Windows (or UNIX or OpenVMS) local environment. If there is an active connection to a development server on a mainframe, the mainframe utility TEST is invoked when this command is issued under Natural for Windows.
