Testing Join Conditions
While running a launch configuration for a webMethods messaging trigger provides verification of filters and the trigger service execution, it does not test all aspects of a join condition. For example, running a webMethods messaging trigger does not test the join expiration. In addition to running a launch configuration to test a join condition, consider testing the join condition in the following ways:
*Publish documents from Designer using a launch configuration.
You can publish documents by creating and running a launch configuration for a publishable document type.
To test a join condition by publishing documents via a launch configuration, you must use the same activation ID for all the documents specified in the join. If you re-use an activation ID from one test to the next, make sure that the documents sent in the first test are processed before starting the next test.
*Create a service that publishes the documents.
You can also test join processing for a join condition by creating a flow service that invokes a publish service for each of the document types specified in the join condition. Integration Server automatically assigns an activation ID and uses that activation ID for all the documents published in the same service.
During trigger processing and join processing, Integration Server writes messages to the journal log. You can use the contents of the journal log to test and debug the join conditions in the webMethods messaging trigger.
