Mock Input Support to Process Starter
Introduction
This document explains the steps for adding the Mock Input to the Process Starter with BusinessWorks 6.8.0 with the Maven Plugin 2.9.0. User will skip the execution by adding the mock input to the Event Source whose process is under Unit Testing. Assertion support will not be provided to the Event Source because Event Source creates BW Jobs continuously and also they are depend on third Party . Unit Testing is specific with a single job only So there is no point or use case to add the Assertions to the Event Source. Hence we are only providing Mock Input support to the Event Source.
When User wants to test the activities from Main Process, it is recommended to Mock the Input of Process Starter.
