JMS settings

Link each of these properties to a test input variable or a test variable, as needed.

UI Elements	Description
JNDI initial context factory	The fully qualified class name of the factory class that will create an initial context. It provides a list of context factories and enables manual entries.
JNDI provider URL	The URL of the service provider. For example: Websphere - iiop://myserver:myport
JMS connection factory	The JNDI name of the JMS connection factory. This setting is unique for each test.
JMS security principal	Identity of the principal (for example the user) for the authentication scheme.
JMS security credentials	The principal's credentials for the authentication scheme.
JMS Client ID	Client identifier for the connection. The ID you provide is used in subscribe and receive activities, making your test more readable.
SSL password	If you are using a secured queue, provide the client-side SSL settings: The password for the private key or identity store. The full path to the file the represents the set of trusted certificates to use. The full path to the client-side identity file to use.
SSL trusted certificate
SSL identity
Number of JMS connections per process	The number of JMS connections each execution process creates. The default is 1, and the maximum is 50. The fewer connections you have, the better your performance.
Received message timeout options	The timeout for received messages. Indefinite wait. Wait as long as required for the message before continuing. No wait. Do not wait for the Receive message, and return control to the script immediately. If there was no message in the queue, the operation fails. User defined timeout. Wait a specified number of seconds for the message. If it does not arrive, the operation fails.
User defined timeout	The amount of seconds to wait for the message before timing out. The default is 20 seconds.
Automatically generate selector	Generates a selector for the response message with the correlation ID of the request (No by default). Each JMS message sent to the server has a specific ID. Enable this option if you want UFT One to automatically create a selector that includes the message ID. This option only affects the Send and Receive Message from Queue activity.
