The XTT Link Action Test Tool is a tool used to execute Link Actions in a localized environment (e.g. through the XTT Link Actions Sandbox) and validate their functionality through defined test procedures. The tool provides feedback in the form of success / fail messages during script execution with matching results added to the configuration files.
Link Actions provide a generic, extensible framework for direct, automated communication between external systems and TraceLink’s Multienterprise Information Network Tower (MINT) solution. A Link Action consists of three parts:
- JavaScript to make API calls to or from an external system.
- Transform to map the data to or from TraceLink’s required canonical formats.
- Configuration parameters to connect to the external system.
The XTT Link Actions Test Tool is used in conjunction with the XTT Link Actions Sandbox to run the Link Actions locally. These two tool make up the XTT Link Actions Developer Kit.
