GenITC - VMF Force Multiplier
GenITC with the VMF module is a powerful tool for the development, integration, and interface testing of VMF message based systems.
GenITC/VMF is message set neutral. Since all message sets are defined in a user-configured message database, implementing any or all K-series message sets is simply a matter of creating the corresponding message definitions in the database. Keeping message definitions up-to-date is a matter of either regenerating the message set from a new VMF Integration Database (VID) or running GenITC’s GUI DataMan component to manually update the message definitions.
The message database makes experimenting with, and evaluating, variations of messages for research and prototyping a simple matter of updating message definitions with DataMan.
Any syntactically valid VMF message can be constructed, without consideration for case or condition. For example, generating a message containing two FPIs that are simultaneously set—in violation of the case requirements for that message. Obviously this provides the means by which invalid messages can be fed into a system to test its ability to recognize and reject such messages.
GenITC’s VMF message output is always syntactically correct, even if the semantic content may not be. (Although invalid byte sequences can be generated by other easy-to-employ means within GenITC if the need to test a system interface’s garbage rejection robustness is also needed.)
Any message content can be generated, whether targeted at minimally or fully-populated messages. Any value can be put in any field, whether legal or not—if the values of 12-15 are undefined for a 4-bit field, GenITC can put 12, 13, 14 or 15 into that field. If a field containing a count must be greater than 0 if its FPI is set, GenITC can set its FPI to 1 and its value to 0.
GenITC can respond appropriately to the messages it receives. GenITC’s core capabilities include modifying the messages that pass through it, creating and sending new messages, killing, duplicating, and delaying messages, and responding conditionally to the contents of messages. Data can be pulled out of any field present in a VMF encoded message, or packed into one. Message data can be retained from one message to another to adapt responses to the actual flow of messages, rather than just always producing a fixed, or limited range of, responses.
GenITC
is a leap beyond canned VMF message generators and simulators—configurable
in message content and behavior. There is no better tool than GenITC
for rigorously and pervasively wringing out a VMF message-based system’s
interfaces.
