24.9 Testing Guided Business Processes

You can create an instance of the deployed Guided Business Process in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Server Control console. This is useful for testing purposes. To create a Guided Business Process instance: 1. In a Web browser, enter the URL of the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control Console as follows: Example 24–3 Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control Console URL http:hostname of Weblogic standalone server:portem 2. Browse for the application and click the SOA composite you created.

3. Select Actions Test service - client.

4. Test the Guided Business Process by entering sample data and invoking the composite. 5. Refresh Fusion Middleware Control Console and verify that the SOA composite instance has been created. Check that the business process completed.

24.9.1 What Happens When You Create a Guided Business Process Instance

After you create an instance in a Guided Business Process, the Guided Business Process state changes to ’In Progress’ and you can view the Activity Guide tree in the client application. 25 Building a Guided Business Process Client Application 25-1 25 Building a Guided Business Process Client Application This chapter explains how to build a client application to display your process instances using the milestones you defined when creating your Guided Business Process.

25.1 Introduction to Building a Guided Business Process Client Application

Guided Business Processes provide you with predefined ADF tasksflows that you can use to build an ADF application to display and run Guided Business Processes. If the provided ADF taskflows do not satisfy your requirements, then you can use the set of APIs that Guided Business Processes provide, to obtain the information that your UI client applications displays. These APIs allow you to obtain data about the milestones and tasks using web services and Enterprise Java Beans.

25.2 Developing a Guided Business Process Client Application with Oracle ADF

A Guided Business Process client application provides a user interface for the Guided Business Process task flow. The client application can be developed in a simple ADF JSPX page in any configuration. Typically, a client application includes a region displaying the Activity Guide tree and another region displaying the details of the specific node selected from the tree.
