I have been assigned the task to research debug tool for our shop. We
are mostly an LE COBOL shop and do batch and CICS processing equaly. I
reviewed IBM debug tool, xpediter, Ca-Intertest,ASG-SmartTest; they
appear to all be somewhat equal in functionalities. So now I am trying,
unsuccessfully to find the answers to some questions that would help us
make a decision.
Are some product easier to use, install, maintain than otherS?.
Do some require pre-processing while other don't?
Can you use the same software for batch and CICS or do you need 2
different components of the product?.
--------------------------<unsnip>--------------------------
My experience here is limited; I've only installed the IBM Debug Tool.
But the install was a cakewalk and maintenance is straightforward SMP/E
processing.
