IBM Debug Tool for z/OS enables you to examine, monitor and control the execution of C, C++, COBOL and PL/I programs. This sophisticated program debugger provides multiple conditional and unconditional breakpoints, step mode debugging, and the ability to monitor and update variables and storage. Debug Tool is an interactive source-level debugging tool for compiled applications in a variety of development environments.
Xpediter is Compuware’s mainframe application interactive debugging tool. It also offers code coverage for mainframe application analysis.
IBM Fault Analyzer for z/OS helps developers analyze and fix system and application failures for CICS, WebSphere MQ, IMS and DB2 environments. When an application ends abnormally, Fault Analyzer is automatically engaged, gathering real-time information about the event and its environment at the time of failure. This helps the development team to identify the cause, analyze what went wrong and resolve the problem in a more timely and efficient manner to avoid costly interruptions that could jeopardize application schedules and outcomes.
Intelligent Analysis and Visualization of Mainframe Programs Topaz for Program Analysis is part of the Compuware Topaz suite of mainframe development and testing tools. It helps developers understand unfamiliar or complex mainframe applications through a visual representation of both the code structure and logic as well as the actual I/O and program trail during execution. Topaz for Program Analysis includes Runtime Visualizer, a feature that provides unprecedented graphical visibility into often-complex interactions between mainframe programs. This visibility makes it easy for veteran and novice developers alike to quickly understand, update and troubleshoot even the oldest and most complex mainframe code. With Topaz for Program Analysis, developers can: See dynamic, graphical mapping of program-to-program calls Pinpoint performance bottlenecks, inefficiencies and inter-program impacts Analyze and understand deeper program details See a “snapshot” of a program’s real behavior in production under present conditions Group together source code for programs into Java-like “projects” Discover and investigate dependencies across programs and copybooks, without moving code off the mainframe See an instant static visual summary of a single program Support both COBOL and PL/1 applications.
Topaz for Enterprise Data is part of the Topaz suite of mainframe development and testing tools. It enables developers and data architects to discover, visualize and work with both mainframe and non-mainframe data in a common, intuitive manner. Topaz for Enterprise Data enables developers to: Visually manage vast quantities of data objects using the Data Relationship Visualizer Visually understand and tune complex related data extracts to create optimal test data with the Extract Visualizer Edit multiple datatypes with a single Enterprise Data Editor Easily compare data Search for data values in one or more files Process related subsets of data with minimal database expertise Maintain relationally intact data based on referential integrity (RI) or application relationships (AR) Extract relevant data using easy-to-use selection criteria or key values Load data into new or existing objects and apply necessary data transformation rules Execute a list of specifications as a group Leverage Test Data Privacy to mask sensitive data to protect individuals’identities and business-confidential data
CA SymDump Batch helps you identify and resolve mainframe batch dumps as quickly as possible, promoting increased application stability and reliability.
Hiperstation provides automated functional testing capabilities that help DevOps teams reduce time-consuming, manual steps and ensure mainframe applications are thoroughly tested to safeguard superior performance, reliability and security.
