Issue/Introduction

Question:

While monitoring my program using CA InterTest for CICS I received an automatic breakpoint with a code of 06 (ABP06).

How can I resume from this breakpoint and continue testing my program?

Answer:

You can bypass the monitoring of a statement that triggered an automatic breakpoint.

This is outlined in the CA InterTest for CICS Users guide.

Permanent Bypass

To permanently bypass the monitoring of a statement that triggered an automatic breakpoint:

1. Overtype the A on the Source Listing Breakpoint with b. 
2. Press PF5 or PF10 to resume execution. This lets the statement causing the breakpoint to be executed; that is, the bypass function lets the error to occur. 
   Important! This command may be password protected. The default password is $OPT

Temporary Override

To temporarily bypass the monitoring of a statement that triggered an automatic breakpoint:

1. Press PF6 to display the Breakpoint Primary Option Menu. 
2. Select Option 5 Override Automatic Breakpoint.

Note: For fast-path entry, enter =5 on the command line of the Breakpoint display.
The override lets the statement that caused the breakpoint to be executed for this instance, only.
