Products

• Service Virtualization

Issue/Introduction

We are having problems trying to build a CICS mainframe virtual service.
We identified that the SV is not performing the fitting of the Response in the defined Layout.
We are sending a file detailing the step-by-step verification of the response with the Layout, detecting that the response data fits the Layout.

The CopyBook has OCCURS statement

   05  LINE-ITEMS OCCURS 0 TO 25 TIMES
