TestOptimal has two configuration files:

• config/application.properties - server settings, e.g. port#, SSL, etc.
• config/config.properties - controls features in TestOptimal

You may perform customization by adjusting the settings in the above properties file.

Below is a list of typical customization:

• Change Server Port
• Auto Start TestOptimal Server
• Enable HTTPS

By default, TestOptimal Server listens on port 8888. You may change it to a different unused port by editing config/application.properties as an example below:

 server.port=8000

You may set up a scheduled job to auto start TestOptimal Server by running startTestOptimalServer.bat/sh:

• Windows: scheduled task to run startTestOptimalServer.bat following these steps: Main, Trigger, Action, Settings
• Mac / Linux: create a cron job to run startTestOptimalServer.sh

You may enable HTTPS using the self-signed certificate bundled in the download package by editing config/application.properties file per instruction in the file (example below):

 ### support HTTPS: to enable HTTPS, uncomment out following settings and set server.ssl.enabled=true
 server.ssl.enabled=true
 server.ssl.key-store-type=PKCS12
 server.ssl.key-store=classpath:keystore/to.p12
 server.ssl.key-store-password=test@optimal
 server.ssl.key-alias=testoptimal
 security.require-ssl=true

If you wish to use your own certificate, you will need to copy your certificate file into /src/main/resources/keystore/ folder and adjust server.ssl.key-store setting accordingly.

All TestOptimal Servers to must have consistent HTTPS settings.

  • ipof2 - use the IPOF2method
  • basechoice - use Base Choice method
• Exec.DelSnapScreenOnModelStart: Y/N, auto clear files in snapscreen folder before model execution
• Exec.vu.ThreadPoolSize: >0 (default 5), max number of threads allowed for each virtual user (VU) - Concurrent models only
• Graph.printPlantUML: true/false (default false), internal use
