Environment

The Environment is a part of the Toolkit External Cache that defines these elements:

1. Codes Configuration (codes.xml)
2. Certificate used by the Test Client when initiating a SOAP transaction
3. Private Test Kits configured to match the Codes Configuration (see Configuring Test Kits).

There is always an Environment named default which matches the Test Kit internal to Toolkit. This default Environment always has a codes.xml file. Everything else is optional.

Environment definitions are stored in the External Cache. The default Environment is found at

environment/default/

and its Codes Configuration at

environment/default/codes.xml

If it has a certificate then this content is added

environment/default/keystore/keystore
environment/default/keystore/keystore.properties

where keystore is a Java Keystore and keystore.properties is a Java properties file containing the password to the Keystore file. Example content looks like

keyStorePassword=changeit

New Codes Configurations and Environments are created manually.
