How the Compatibility Test Suite Works

Identity Manager’s Compatibility Test Suite performs a set of standard tests to check the adapter’s supported features. If a particular test requires a feature not provided by the adapter, Identity Manager skips that test.

The Compatibility Test Suite requires certain information, such as a valid user name and password to run a compatibility test on a resource adapter. You can typically use the standard DataProvider (provided with Identity Manager) to supply the data required for the test.

For special circumstances, such as when you want to provide information in a class instead of as an expression in XML, you can write a custom DataProvider.
