Whatever happened to parallel testing as well? When we roll up a new Z/OS, we have to test it, retest it, and then review results for accuracy. If Appl X is to be moved to the server farm (chicken coop) then it ought to have to be proven to be better by parallel testing with actual users doing the work, not some pre-scripted stuff that never fails.
At a PPOE the C/S shot was attempted. What was relatively easy in CICS couldn't be efficiently duplicated in C/S. Oh the dollars that were frittered away only to turn into a legal battle royale!
