Hi At my last company, we spent a lot of effort on building an automated test rig for our software, because we had to support multiple platforms and all our code required full regression testing. It may be a slightly different scenario to yours, since we were primarily building tools, and also

Brian, You say that you designed all our server code as subroutines such that all of our subroutines had one of two calling interfaces. This would seem to mean that you built and maintained two different versions of every external subroutine/function. Is this correct or am I just missing

G'day Norm, We have a GUI POS and/or Green Screen system that may fit the bill (http://www.stamina.com.au/R5/PointOfSale.htm), but of course POS can cross multiple boundaries (Stock, General Ledger, Debtors etc), so I fear there are more aspects of what you are looking for that you need to

Hi Perry, No - most of the internally used routines had the shorter calling interface, externally facing ones used the extra 'Action' parameter so we could always extend them whilst retaining backward compatibilty. Regards Brian _ From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org

Hi Jerry Like I said, we designed our software from the ground up to fit this scheme, so there wasn't any conversion involved. The result of having been bitten by a previous piece of development that had grown ugly.. Brian _ From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org

Jerry and All, We did something similar to Brian. All of our Basic code was re-designed to have 6 arguments: PARAM1, PARAM2, PARAM3, PARAM4, RETURN.INFO, and METHOD. That way we could automatically test any program from any other program by knowing every program had 6 arguments. For reports
