iTest: What is the licensing behavior or usage for iTestCLI and iTestRT?

Environment/Versions
  • Spirent iTestRT.
  • Spirent iTestCLI.
Answer

iTestCLI:

  • Requires licenses when we use “-g” option to execute GUI tests (Swing, Web, VNC etc.). And the type of license used depends on the licenses configured in iTest-GUI. i.e., if the iTest is configured with Enterprise licenses then iTestCLI will also use the same license.
  • If we are running tests other than the GUI tests, where we don’t need to use “-g” option iTestCLI will not use any licenses.
  • If we want to run test cases from two different workspaces in parallel with “-g”, then iTestCLI will consume two licenses (Enterprise/Runtime).

iTestRT:

  • iTestRT will always use runtime licenses.
