Every time you install an application of bigger size and get a confirmation message saying "Successfully Installed", you still need a kind of reassurance if that message does translate to the proper functioning of all the application components. For this, you may want to have a tool or utility to check if the installation has happened as desired.
Adeptia Connect provides you a feature, "Diagnostics", that exactly serves such a purpose. You can run the Diagnostics test after installation or an upgrade to verify if the application has been installed or upgraded properly and all the services including process flows, database connections, events etc. are working as expected.
When you run the Diagnostics test, it runs a sample process flow that is bundled with the application and checks the functional status of the following components during the execution of the process flow:
Backend Database
Log Database
Process Flow Repository
Queue Processor
Scheduler
Process Flow's services:
File Source
File Target
Text Layout
Excel Layout
Data Mapping
After the execution of Diagnostics test, a report (Diagnostics report) with time stamp is generated containing the status of all the components and displayed on the Diagnostics page. You can also download this report in PDF format.
Though it is recommended to run the Diagnostics test just after the installation, you can run it as and when you want.
