Congrats Craig! Thanks for all of your mentoring!!!!! :D

We are struggling to understand because the type of test automation you are trying to get is something most of us have never tried, nor would ever try. The cost benefit of automating the running of DataStage jobs through a test tool is dubious. This is not a end user GUI tool where test automation ...

No, routines parameters values that are returned from C++ functions that come from the Datastage API.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? :D

Running jobs has always been the easy part of testing, verifying results has always been the hard part. Automation of jobs can be done via the API but all that time would probably give you very little benefit. It's having a good regression testing strategy with static test data and a tool to verify...

Looking to connect DataStage ActiveX (COM) controls to a third Party for test automation. Can this be done through routines/plug-ins?

Any COM object should expose its methods to anything that calls it. All you need is to figure out how. The dsobjects.dll is not well documented, though most of the objects are described fairly well in a UniVerse manual called UniObjects Developers Guide which you can download from IBM's web site.

We want to connect the ActiveX (Com) to a third party open API ActiveX DCOM Server. We want to export the DataStage ActiveX (Com) Controls to the third party ActiveX DCOM Server. Is this Possible?
