Create test with 3rd party application

Post by r00t-shell »

We've been using this software for 2 years. We are a MSP are one big problem that we have been running into lately with changing of employees and aherence to instructions at times is getting tests consistently created.

So what i'm looking for is this:

Is there a way to programatically create tests. I'd like to integrate the creation of tests into our software that create all of our other new customer specifics items. That way i ensure consistency as a new customer comes on board.

Is there way to manipulate the HML database? Can i use the hostmonitor software as a com object? Just looking for ideas.

HMS Scripting ( http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/mfra ... #actScript ) allows you to use LoadTestList, AppendTestList, ImportFromFile and SaveTestList commands. For instance you may use some third party software to create special formatted text file with tests to import into HostMonitor: http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/examples/import1.htm
You may use menu "File > Import to Text File" to import the import file into HostMonitor. Also you may automate importing tests in following way: You should setup "File Integrity" test to check changes in some file with tests, generated by some third party software. To this test you should assign "Execute HMS script" action that will import tests from the file in case it was changed.

Sorry, there are no posibilities to manipulate the HML database beside HMS Scripting.
