IBM DevOps Test Integrations and APIs / Rational Integration Tester supported technologies guide

By Fan Hu posted Mon December 18, 2023 03:40 AM

  

As solution architect of Rational testing tool, from time to time, I need to answer questions from client on whether their applications can be supported/tested by IBM DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Rational Integration Tester). I think it could be a common scenario to others. So I share the result from my research here. 

How to use this list:

  • It's NOT an official documentation on whether our product support somethings or not, so it will not be used as a proof. It’s just a guide from my experience. But I've left the link/proof for every conclusion I made, so you can make a conclusion yourself.
  • Technologies not listed doesn't mean it's NOT supported. It's just not listed yet.
  • It's being updated continuously. Comment is welcome to improve the list.
