Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the software product or service under test.
Allow limited durability for demo and development IRIS-Docker-micro-Durability During development of a container based demo I found the need to access a fresh docker an instance of IRIS image (e.g intersystems/iris-community:2020.2.0.199.0) over and over. To bypass loading my code repeatedly I developed this workaround.
One of the pain points for maintaining HL7 interfaces is the need to run a reliable regression test upon deployment to new environments and after upgrades. The %UnitTest class allows unit tests to be created and packaged alongside interface code. Test data can also be maintained within the unit test class, allowing for quick and easily repeatable smoke-testing and regression testing.
In this article, I’m excited to introduce CodeInspector, a tool designed to simplify code validation by applying custom rules tailored to your development requirements. Whether you're managing a large codebase or working in an agile environment, CodeInspector helps ensure code quality by offering flexibility and adaptability to specific project needs.
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-HL7v2Gen .
IRIS-HL7v2Gen is a CSP application that facilitates the dynamic generation of HL7 test messages. This process is essential for testing, debugging, and integrating healthcare data systems. The application allows users to generate a wide variety of HL7 message types, validate their structure against HL7 specifications, explore the message hierarchy, and transmit messages over TCP/IP to production systems. These features are particularly useful in settings where compliance with HL7 standards is mandatory for interoperability between different healthcare organizations or systems.
Application Features
Dynamic HL7 Message Generation: Instantly create HL7 messages for a range of message types, facilitating comprehensive testing.
Message Structure Exploration: Visualize the structure of generated messages based on HL7 specifications.
Value Set Visualization View predefined sets of allowable coded values for specific fields.
Message Validation: Validate messages against HL7 standards to ensure compliance.
TCP/IP Communication: Easily transmit messages to production using TCP/IP settings.
Broad Message Type Support: Supports 184 different HL7 message types, ensuring versatility for various healthcare integration needs.
ClassMethod: Generate a Test Message by Invoking a Class Method
Version Support: Currently Supports HL7 Version 2.5
At hackathons that InterSystems participated and I supported, many students were asking how all their teammates could use the same IRIS database that they spun up in a container. I suggested using ngrok to expose their localhost IRIS and realized we don't have documentation on that. Hence, I thought this would be great to let more people knwo about this powerful technique for enhancing collaboration during development and testing.
