AccommoDATE
AccommoDATE is a date simulation tool that enables Unisys mainframes to use a date
other than today's date for program testing. It enables users who have a single
system, or those who must use time on a production system, to test new programs
or software modifications under a virtualized date without having to reboot and
without affecting costly production runs.
Unisys users find AccommoDATE to be essential for testing date-sensitive software,
such as quarterly or year-end programs. The primary benefits of AccommoDATE are:
- AccommoDATE enables users to test a variety of programs over
a range of dates, without arranging special time on a computer booted with a simulated
test date. It also means that different programs may be tested simultaneously, each
using a different date.
- AccommoDATE requires no changes to existing runstreams or programs.
Are you inserting special code to "date-test" your software, only to remove it after
testing is completed? With AccommoDATE installed on your system, you can place your
programs directly into production after testing, without code modifications.
