zUnit: support for nested programs

We have some Cobol programs in which nested programs are used. Unfortunately, this is not currently supported by zUnit.

Add option to test cases and that should be automatically saved in workspace

Currently Debuggger is not integrated with ZUnit.If we need to create test cases for zUnit, we have to go out of our way from our daily routine and do a lot of painful preparation and do the test cases in such a way that zUnit will give some resul...

zUnit should provide option to remove or clear the queues created during recording

zUnit is creating TSQs like A+ 6A²N, A+ Ù7), etc when stop recording is triggered in IDz. These TSQs are not deleted upon completion of the recording activity, thus leaving it in the system causing shortage to tempstorage.

When recording the zUnit test cases, the folder should be defaulted to JCL folder and not the PROGRAM folder

Since we have a JCL folder for zUnit, when ever we do start recording, it should point to JCL folder in default, which will help developer avoid manual selection and its time consuimg as well.

zUnit test case prefix is actually not required and its creating some other issues

Test case perfix overridng other program test cases and its a very high potential issue
6 months ago in IBM Developer for z/OS / zUnit 1 Future consideration

While creating the test case, after we selected "Multiple folder" option, IDZ need to set all the folder name automatically.

Eacn and every time, we need to select manually after we select the option "Multiple folder" and its very time consuming as well. If this is fixd, it would be very helpful to developers.

Utilize user credentials when recording test cases in CICS instead of CICS user credentials

Current process requires RACF rule to permit CICS to store data at user level. This RACF rule or PERMIT would be mitigated if zUnit utilized user credentials. This would reduce customization steps on implementation.

Input / Expected Output terminology is not clear in Test Case Editor

The headlines for Input and Expected Output is confusing in the test case editor for database calls and sub program calls. The phrasing is seen from the calling program (Program under test). An “input” is input to the calling program (PROGRAMA) , ...
