NTLMv2 authentication requires access to a third-party library. To record and execute a
test that contains NTLMv2 authentication, you must download the library and place it at the right
location.
Before you begin
Before you can test SOAP-based services that use security
algorithms, you must obtain and install a third-party library file.
About this task
By default, the HTTP test generation does not enable NTLMv2
authentication, even if it was part of the recording. To automatically
enable the correct NTLM version from the recording, set the NTLM V2
setting to
Automatic in the HTTP Test Generation preferences.
Procedure
To configure the workbench to enable NTLMv2 authentication
- Download the archive from
http://jcifs.samba.org/src/jcifs-1.3.18.zip
- Unarchive the zip file and copy the JAR file to the installation
directory: InstallationDirectory\plugins\com.ibm.rational.test.lt.provider_<version>
- To automatically enable the correct NTLM version from the
recording, In the workbench, click and set the NTLM
v2 setting to Automatic.
Results
When a test was recorded with NTLMv2, the
NTLM
V2 setting is selected in the test editor, under
NTLM
