Hi Prasad,

1) You want to retrieve the CICS screen program or the MAP, as per my knowledge, We can retrieve all the elements if they are in the Endevor. But in my practice i have retrieved the CICS programs only, I never come accross retrieving the MAPs.

2) Copy books won't retrieve automatically, If we need test the programs in any environment we should retrieve the copy books also to that environment (Environment like testing/Production).

3) I am not aware of testing the programs through endevor.

Thanks & Regards,
K.V.Ramana Reddy.

Hi Prasad,
First of all Endevor is just a CM product which you can do as you do in VSS etc but only in Mainframes..

1) You can retrieve a CICS screen from Endevor as you do the same process to retrieve for COBOL program. Endevor doesn't matter whether it CICS or cobol or rexx or sas code. Only the processor group defined to that type matters. Endevor is just a repository which it trace every action and loads in MCF file for future references.

2) If you want to change the copy book also along with the program then you need to retrieve other wise you don't need to retrieve copy books. (most of the site installations will have tree structure to pick copy books from different copy libraries)

3). This is completely a busines requirement and how that business aplication setup in Endevor at your site. normal Endveor should have Test region -> QA -> Production but it's not necessariily only one test region. we can create more than one test environments and make use as Unit test, system test and also Integration test as well , preproduction etc..
So answering to your question, we can do testing in Endevor
