In order for the JavaTest harness to execute the test suite, it requires information about how your computing environment is configured. The JavaTest Configuration Editor uses an interview to simplify the process of collecting this information.
Because the quantity and scope of this information depends on the test suite, a test suite may include a specific interview for the Configuration Editor to use.
The information collected by the interview is written to a configuration file (.jti) and used by the JavaTest harness to derive the environment variables required execute the test suite.
