    An example of SOAtest test configuration in the desktop GUI is when you run your TST with user-defined "Example Configuration" or built-in "Demo Configuration." These can be exported from SOAtest desktop to properties files, or if you have not modified them you can reference them directly from command line such as: -config "soatest.builtin://Demo Configuration"

    The error message indicates that the problem is with your -config "C:\Users\bharatarun.radhakris\Bharat\Parasoft\MATF" argument. Is MATF a test configuration properties file or a directory? The -config argument should point to a SOAtest configuration properties file.

    Hi Matt, MATF is a directory. By Properties file, do you refer to the DB Connection Properties file ? If not, can you explain me more on this.
