STM Online Help: xstm Online Help (graphical interface)
STM has been designed so that the support tools can be run on the local machine or on remote machines.
The computer running the user interface is the UI system, and the computer being tested is the Unit Under Test or
UUT.
You can run the user interface and the support tools on the same machine. In this case, the UI machine and the UUT
are one and the same.
You can also run the STM user interface on one machine, and from it, run support tools on one or more remote
machines.
User Interface (UI): The computer system on which the user interface resides. On the UI machine, the user
views a system map of the UUT and selects STM commands.
Unit Under Test (UUT): The computer system which is being tested by the tools running under the UI. The
UUT may be the same machine which is running the UI, or a different machine.
