Any way to test the Datasource in Websphere Liberty as in tradtional?

I am switching from Websphere 8.5.5.0 to 8.5.5.9. I have two questions on the datasource configuratioin.

Do I have to use JAAS in liberty or the <properties.oracle user="xxx" password="yyy" URL=zzz/>is sufficient?
Is there a test datasource button in the Liberty adminCenter like it's in the traditional admin console?

You don't have to use JAAS for your datasource authentication with Liberty, but if you use userid and password properties, you should at least use the tools to encrypt them to provide a minimal level of security. Liberty Admin Center doesn't yet have a "Test Connection" button like traditional Admin Console, but you can RESTfully test a datasource using the new function described in this wasdev blog.
