Installation
-
Reviewing system requirements
You can now find system requirements information about hardware and software compatibility in this documentation. For more information, see System Requirements for HCL OneTest Server V10.1.1.
- Upgrading the server software
You can now upgrade to the latest version of HCL OneTest™ Server on the Red Hat OpenShift platform by using the helm upgrade command from V10.1.0. See Server software upgrade methods.

-
Test runs
- Support for running Compound Tests that contain mobile
tests
You can now configure a run for a Compound Test that contains mobile tests and then run the Compound Test on HCL OneTest™ Server. See Configuring a run of a Compound Test that contains mobile tests.
- Overriding Resource Monitoring settings in a performance
schedule
Now in the Execution dialog, the Resource Monitoring tab displays the settings related to the Resource Monitoring sources and labels as they were set in the performance schedule. This information is helpful to decide whether you want to override them with the Resource Monitoring sources that are available in your Server project, or not. See Controlling Resource Monitoring sources in a schedule.

Service virtualization: Tech Preview
- Virtualizing a service in a namespace of HCL OneTest™ Server
Previously, you specified the short name of a service that you wanted to virtualize as the host for the HTTP transport and specified the namespace in the recording settings for an Istio proxy. For example, to record the reviews service that had an FQDN of reviews.default.svc.cluster.local the host for the HTTP transport to be specified was reviews, and the namespace to be specified for the Istio Proxy was default. However, Istio routing in HCL OneTest™ Server only uses the host name and port to generate the routing rule and for stubbing. Therefore, the host name must contain the namespace so that HCL OneTest™ Server can correctly identify the service that is being stubbed.
Now, you can enable HCL OneTest™ Server to use the namespaces that you want by providing the namespaces at the time of the installation of the server software. See Prerequisites for running Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest Server.

Test authoring
-
Managing test data generated jobs and API history
HCL® OneTest™ Data now periodically deletes all the generated test data and the jobs of test data generation with API history to clear the memory. After changing the default configuration settings, you can retain the test data generated jobs and the API history of the jobs for a specific period. See Configuring job settings.
-
Generating test data for MongoDB
You can now generate the test data for the MongoDB by using HCL OneTest Data. HCL OneTest Data generates the test data, and then directly writes the generated test data in MongoDB. See Generated test data in MongoDB.
-
Generating test data for Excel
You can now generate the test data for an Excel file by using HCL OneTest Data. You can then download the test data on your computer. See Generated test data for an Excel file.
-
Generating test data by using the pairwise data generation method
You can now generate an optimum test data that covers all possible combinations of the values of the item types for each pair of item types in a schema by using the pairwise data generation method. See Setting the pairwise data property.
-
Copying artifacts of a schema to another schema
You can now copy artifacts of a schema to a new or an existing schema. See Copying artifacts of a schema to another schema.
-
Saving a copied dataset
You can now save a copy of a dataset in a different folder or make a copy with a different name, by using the Save As option. See Datasets overview.
-
Displaying icons to view who is editing datasets
In HCL OneTest™ Server, you can now see all members who are editing a particular dataset. See Editing a dataset.
