Welcome
Test Author Guide
This guide describes how to create test assets in HCL OneTest™ Server and publish test assets to the Git repository that you have configured. This guide is intended for testers and test managers.
Generation of test data
To test an application, you use data that is passed to get real-time results. Since creating test data manually is time-consuming, you can use HCL OneTest™ Data, an automated tool to generate random test data. You can generate the test data in various file formats.
Status of generated test data
You can view the status of all the test data generated jobs performed in your project, on the Jobs page.
Usage of test data generation job
When the job to generate the test data is complete, you can download the test data generated job from the Jobs page. You can use the job details to troubleshoot the failed jobs and to regenerate the successful jobs.
Downloading test data
When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the generated test data into your local file system.

- Datasets overview
  A dataset provides tests with variable data during a run. The test that uses a dataset at run time replaces a value in the recorded test with variable test data that is stored in the dataset.
- Generation of test data
  To test an application, you use data that is passed to get real-time results. Since creating test data manually is time-consuming, you can use HCL OneTest™ Data, an automated tool to generate random test data. You can generate the test data in various file formats.
  - Schema fabrication
    A schema is a graphical structure to represent different types of data. You can fabricate a schema for the generation of test data.
  - Schema design overview
    When you compose a schema by using HCL OneTest™ Data you must define the types of the schema. You can also modify the types of the schema when you import any schema from local file system or use the schema generated by using any external resource.
  - Test data generation from structured schemas
    When you want to test your application by using randomly generated test data, then you must generate the test data from the structured schemas.
  - Status of generated test data
    You can view the status of all the test data generated jobs performed in your project, on the Jobs page.
    - Usage of test data generation job
      When the job to generate the test data is complete, you can download the test data generated job from the Jobs page. You can use the job details to troubleshoot the failed jobs and to regenerate the successful jobs.
      - Downloading test data
        When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the generated test data into your local file system.
      - Regenerating test data
        When you want to generate another set of test data by using an existing schema, then instead of defining a schema again, you can regenerate test data.
      - Configuring job settings
        HCL OneTest™ Data periodically deletes all the generated test data and the jobs of test data generation with API history to clear the memory. However, if you want to change the default number of days to retain the generated test data jobs in memory, you must configure the job settings.
    - Jobs management
      When you run a job to generate the test data, you can view the job details on the Jobs page. The Jobs page helps you to view and to manage the list of all the jobs that you execute.

Downloading test data

When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the generated test data into your local file system.

Before you begin

You must have a project.
You must have generated test data.

Procedure

Select your project in HCL OneTest™ Server and go to the Data Fabrication page.
Click Jobs.
You can view the list of test data generated jobs.
Select a job for which you want to download the generated test data.
You can select multiple jobs at a time to download the test data.

Note: You can download the test data only for the jobs that are completed successfully.
Click the Download job(s) button or icon.

Results

The generated test data is downloaded in the zip format in your local file system. When you download multiple jobs, then the zip format of the jobs are organized by time.

Note: You can also download the generated test data file from the following location of the HCL OneTest Data pod:

/opt/hcl/hip-rest/output/<accountId>/<userID>/<projectId>/<schemaId>/<genMapPath>.
