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.
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.
Setting restrictions
When you define any item type for a schema, you can specify valid values to that type. You can define validations to the types by setting the restrictions.

- 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.
    - Defining types
      For optimum test data generation, you must define entire data of schema into types. Types are the components of schemas. After you design schema in the schema designer, you must define entire data as types by using type designer.
    - Setting type properties
      After you add types to your schema, you must set type properties.
    - Designing a structural view of a schema
      To define how the item and group types are organized and are related to each other, you must design the structural view of a schema before generating the test data.
    - Setting restrictions
      When you define any item type for a schema, you can specify valid values to that type. You can define validations to the types by setting the restrictions.
    - Applying functions
      You can apply functions on the item types of a schema to define the component rules.
  - 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.
Test Execution Specialist Guide
This guide describes tasks that you must complete before you can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server. You can find information about configuring runs for the different test types that are supported. You can also find information about other tasks that you can perform on the Resource Monitoring Service, Virtualization, and Integrations with third-party applications. This guide is intended for testers or test execution specialists.

Setting restrictions

When you define any item type for a schema, you can specify valid values to that type. You can define validations to the types by setting the restrictions.

Before you begin

You must have a group type in your schema.
You must have a structured view of your schema.

About this task

You can set restrictions only for item types of your schema.

Procedure

Open the structure view of your schema.
Click the context menu for each item type and set the required restrictions.
You can set the following restriction rules:
- Optional
- Required
- Set Range
- Unlimited
Save the changes.

You can modify the properties of the selected item type by using Properties in the context menu.
For information about item restrictions, see related links at the end of this page.

What to do next

You can apply functions to define component rules to any item type. You can also generate test data without applying functions. See Generating test data.
