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.
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.
Generating test data by using multiple schemas
When you have multiple schemas generated by external resources in HCL® OneTest™ Data, then you can generate the test data by using multiple schemas.

- 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.
    - Generated test data in JDBC-supported databases
      When you want the generated test data in any Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) supported database, you can generate the test data by using HCL® OneTest™ Data. Subsequently, HCL OneTest Data inserts the generated test data directly in the configured JDBC-supported database.
    - Generated test data for SAP IDoc or DXOB
      When you want to generate the test data for an SAP Intermediate Document (IDoc) or Data Transfer Object (DXOB) file, you can generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data by using the structured schema of the SAP IDoc or DXOB file. You can then generate the test data by using the generated schema in HCL OneTest Data.
    - Generated test data for SAP BAPI
      When you want to generate test data for SAP Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI), you can generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data based on structured schema of SAP BAPI function modules. You can then generate the test data by using the generated schema in HCL OneTest Data.
    - Generated test data in MongoDB
      When you use MongoDB as a database in your application testing environment and you want the generated test data in MongoDB, then you can generate the test data by using HCL® OneTest™ Data. Subsequently, HCL OneTest Data inserts the generated test data directly in MongoDB.
    - Generated test data for an Excel file
      When you use Microsoft Excel as a database in your application testing environment and you want to use the structure of an Excel file to generate test data, then you can generate the test data for the selected Excel file by using HCL® OneTest™ Data.
    - Generating test data
      When you have a defined and structured schema for the entire data, you can generate test data to perform application testing.
    - Generating test data by using multiple schemas
      When you have multiple schemas generated by external resources in HCL® OneTest™ Data, then you can generate the test data by using multiple schemas.
      - Selecting multiple schemas
        After you define the properties of schemas, you must select schemas and view the relationships among them to generate the test data for multiple schemas simultaneously.
      - Defining properties of schemas
        After you generate the schema from the configured database in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you must define the required properties for all schemas.
      - Generating test data for selected schemas
        After you select multiple schemas on the Schema Integrity page, you can generate the test data of all the selected schemas simultaneously.
  - 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.

Generating test data by using multiple schemas

When you have multiple schemas generated by external resources in HCL® OneTest™ Data, then you can generate the test data by using multiple schemas.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

Logged into Rational® Test Automation Server.
Installed any JDBC supported database, such as Oracle, MySQL, and so on.

About this task

To generate the test data for multiple schemas, you must create tables in a database that are supported by the JDBC connection. After establishing the JDBC connection between the database and HCL® OneTest™ Data, you must generate multiple schemas in HCL® OneTest™ Data. You can then select multiple schemas for which you want to generate the test data and view the structure of all the selected schemas with the representation of their relationships with each other.

The output formats that are supported in HCL® OneTest™ Data for the generation of test data for multiple schemas by using referential integrity are CSV, Excel, and Native. You can also insert the generated test data into the database by using the JDBC connection.

Procedure

You must perform the following tasks in sequence to generate the test data in HCL® OneTest™ Data for multiple schemas:

Results

The test data is generated successfully by using multiple schemas simultaneously in HCL® OneTest™ Data.
