Welcome
Test Author guide
This guide, which is intended for a tester and test manager, describes how to create test assets in HCL OneTest™ Server and publish test assets to the Git repository that you have configured.
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 import
HCL OneTest™ Data requires a schema to generate the test data. If you have a schema in your local file system, then you can import the same schema into your project.

Release Notes
This document includes information about What’s new, installation and upgrade instructions, known issues, and contact information of HCL Customer Support.
System Requirements
Getting started guide
This guide, which is intended for new users, provides an overview and some task flows to get you started with HCL OneTest™ Server.
Administrator guide
This guide, which is intended for an administrator, describes how to install HCL OneTest™ Server software. After you install the software, you can administer the server. Administration tasks can include License configuration, User management, Security, Memory and disk usage management, Backup and restore user data.

- 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 import
      HCL OneTest™ Data requires a schema to generate the test data. If you have a schema in your local file system, then you can import the same schema into your project.
      - Importing XSD or JSON files
        When you have an XSD or a JSON format file in your local file system, you can import the same files from the local file system into your project.
    - Schema generation
      When you want to generate the test data in any external resource, you must generate the schema by using that specific resource.
    - Schema creation
      When you do not have an existing schema or you do not want to generate a schema in any database, then you can create a schema by using HCL OneTest™ Data.
    - Schema management
      In a schema you can perform certain tasks such as editing and deleting of a schema. You can also split a schema view.
  - 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.
  - Generated test data in JDBC database
    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.
  - Generating test data
    When you have a defined and structured schema for the entire data, you can generate test data to perform application testing.
  - 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 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.
  - 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, which is intended for a tester or a test execution specialist, describes tasks that you must complete before you can configure and run tests on HCL OneTest™ Server. You can find information about other tasks that you can perform on the Resource Monitoring Service, Virtualization, and Integrations with third-party applications.
Test Manager guide
This guide, which is intended for a test manager, explains how to manage and track your overall test effort.
Reference Guide
This guide describes conceptual information about data design environment components when you want to use the data fabrication feature in HCL OneTest™ Server.

Schema import

HCL OneTest™ Data requires a schema to generate the test data. If you have a schema in your local file system, then you can import the same schema into your project.

HCL OneTest Data supports the import of the schema, which is either in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) or XML Schema Definition (XSD) file format.

Note: After you import the schema, you can perform all the following tasks to the imported schema:

Defining types
Setting type properties
Setting restrictions
Applying functions
