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.
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.
Establishing an SAP BAPI connection with HCL OneTest Data
When you want to generate a schema for SAP BAPI, you must establish a connection between HCL OneTest™ Data and SAP BAPI.

- 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.
  - 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.
    - Installing SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data
      To generate a schema in HCL OneTest™ Data, you must install SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data.
    - Establishing an SAP BAPI connection with HCL OneTest Data
      When you want to generate a schema for SAP BAPI, you must establish a connection between HCL OneTest™ Data and SAP BAPI.
    - Generating a schema in HCL OneTest Data
      After you establish the connection between HCL OneTest™ Data and an SAP BAPI, you can generate a 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.
Troubleshooting HCL OneTest™ Server
While working with HCL OneTest™ Server, you might encounter some problems that you can easily troubleshoot.

Establishing an SAP BAPI connection with HCL OneTest Data

When you want to generate a schema for SAP BAPI, you must establish a connection between HCL OneTest™ Data and SAP BAPI.

Before you begin

You must have installed the SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data. See Installing SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data

Procedure

Select your project in HCL OneTest™ Server and navigate to the Data Fabrication page.
Click Connections.
Click New to create a new connection type.

The New Connection dialog box is displayed.
Select SAP BAPI from the Type drop-down list, and then click Next.
Set the following properties under Connection Properties:
- Enter the SAP System host name in the Host ID field.
- Enter Client Number and System ID of the SAP System.
- Provide the SAP System credentials in the User and Password fields for authentication.
Click Test to verify whether the connection is established successfully.
Note: Your connection might fail to establish because of any one of the following reasons:
- Trouble at the SAP server port.
- Firewall blockage between HCL OneTest Server and the SAP server.
- Unsuccessful copying of the connector files.
Click Next, and then provide a name for the SAP BAPI connection that you established.
Click OK.

You can view the name of the SAP BAPI connection under the Connections tab.

Results

You have successfully established the connection between HCL OneTest™ Data and SAP BAPI.

What to do next

You must generate a schema in HCL OneTest Data by using the SAP BAPI. See Generating a schema in HCL OneTest Data.
