What's new in 10.2.1
- Integration with IBM Engineering Test Management
You can now integrate HCL OneTest™ Server with IBM® Engineering Test Management to run the test assets in a project in your team space from Engineering Test Management. After the tests run, you can view the results on the Results page. See Integration with IBM Engineering Test Management.
- Overriding results database
When you want to override the Results Database that is configured in the API Suite project, you can now provide the URL, user name, password, and the database driver as program arguments in the Advanced settings in the Execute test asset dialog box. You can optionally use an encrypted password that is generated by using the EncryptPassword application that is in the installation directory of HCL OneTest™ API.
- Running a scan of an application code
You can use HCL OneTest™ Server to scan you application code, similar to using the AppScan CodeSweep plugin in Visual Studio. You must create a .codesweep file that contains information about the assets in the repository and the folders with the application code that must be scanned. You can optionally, specify the rules to ignore, folders with code to be excluded from the scan, or the parameters for a verdict of the scan in the file.
After you commit the assets to a remote repository, you can add the repository to your project in a team space, and then run a scan of the assets on HCL OneTest™ Server.
- Running tests on remote Kubernetes clusters
You can now run the supported test resources on remote Kubernetes clusters that you register with a team space on HCL OneTest™ Server and add the Kubernetes cluster to your project in the team space.
You can select the remote cluster as a location to run the tests when you configure a run.
You can edit the configurations of a cluster, remove a cluster from a project, or unregister the cluster from a team space.
