Enabling server extensions and features

If you find that the server extension or test authoring feature is disabled and you want to run the tests supported by the server extension or you want to edit test assets, then you must enable them.

About this task

You must substitute {my-ots} with the release name that you provided during the installation of the server software in the following procedure.

Procedure

Log in to the Ubuntu server using an SSH session.

Run the following command to enable the test authoring feature:

helm upgrade {my-ots} -n test-system ./hcl-onetest-server \
--reuse-values \
--set global.hclOneTestAuthorEnabled=true

Run the following command to enable all the extensions:

helm upgrade {my-ots} -n test-system ./hcl-onetest-server \
--reuse-values \
--set global.hclOneTestPostmanEnabled=true \
--set global.hclOneTestJMeterEnabled=true \
--set global.hclOneTestJUnitEnabled=true

If you want to enable any specific extension, then you can set the respective helm parameter value to true. For example, to enable the Postman extension alone, then you can run the following command:

helm upgrade {my-ots} -n test-system ./hcl-onetest-server \
--reuse-values \
--set global.hclOneTestPostmanEnabled=true

Run the following command to verify that specific or all the extensions are enabled:
```
kubectl get pods -n test-system
```
The status of the specific extension or all the extensions in the pod is displayed as Running.

Results

You have enabled the test authoring feature or required server extensions on HCL OneTest™ Server.
