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. You can also edit existing test assets that are in the repository added to your project. 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.
Status of generated test data
You can view the status of all the test data generated jobs and Data Definition Language (DDL) statements generated jobs performed in your project, on the Jobs page.
Usage of test data generation job
The generation of test data or Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for single or multiple schemas in HCL® OneTest™ Data is considered a job. You can view the list of all jobs on the Jobs page.
Downloading jobs
When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the test data from the job into your local file system. You can also download the Structured Query Language (SQL) file from the job that includes the generated Data Definition Language (DDL) statements of multiple non-JDBC schemas.

Administrator Guide
This guide describes how to install the HCL OneTest™ Server software.
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. You can also edit existing test assets that are in the repository added to your project. This guide is intended for testers and test managers.
- Test authoring
  You can use HCL OneTest™ Server to author tests instead of creating the tests by using the desktop products.
- 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.
  - Status of generated test data
    You can view the status of all the test data generated jobs and Data Definition Language (DDL) statements generated jobs performed in your project, on the Jobs page.
    - Usage of test data generation job
      The generation of test data or Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for single or multiple schemas in HCL® OneTest™ Data is considered a job. You can view the list of all jobs on the Jobs page.
      - Downloading jobs
        When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the test data from the job into your local file system. You can also download the Structured Query Language (SQL) file from the job that includes the generated Data Definition Language (DDL) statements of multiple non-JDBC schemas.
      - Regenerating test data
        When you want to generate another set of test data by using an existing schema, then instead of defining a schema again, you can regenerate test data from the Jobs page.
      - Configuring job settings
        HCL® OneTest™ Data periodically deletes all the generated test data and the jobs of test data generation with API history to clear the memory. However, if you want to change the default number of days to retain the generated test data jobs in memory, you must configure the job settings.
    - Jobs management
      When you run a job to generate the test data, you can view the job details on the Jobs page. The Jobs page helps you to view and to manage the list of all the jobs that you execute.
Test Execution Specialist Guide

Downloading jobs

When you want to test any application by using the generated test data or to reuse the data of any specific schema definition for some other project, you can download the test data from the job into your local file system. You can also download the Structured Query Language (SQL) file from the job that includes the generated Data Definition Language (DDL) statements of multiple non-JDBC schemas.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

Created a project.
Generated the test data. See Generating test data for selected schemas.
Generated the DDL statements. See Generating DDL statements.

Procedure

Log in to HCL OneTest™ Server and open the team space that contains your project.
Open your project.
The Overview page is displayed.
Click Author > Data Fabrication.
The Data Fabrication page is displayed.
Click Jobs.
The Jobs page is displayed. You can view the list of all the jobs that include the generated test data or DDL statements.
Notes:
- If you want to view only the jobs related to referential integrity, then select Schema canvas jobs from the menu.
- If you want to view only the jobs related to DDL statements, then select DDL job from the menu.
Select a job for which you want to download the generated test data.
Notes:
- You can select multiple jobs at a time to download the test data.
- You can download the test data only for the jobs that are completed successfully.
- The download option is disabled for the jobs that are set to insert the generated test data into the database.
- The download option is disabled for multiple DDL jobs.
Click the Download job(s) button or icon.
