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.
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.
Generating DDL statements for schemas
When you want to know the Structured Query Language (SQL) statements to create a table from non-JDBC schemas that you created in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you can generate the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for those selected schemas.

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.
- Edit branch overview
  When you want to create or modify any test assets in HCL OneTest™ Server, you must use an Edit branch.
- 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.
    - Generated test data in JDBC-supported databases
      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.
    - 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.
    - 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 in MongoDB
      When you use MongoDB as a database in your application testing environment and you want the generated test data in MongoDB, then you can generate the test data by using HCL® OneTest™ Data. Subsequently, HCL OneTest Data inserts the generated test data directly in MongoDB.
    - Generated test data for an Excel file
      When you use Microsoft Excel as a database in your application testing environment and you want to use the structure of an Excel file to generate test data, then you can generate the test data for the selected Excel file by using HCL® OneTest™ Data.
    - Generating test data
      When you have a defined and structured schema for the entire data, you can generate test data to perform application testing.
    - Generating the test data by using multiple schemas
      You can generate the test data either by using multiple JDBC-supported or non-JDBC schemas.
    - Generating DDL statements for schemas
      When you want to know the Structured Query Language (SQL) statements to create a table from non-JDBC schemas that you created in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you can generate the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for those selected schemas.
      - Importing schemas into the Schema Canvas page
        When you want to generate the test data or the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements by using single or multiple schemas, you must import schemas into the Schema Canvas page. You can import multiple schemas simultaneously.
      - Selecting schemas
        After you import schemas into Schema Canvas, you must select schemas to view the relationships among them, generate the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements, or generate the test data for multiple schemas simultaneously.
      - Generating DDL statements
        After you select non-JDBC schemas on the Schema Canvas page, you can generate the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for all the selected 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.
Test Execution Specialist Guide
This guide describes tasks that you must complete before you can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server. You can find information about configuring runs for the different test types that are supported. You can also find information about other tasks that you can perform on the Resource Monitoring Service, Virtualization, and Integrations with third-party applications. This guide is intended for testers or test execution specialists.

Generating DDL statements for schemas

When you want to know the Structured Query Language (SQL) statements to create a table from non-JDBC schemas that you created in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you can generate the Data Definition Language (DDL) statements for those selected schemas.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

Logged into HCL OneTest™ Server.
Created a project.
Created schemas in HCL® OneTest™ Data. See Schema fabrication.

About this task

You can generate the SQL file with DDL statements to non-JDBC schemas only. You can also generate the DDL statements for multiple schemas simultaneously. To generate the DDL statements for any schema, you must create a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data, define the properties of the schema, and then import all the non-JDBC schemas for which you want to generate the DDL statements on the Schema Canvas page. After you import the schemas into the Schema Canvas page, you must select the schemas, and then generate the DDL statements.

You can find the generated SQL file with DDL statements for the selected schemas on the Jobs page.

Notes:

You cannot generate the DDL statements for schemas with nested groups.
The DDL statements for all the selected schemas that are available on the Schema Canvas page are generated in a single SQL file.

Procedure

Results

You have generated the DDL statements for the selected non-JDBC schemas.

What to do next

You can download the generated DDL statements for each schema from the Jobs page. See Status of generated test data.
