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.
- System modeling
  You can use the system model feature on HCL OneTest™ Server to create a model that simulates an application or system under test. You can define components to represent the actual components in the system under test, define their relationships and then view the components in a system under test as a diagrammatic representation.
- Prerequisites to running tests
  Before you can run a test asset in a project on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must read the information about the different tests assets. You can add a remote static agent, Docker host, or Kubernetes cluster to the project and then select it as an alternate location to run the test assets.
- Management of agents
  You can find information about managing performance agents or API agents that you install on remote computers and then configure the remote agents to register with HCL OneTest™ Server. After the agents are registered, you can add them to your projects and then select them as locations to run tests or virtual services.
- Management of Docker hosts
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on remote Docker hosts. After you set up a remote Docker host, you can register the Docker host with HCL OneTest™ Server. You must then add the registered remote Docker host to your project before you can run tests on the remote Docker host location.
- Management of remote Kubernetes clusters
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on remote Kubernetes clusters. After you set up a remote Kubernetes cluster, you can register the external cluster with a team space on HCL OneTest™ Server. You must then add the remote cluster to a project before you run test assets or resources on the remote Kubernetes cluster.
- Management of mobile device cloud credentials
  You can find information about managing the credentials that are required to connect to mobile device clouds from HCL OneTest™ Server.
- Test run configurations
  You can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server after you add the test resources to your project in your team space.
- Configuration of test runs in a GitHub Actions Workflow
  You can configure test runs of test resources that are in a project repository of HCL OneTest™ Server in a GitHub Actions Workflow. You can choose to run test resources that are in your server project in the GitHub Workflow when you do not want to run the test resources without opening the HCL OneTest Server project.
- Configuration of a scan of an application code
  You can use HCL OneTest™ Server to scan your application code for security vulnerabilities similar to using the HCL AppScan CodeSweep plugin to scan code in Visual Studio.
- Management of running tests
  Find information about the tasks that you can perform on a test that you configured for a run either while it runs or after it completes the run.
- Management of virtualized services
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on and manage the virtualized services that run on HCL OneTest™ Server. You can start or stop the virtual services that are available to HCL OneTest Server. You can view the routing rules and usage statistics of virtualized services, agents, or intercepts that are connected to HCL OneTest Server.
- Test results
  After the tests, Suites, or schedules are run and completed, you can view the results and open the reports in HCL OneTest™ Server to analyze the verdict, the performance, and statistics. You can also re-execute tests and schedules from the Result page with the same commit id.
- Machine learning capabilities in HCL OneTest™ Server
  HCL OneTest™ Server uses Machine learning (ML) algorithms to analyze test results that match certain requirements and criteria, and then presents the findings as insights and recommendations after the tests are run. You can use the insights and recommendations to interpret the test results and identify the problem areas in the system under test.
- Resource monitoring
  When you apply load to a system under test, the amount of resources consumed by your system is increasing. If the capacity of the resources does not match the load, you can see performance issues in the results. Resource monitoring in HCL OneTest™ Server helps you monitoring the resources of a system and establish the performance metrics and usage data of the system. Thus, you can observe the health of these resources while a schedule is running.
- Configuration of a change management system
  When you use any application to create and track defects (bugs), issues, or other work items, you can configure the application as a change management system on HCL OneTest™ Server. You can then create defects (bugs), issues, or other work items without the need to open your application.
  - Configuration of Atlassian Jira as a change management system
    You can use Atlassian Jira as a change management system in HCL OneTest™ Server to create issues in the Jira project for the tests that ran in HCL OneTest Server.

Adding a Jira Software server URL

You must first add the URL of the server on which you have installed Jira Software on the Integration page of HCL OneTest™ Server. You must copy the API keys that are generated by HCL OneTest™ Server to be used to authenticate HCL OneTest™ Server as the application to connect in Jira.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

Read about the prerequisite tasks in Prerequisites.
Verified that you can access the Jira server.
Ensured that you are assigned the role of a Project Owner in the project. See Managing access to the server projects.
Created a project in your team space in HCL OneTest™ Server. See Adding a project.

Procedure

Log in to HCL OneTest™ Server.

The team space that contains your project is displayed.
Click Active projects > My projects > project_name to open the project that contains the test assets.

The Overview page of the project is displayed.
Click Manage > Integration in the navigation pane.
The Integration page is displayed.
Click the CHANGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM tab.
Click Add New, and then select the Jira Software option from the list.

The Add Jira server dialog is displayed.
Enter the URL of the Jira server in the URL of the Jira server field, and then click Add.

HCL OneTest™ Server verifies the connection with the Jira server and generates the API keys, which are displayed on the Copy the generated keys dialog.
Click the Copy icon in the Public Key field to copy the key, and then paste the copied key into a text file.
Click the Copy icon in the Consumer Key field to copy the key, and then paste the copied key into a text file.

Results

You added the URL of the Jira server and generated the public and consumer keys that you must use to configure HCL OneTest™ Server as an application in the Jira server. You can view that the URL of the Jira server is displayed on the CHANGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM tab and the status is displayed as Not configured.

What to do next

You must share the public and consumer keys with the administrator of the Jira server to set up an application link in Jira to HCL OneTest™ Server. However, if you are an administrator of the Jira server, you can set up an application link in the Jira server. See Setting up an application link in the Jira server.
