Welcome
Test Author Guide
This guide describes how to create and edit test assets in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), and then publish test assets to the remote Git repository that you have configured in your project. This guide is intended for testers and test managers.
Data management
Effective data management is at the core of robust application testing. In HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can manage test data by using the Data tab, which provides a centralized workspace for handling various types of data. Whether you work with fabricated data, retrieve information from databases, or define structured schemas, this interface supports both creating new data and reusing existing assets across your testing requirements.
Management of datasets
You can find information about creating datasets in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), applying a dataset security group, editing datasets, and managing datasets that are in your project repository.
Managing an encrypted dataset
You can use encrypted datasets to limit access to confidential information such as account number or passwords. You can arrange data by an appropriate category so that project members can use datasets more effectively in certain tests and protect them.
Moving an encrypted dataset to another security group
When you add many encrypted datasets to the same security group, you can move some of them to another security group or when you want to delete a security group but you want to retain the encrypted datasets associated with it, you can move them to different security group before deleting the security group.

- Edit branch overview
  When you want to create or modify a test resource in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must use an Edit branch. An Edit branch is a temporary branch created from the selected branch in the repository configured within the project, where you can save the created or edited resource.
- Test Editor overview
  You can use the Test Editor tab to create and manage test assets such as applications, Web UI tests, test suites, and environments in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub).
- Application management
  When you want to create and manage Web UI tests in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must first create an application within the project.
- Web UI test management
  You can test your web applications by recording Web UI tests in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). Test Hub supports industry-standard browsers such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox to record and play back Web UI tests. After the playback, you can evaluate the test results.
- Test suite management
  A suite is a collection of the tests and other suites. You can combine the multiple tests and suites into a single workflow and organize them into a suite.
- Test variables
  A test variable is a user-defined, name-value pair that stores and refers to information throughout a test. You can assign the value of a variable to a test element or assign the value of a UI object property to a test variable.
- Test environments
  You can define custom environments to manage sets of variables such as application URLs and user credentials, and to configure profile overrides. When you run a test, the variables and override rules defined in the environment dynamically replace the values within your test script. You can easily change testing targets without modifying your test script by using environments because the environment-level configurations take precedence over the default values defined in the script.
- Catalog management
  You can use the data catalog in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) to browse and manage data generators used in test data creation. The catalog section provides access to built-in generators, allows you to create custom generators tailored to specific needs, and group them using custom categories.

      When you created a Data definition in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) to fabricate test data, you can create a dataset by using the Data definition.
    - Creating a dataset by using a database query
      When you use variable data that is contained in a database, you can create a database query to import the required data from a database and use the data that is present in the database query to create a dataset in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub).
    - Editing a dataset
      You can add, modify, remove, import, or export data from a dataset.
    - Dataset encryption
      Encrypted datasets are useful when you want to run tests that contain confidential information such as a set of passwords or account numbers.

Moving an encrypted dataset to another security group

When you add many encrypted datasets to the same security group, you can move some of them to another security group or when you want to delete a security group but you want to retain the encrypted datasets associated with it, you can move them to different security group before deleting the security group.

Before you begin

You must have completed the following tasks:

Ensured that you are assigned a role as a Viewer, Tester, or Project Owner in the project.
Created at least one dataset and encrypted the dataset with an encryption key. See Dataset encryption
Created at least two security groups. See Creating a security group.

Procedure

Log in to Test Hub.
The Projects page of the initial team space is displayed.
Click My projects > project_name to open the project that contains the test assets.

The Overview page of the project is displayed.
Click Manage > Security.
The Security page is displayed.
Click a security group from the list under Security Group from which you want to move the encrypted dataset.
Click the Edit icon inline with the encrypted dataset that you want to move to another security group.
The Move dataset to a different Security Group dialog is displayed.
Click a security group from the list under Security Group to which you want to move the encrypted dataset.
Enter the encryption key that you used to encrypt the dataset in the Password field.
Click Save.

The encrypted dataset is moved to the security group that you selected and the same is displayed on the Security page.

Results

You have moved the encrypted dataset from one security group to another.
