- Installation of HCL OneTest™ API
  You can find information about installing HCL OneTest™ API from the HCL OneTest Studio or HCL OneTest API package.
- Installation of HCL® Quality Server
  You can find information about installing HCL® Quality Server from the HCL OneTest™ Studio, HCL OneTest Virtualization, or HCL OneTest API package.
- License management
  Licensing for your HCL software is administered through HCL® License & Delivery portal. This portal is FlexNet-based web application to manage software entitlements and licenses.
- Configuring HCL OneTest™ API
  - Installed directories
    When you install HCL OneTest™ API, the following directories are created and populated under the installation directory.
  - User file storage
    HCL OneTest™ API projects store user files, and can be created in any location to which a user has access. However, using a remote or network location can reduce HCL OneTest API performance significantly, so it is recommended that HCL OneTest API is installed on a local drive.
  - Changing the display language
    When you want to use the product in a different language other than the display language of your computer, then you can change the language of the product by using the command-line interface. You can find the information to change the language in Linux or Windows.
    - Changing the display language of the product installed on Linux
      When you want to use the product in a different language other than the display language of your computer, then you can change the language of the product by using the command-line interface in Linux.
    - Changing the display language of the product installed on Windows
      When you want to use the product in a different language other than the display language of your computer, then you can change the language of the product by using the command-line interface in Windows.
  - Configuring the project results database
    Historical test data is stored in the HCL OneTest™ API project results database. It is difficult to estimate the space that is required as the number and type of tests to be run varies. When you create the project results database, 50GB is probably a good starting point.
  - HTTP/TCP proxy setup
    The process of configuring applications to use the HTTP/TCP proxy varies according to the application.
  - Setting up the JDBC proxy
    After you install the JDBC proxy, you must deploy the proxy into the Java™ virtual machine (JVM) of the relevant applications, set up the proxy for use, and verify that it is deployed.
  - HCL OneTest™ API tool packages
    To enable HCL OneTest™ API to work with certain technologies, you must configure the required libraries by using the Library Manager and also install and configure HCL OneTest API tool packages that are provided with HCL Quality Server.
  - Working with Library Manager
    HCL OneTest™ API uses a plug-in architecture to provide support for various middleware and messaging technologies, so the list of third-party products with which it interacts can become large. You can manage this list by using Library Manager. When support for a new architecture or messaging plug-in is required, you use Library Manager to add that support.
  - Debugging failed Windows™ services
    If one of the programs fails to start as a Windows™ service, it can be difficult to determine the cause. Typically the service fails to start but gives no indication of why. The Windows Event log has nothing useful and the process might not have created its log file.
  - HCL OneTest™ API and HCL OneTest™ Server
    You can publish test reports for tests run on HCL OneTest™ API to HCL OneTest Server. You can create secrets collections for your project and store them securely on HCL OneTest Server that you can retrieve the secrets from HCL OneTest Server during tests at runtime.
- Administering HCL Quality Server
  HCL Quality Server is a server-based web application providing a central repository for virtualized services. The HCL Quality Server allows you to use virtual services published with HCL OneTest™ API to create, share, and deploy virtualized test environments in HCL OneTest Virtualization.
- Integrating
  HCL OneTest™ API supports integration with various other tools for quality management, change management, software configuration management, and deployment automation tools such as UrbanCode™ Deploy.
Tester Guide
This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for testing various domains, technologies, and applications. To enable testing, you must configure and enable the environment for testing.

Typically, a user with the Test Manager role is responsible for certain tasks that includes tracking the quality of the application. This guide lists all such topics.
Troubleshooting: HCL OneTest™ API
While working with HCL OneTest™ API, you might encounter some problems that you can easily troubleshoot.
HCL OneTest™ API reference
HCL OneTest™ API is a scripting-free environment for developing tests for service-oriented architecture (SOA) messaging and business process integration projects. Tests can be built by recording existing system behaviors or from requirements, by entering the data to send and the data that is expected in return.
Security Considerations
You can take certain actions to ensure that your installation is secure, customize your security settings, and set up user access controls.
