You can use HCL OneTest™ API to test Java™ applications.
Use the generic JMS plug-in to connect HCL OneTest™ API to a wide range of EAI platforms, which includes any vendor that provides an implementation of this Java™ standard. JMS provides a way of separating the application from the transport layer of providing data. The same Java classes can be used to communicate with different JMS providers by using the JNDI information for a specific provider. The classes first use a connection factory to connect to the queue or topic, and then use populate and send or publish the messages. On the receiving side, the clients then receive or subscribe to the messages
You can import Plain Old Java™ Objects (POJOs) from JAR files into HCL OneTest™ API in order to parse and construct messages containing the serialized forms of those objects. You can construct and parse the Java objects and perform validation, but you cannot test the objects directly.

You can use HCL OneTest™ API to record the HTTP traffic on the Envoy Proxy by using the Experimental HTTP Tap Filter feature of the Envoy Proxy.
As with any other transport, the File transport includes both logical and physical configurations. Tests and stubs are associated with the logical file, which represents an abstraction of the file and is the same for all environments. The physical File Access configuration includes connection details, and you can configure a different physical File Access for each environment.

You can configure HCL OneTest™ API to synchronize IBM® WebSphere® Portal resources.
IBM® z/OS® Connect Enterprise Edition provides a framework for enabling z/OS®-based programs and data to fully participate in the new API economy for mobile and cloud applications. Use IBM® z/OS® Connect Enterprise Edition to access z/OS subsystems, such as CICS®, IMS™ and Batch, by using RESTful APIs with JSON formatted messages. You can access multiple z/OS subsystems concurrently through a common interface.
When you have applications hosted in a Kubernetes cluster that have Istio as a service-mesh, you can virtualize the services in the cluster by creating stubs in HCL OneTest™ API.
For testing with Kubernetes set up a Kubernetes cluster, and then you can create and publish stubs from HCL OneTest™ API so that stubs can be run within Kubernetes. The stubs published can be co-located with existing services running within the Kubernetes cluster.
You can import serializable .NET objects from .NET assembly files (.exe or .dll) into HCL OneTest™ API and apply them to messages in the same way as you would apply a schema. A service-based test or stub can then send and receive a message containing a serialized form of a .NET object from the assembly file. You can construct and parse the .NET objects and perform validation, but you cannot test the objects directly.
If you are using HCL OneTest™ API V9.5.0 or later, you can create MongoDB transports and run tests against them.
If you are using HCL OneTest™ API 8.6.0 or later, you can create MQ telemetry transports.
Configure and run HCL OneTest™ API with the Oracle Fusion plug-in, which provides support for synchronization with and testing of the web services and composites that are available on a configured SOA server (that is, an Oracle WebLogic server with Oracle SOA Suite 11g deployed on it).
