- Configuration of DevOps Test Integrations and APIs
  - Installed directories
    When you install HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs), the following directories are created and populated under the installation directory.
  - User file storage
    HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) 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 Test Integrations and APIs performance significantly, so it is recommended that Test Integrations and APIs 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.
  - Configuring the project results database
    Historical test data is stored in the HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) 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.
  - DevOps Test Integrations and APIs tool packages
    To enable HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) to work with certain technologies, you must configure the required libraries by using the Library Manager and also install and configure Test Integrations and APIs tool packages that are provided with HCL DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel (Test Virtualization Control Panel).
  - Working with Library Manager
    HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) 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.
  - DevOps Test Integrations and APIs and DevOps Test Hub
    You can publish test reports for tests run on HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) to HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). You can create secrets collections for your project and store them securely on Test Hub that you can retrieve the secrets from Test Hub during tests at runtime.
- Administration of DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel
  HCL DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel (Test Virtualization Control Panel) is a server-based web application providing a central repository for virtualized services. The Test Virtualization Control Panel allows you to use virtual services published with HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) to create, share, and deploy virtualized test environments in HCL DevOps Test Virtualization (Test Virtualization).
- Integrations
  HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) supports integration with various other tools for quality management, software configuration management, and deployment automation tools.

User file storage

HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) 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 Test Integrations and APIs performance significantly, so it is recommended that Test Integrations and APIs is installed on a local drive.

Test Integrations and APIs creates a .integrationtester directory in the users home directory to store project and configuration information.

Subject to licensing agreements, a single shared location can be used to allow multiple users on the same computer.

On the Windows™ platform, the default directory is C:\Documents and Settings\User ID\.integrationtester or C:\Users\User ID\.integrationtester.
On Unix-like systems, the default directory is ~/.integrationtester.

The following configuration details are stored:

Library Manager settings
Recently used project lists
Individual project details
Project workspace properties
