  - Get started with functional testing using simplified scripts
    This tutorial introduces you to simplified test scripts and the application visuals and helps you get started with HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) for testing applications. It uses a sample Java™ application that is installed with the product for functional testing.
  - Create a functional test using Java scripts
    This HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) tutorial walks you through the major use cases for creating and playing back functional tests that use Java scripts. This comprehensive tutorial uses a sample Java™ application that is installed with the product.
  - Perform a data-driven functional test using Java scripts
    In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a data-driven functional test using the HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) data-driven test wizard.
    - Introduction: Perform a data-driven functional test using Java scripts
      In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a data-driven test using a variety of realistic data to test the application with the HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) data-driver wizard.
    - Lesson 1: Create a project and record a test script
      In this lesson, you will use the Classics CD sample application to create a new project and start recording a test to verify that the sample application correctly totals the amount of music CDs purchased.
    - Lesson 2: Data-drive a test
      In this lesson, you will use the data-driver to populate a dataset with data from the sample application. A dataset is a collection of related data records. A dataset supplies data values to the variables in a test script during test script playback.
    - Lesson 3: Add descriptive headings to the data
      In this lesson, you will add descriptive headings to the dataset you created in the previous lesson. Descriptive headings make it easier to add data to the dataset.
    - Lesson 4: Create a verification point with a dataset reference
      In this lesson, you create a verification point with a dataset reference to check that the price for the CD is correct in the ClassicsCD application.
    - Lesson 5: Add data to the dataset
      In this lesson, you will add data to the dataset to test the ClassicsCD sample application by placing more orders for the CD.
    - Lesson 6: Play back the test
      In this lesson, you will play back the test you just recorded to see how easy it is to use a variety of data from a dataset to test the application.
    - Summary: Create a data-driven test
      This tutorial has shown you how to create a data-driven test.
  - Test GEF applications
    The movies in this tutorial show you how to use HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) to test applications that are based on the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF). It also shows how Test UI works with GEF objects.
  - Extend DevOps Test UI capabilities using Proxy SDK

Perform a data-driven functional test using Java scripts

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a data-driven functional test using the HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) data-driven test wizard.

Data-driven testing puts a layer of abstraction between the data and the test script, eliminating literal values in the test script. Because data is in a dataset and separated from the test script, you can:

Modify test data without affecting the test script
Add new test cases by modifying the data, not the test script
Share the test data with many test scripts

Learning objectives

After completing this tutorial, you will be able to:

Create a project and record a Java test script
Data-drive a test
Add descriptive headings to the data
Create a verification point with a dataset reference
Add data to the dataset
Play back the test

Time required

30 minutes.
