Creating a scenario
You can create a scenario in HCL Quality Server to control a collection of configured stubs.
About this task
Addition of a stub to a scenario results in a copy being created, that is, the one in the scenario is independent of its source and can have different settings.
In HCL Quality Server V9.2.1 or later, the Environments Dashboard supports the creation of multiple scenarios.
Procedure
-
To create a scenario in HCL Quality Server, click
the Add Scenario button () on the Environments Dashboard.
The Add Scenario dialog box is displayed.
- In the Scenario name field, enter a unique name for the new scenario.
- Optional: You can select all the currently running stubs to be automatically added to the new scenario by selecting the check box in the Add Scenario dialog box.
-
Click SAVE SCENARIO.
Note: If you have already created a scenario with the same name in the current environment, an error message is displayed, and you must save the new scenario under a different name.
Results
The scenario that you have just created is now available for any user to start and is displayed as a row expandable to show the contained stubs.
You can identify a scenario on the Environments Dashboard from the Start Scenario icon () that is present for a scenario, while the stub can be identified from the Start stub icon () it has.
You can also add stubs to the new scenario by clicking the Select Stub icon () and selecting the listed stubs or searching for stubs using the stub filter, and then adding the stubs to the scenario.
