Application configuration tool

How to use this dialog box?

This tool is used to add and edit application configurations. To edit the information on an existing application, click the name of the application in the Applications list. To add a new application, click the Add button. Whether editing or adding, make your changes, then click OK or Apply for the changes to be saved.

Applications list

Select the application that you want to edit or view. Its information will then appear to the right of the list. The information fields are described below. If your application is not in the list yet, click Add to find and enter it.

Detailed information for Application

Contains the following fields:

Name -- This is the logical name of your application. In a Java™ application, this will default to the main class name.

Kind -- The type of application. It will be either "Java™", "HTML," or "executable."

Path -- This is the full path to the application class file. The file path should not contain any spaces. Note that if you type an incorrect path here, the text of the path will turn red in this field to indicate the error. The path should not contain any spaces.

.class/.jar file -- The name of the application file. A .jar file should only be used if the .jar contains a proper manifest specifying the class to be run.

JRE -- This is normally left blank, because it will automatically use the default JRE you have set in the Java™ enabler. (The default is the one listed as "(default)" there.) To use a different JRE for this specific application only, type the name of it in this field, and it will override the default JRE when this application is run. Use the logical name of the JRE, which can also be found in the Java environments list in the Java enabler.

Classpath -- This is normally the same as the Path that is supplied above, or it may be blank. If you need additional classes to run this application, you can enter their paths here and they will get appended to the Path listed above.

Args -- This is blank by default. If your application requires command-line arguments, use this field to enter them. They will be passed when the application is started by HCL OneTest™ UI.

Working Dir -- By default, this is the same as Path above -- the full path to the application class file. You only change this if you use a different working directory for this application. Sometimes a single period will appear by default to indicate the default working directory.

Add button

Click Add to add and configure a new Java™, HTML, or executable/batch file application. For more information on adding applications, see Configuring Applications for Testing.

Remove button

To remove an application from the Applications list, select the application, then click Remove.

Run button

Use to run the selected application. This is useful if you want to test the application you are adding or configuring to make sure it runs correctly as you have configured it.

Font button

Click to change the default font, font style, and font size used throughout the functional test UI.

OK button

You must click OK when you are finished to save the additions or edits you made.
