Administrator Guide
This guide describes how to install HCL OneTest™ UI software. After you install the software, you can perform administration tasks such as license configuration and integration with other products. This guide is intended for administrators.
- Installation
  You can find information about the installation of HCL OneTest™ UI.
- License management
  Licensing for HCL OneTest™ UI is administered through HCL Software License & Download portal. This portal is a FlexNet-based web application that helps to manage software entitlements and licenses.
- Starting HCL OneTest™ UI from the command line
  You can start HCL OneTest™ UI from the desktop environment or a command-line interface.
- Integrations in UI Test perspective
  In this section, you will learn about the supported integrations for the Web UI Test perspective.
  - Integration plugin compatibility matrix
    You can find information about the versions of the integration plugins that are required to integrate Jenkins, Ant, HCL® Launch, and UrbanCode™ Deploy with HCL OneTest™ UI.
  - Testing with Ant
    You can use Ant to run compound tests and Web UI tests from the command-line interface.
  - Integration with Azure DevOps for UI tests
    When you use Azure DevOps for continuous integration and continuous deployment of your application, you can create tests for your application in HCL OneTest™ UI and run those tests in Azure DevOps pipelines. You can integrate Azure DevOps with HCL OneTest UI by using the HCL OneTest Studio extension that is available in the Visual Studio Marketplace portal.
  - EGit integration
    You can store your test assets in the remote Git repository and use EGit for version control operations. EGit is an Eclipse plugin for the Git version control system.
  - Configuration of test runs as a GitHub Actions Workflow
    You can configure test runs of test resources that are in a project repository of HCL OneTest™ UI in a GitHub Actions Workflow. You can choose to run test resources that are in the project in the GitHub Workflow when you want to run the test resources without opening the HCL OneTest UI.
  - Integration with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management
    You can manage test assets with Jazz™ source control management by integrating the test workbench with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management (formerly known as Rational® Team Concert™) Eclipse client.
  - Integration with Engineering Test Management
    You can integrate IBM® Engineering Test Management (formerly known as IBM Rational® Quality Manager) with HCL OneTest™ UI to initiate test runs from Engineering Test Management.
  - Integration with Jenkins
    You can use the HCL OneTest™ UI - UI Test Jenkins plugin to run tests on a Jenkins server.
  - Testing with Maven
    Starting from 9.2.0, you can use the Maven plug-in that is provided with the testing product to run tests as part of your Maven build. Apache Maven is a software build tool based on the concept of a project object model (POM).
  - Integration with Micro Focus ALM
    You can integrate HCL OneTest™ UI with Micro Focus Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) to run test assets from Micro Focus ALM.
  - Integration with HCL OneTest™ API
    You can use HCL OneTest™ API extension to run API tests from HCL OneTest UI. You can either import the projects from HCL OneTest API or manage them from HCL OneTest UI by establishing the connection between the products. You can also create a compound test to run the tests by using the Agents.
    - Running HCL OneTest™ API tests
      You can use HCL OneTest™ UI Extension for HCL OneTest API to run API tests.
  - Integration with HCL® Launch
    You can integrate HCL OneTest™ UI with HCL® Launch to run tests as a Process from HCL Launch.
  - Testing with UrbanCode Deploy
    With the HCL OneTest™ UI plugin for UrbanCode™ Deploy, you can automate the execution of tests and compound tests.
- Integrations in Functional Test perspective
  In this section, you will learn about the supported integrations for the Functional Test perspective.

Running HCL OneTest™ API tests

You can use HCL OneTest™ UI Extension for HCL OneTest™ API to run API tests.

You also have the option to just import the projects to HCL OneTest™ UI from HCL OneTest™ API, add the tests to a compound test to run them. You can either use HCL OneTest™ Performance Agent or HCL OneTest™ API Agent to generate the load. You need a compound test that contains the HCL OneTest™ API tests.

If you update API tests in HCL OneTest™ UI and want to apply the updates back to HCL OneTest™ API, you must install HCL OneTest™ API and define the path to its installation directory to set the connection.

You can find the following use cases to work with API tests in HCL OneTest™ UI:

You have installed both the products and then you connect to the API project. Alternatively, you open the API resource directly from the Test Navigator view, and then work directly with the sources files.
HCL OneTest™ API is not installed and you import the projects in the workspace of HCL OneTest™ UI.

Note: The imported tests must be edited in HCL OneTest™ API. Similarly, the compounds tests must be edited in HCL OneTest™ UI.

Running the compound test

Click Run Compound Test.

After the run completes, the HCL OneTest™ API report displays statistics on the executed sequences and Timed Sections if some are defined in the tests.
