Integrations in Functional Test perspective
In this section, you will learn about the supported integrations for the Functional Test perspective.
Testing with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management
HCL OneTest™ UI can be integrated with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management (formerly known as Rational Team Concert). You can manage functional test assets by using the Jazz™ source control management that the Jazz Eclipse Client provides. You must have a compatible version of IBM Engineering Workflow Management server set up to use the Jazz source control management.
Engineering Workflow Management
You can use IBM® Engineering Workflow Management as your software configuration management system to maintain functional test assets.
Sharing a project
To manage the HCL OneTest™ UI projects by using the Jazz source control provider, you must share the project and select Jazz source control as the repository provider. To perform source control operations on the HCL OneTest UI project, the project must be in the Jazz repository workspace. When the project is shared, the project is moved to the Jazz repository workspace.

  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.
- Software configuration management
  You can integrateHCL OneTest™ UI with the software configuration management systems to maintain an auditable and repeatable history of your organization's test assets.
- Integrations in UI Test perspective
  In this section, you will learn about the supported integrations for the Web UI Test perspective.
- Integrations in Functional Test perspective
  In this section, you will learn about the supported integrations for the Functional 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 functional tests from the command line. Starting with version 2.0 of the ant plugin, you can run multiple tests simultaneously.
  - Testing with Azure DevOps for functional 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.
  - Testing with Cucumber
    Starting with HCL OneTest™ UI 9.2, you can take advantage of Cucumber integration to create, annotate, and run functional test scripts that can be easily understood by all members of the team.
  - Testing with Micro Focus Application Life Cycle Management
    To obtain test result details, you can integrate and run Functional Test scripts in Micro Focus Application Lifecycle Management by using a ready-made template available in the HCL OneTest™ UI installation directory.
  - 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.
  - Testing with IBM® Engineering Test Management
    HCL OneTest™ UI can be integrated with IBM® Engineering Test Management. You can execute the functional test scripts from HCL OneTest UI.
  - Testing with IBM® Engineering Test Management in the Visual Studio IDE
    HCL OneTest™ UI in the Visual Studio environment supports integration with IBM® Engineering Test Management.
  - Testing with Jenkins
    You can use the HCL OneTest™ UI - Functional Test to run tests on a Jenkins server.
  - Testing with Maven
    Starting with v9.2, you can use the Maven plug-in to run Functional Test scripts. Apache Maven is a software build tool based on the concept of a project object model (POM). You can use the Maven plug-in that is provided to run tests as part of your Maven build.
  - Testing with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management
    HCL OneTest™ UI can be integrated with IBM® Engineering Workflow Management (formerly known as Rational Team Concert). You can manage functional test assets by using the Jazz™ source control management that the Jazz Eclipse Client provides. You must have a compatible version of IBM Engineering Workflow Management server set up to use the Jazz source control management.
    - Engineering Workflow Management
      You can use IBM® Engineering Workflow Management as your software configuration management system to maintain functional test assets.
      - Switching to Jazz source control
        You can use Jazz source control management to manage functional test assets such as test object maps and scripts to facilitate functional testing efforts. The integration is controlled by a property that is set in the ivory.properties file in the HCL OneTest™ UI installation directory. You can use one software configuration management client type only in a session.
      - Sharing a project
        To manage the HCL OneTest™ UI projects by using the Jazz source control provider, you must share the project and select Jazz source control as the repository provider. To perform source control operations on the HCL OneTest UI project, the project must be in the Jazz repository workspace. When the project is shared, the project is moved to the Jazz repository workspace.
      - Merging object maps
        You can merge two object maps by comparing your local copy with the repository copy of the file. HCL OneTest™ UI merges the two object maps automatically.
  - Testing with Tivoli Composite Application Manager
    HCL OneTest™ UI can be integrated with IBM Tivoli® Composite Application Manager. You can schedule the interval at which the application manager agent runs to track the response time and generate logs using HCL OneTest UI scripts.
  - Testing 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
    You can run functional test scripts remotely with the HCL OneTest™ UI - Functional Test plugin for UrbanCode™ Deploy.

Sharing a project

To manage the HCL OneTest™ UI projects by using the Jazz source control provider, you must share the project and select Jazz source control as the repository provider. To perform source control operations on the HCL OneTest™ UI project, the project must be in the Jazz repository workspace. When the project is shared, the project is moved to the Jazz repository workspace.

Procedure

Right-click the HCL OneTest™ UI project, and click Team > Share project.
Select Jazz Source Control on the Share project page, and click Next.
Specify the repository workspace component to which to move this project.
1. Choose Select a component in an existing repository workspace if you have an existing repository workspace.
  - To place the project in an existing component, expand the workspace, and select the component.
  - To place the project in a new component in an existing repository workspace, select the workspace, click New Component, enter a name for the new component, click OK, and select the new component in the list.
2. Choose Create a new repository workspace named if you have not created a repository workspace or if you want to create a new one, type a name for the workspace, and click Next. Select Share with a component from an existing stream, expand the stream, and select a component.
Note: If the IBM® Engineering Workflow Management server is renamed, make sure that you update the hosts file with the new server name. You must also update the repository connection with the new server name so that you can continue performing source control operations on the functional test project. If you are using a version of the IBM® Engineering Workflow Management client that is older than 4.0, restart the client after you update the new server name in the hosts file and the repository connection.
Click Next.
Click Finish. The selected project is moved to the repository workspace.
The project is added to a component in a repository workspace. You can perform source control operations on the project. For more information on Jazz source control, see the IBM® Engineering Workflow Management information center.
