Testing integrations

To avoid problems with your database, you should add integration packages in a test environment before modifying your production environment.

Once you add packages to a schema, check in the schema, and apply the schema to your user database, you cannot undo the changes. When performing a test integration, replicate both production environments: the HCL Compass environment, and the environment of the application being integrated with HCL Compass. For example, in a HCL Compass and HCL VersionVault integration, you need:

  • A test HCL Compass database
  • A test HCL Compass schema
  • A test HCL VersionVault VOB
