- Testing with HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE
  Read these topics to learn how to use the product.
  - Getting started with HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE
    HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE is designed to integrate into your existing Eclipse-based tool chain. Use this section as a guide to a typical workflow for testing and evaluating your C source code in the Eclipse CDT environment.
  - Importing C projects
    You can either create a new C project with the Eclipse CDT tools or you can import your existing C source files or Eclipse projects into your HCL OneTest™ Embedded workspace.
  - Importing HCL OneTest™ Embedded examples
    HCL OneTest™ Embedded is provided with several sample projects to help you get started.
  - Analyzing source code
  - Coupling Analysis overview
    Coupling Analysis consists of Control Coupling and Data Coupling.
  - Application Profiling
    Application Profiling is gathering the main features that provide profiling information at the application level: the Worst Stack Size feature and the Worst performance (coming soon) feature.
  - Testing software components
  - Application monitoring
    With HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE you can monitor the global variables of cyclic executive applications.
    - Prerequisites to monitoring applications
      Before you can monitor a cyclic executive application, you must import your project to HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE, configure HCL OneTest Embedded for Eclipse IDE and your application, and build your project.
      - Importing a monitoring project example
        A sample project is provided with HCL OneTest™ Embedded to help you get started with monitoring.
      - Enabling monitoring in your application
        You must enter a dedicated pragma command in a function of your application that is cyclically called to enable the monitoring requests between HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE and the target application.
      - Configuring the build and monitoring settings
        To monitor your cyclic executive application from HCL OneTest™ Embedded, you must enable the compilation and monitoring build settings and configure some parameters related to the communication and libraries that are used to monitor your application.
      - Building a project for monitoring
        After you configure HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE and your application, you must build your project to instrument the source code of the application with the new configuration settings.
    - Monitoring a cyclic executive application
      With HCL OneTest™ Embedded for Eclipse IDE, you can monitor a cyclic executive application that is running on a target computer and connected to HCL OneTest Embedded for Eclipse IDE.
- Testing with Studio
