Test Author guide
This guide, which is intended for a tester and test manager, describes how to create test assets in Rational® Test Automation Server and publish test assets to the Git repository that you have configured.
Generation of test data
To test an application, you use data that is passed to get real-time results. Since creating test data manually is time-consuming, you can use HCL® OneTest™ Data, an automated tool to generate random test data. You can generate the test data in various file formats.
Generated test data for SAP BAPI
When you want to generate test data for SAP Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI), you can generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data based on structured schema of SAP BAPI function modules. You can then generate the test data by using the generated schema in HCL OneTest Data.
Installing SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data
To generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you must install SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data.

- Datasets overview
  A dataset provides tests with variable data during a run. The test that uses a dataset at run time replaces a value in the recorded test with variable test data that is stored in the dataset.
- Generation of test data
  To test an application, you use data that is passed to get real-time results. Since creating test data manually is time-consuming, you can use HCL® OneTest™ Data, an automated tool to generate random test data. You can generate the test data in various file formats.
  - Schema fabrication
    A schema is a graphical structure to represent different types of data. You can fabricate a schema for the generation of test data.
  - Schema design overview
    When you compose a schema by using HCL® OneTest™ Data you must define the types of the schema. You can also modify the types of the schema when you import any schema from local file system or use the schema generated by using any external resource.
  - Generated test data in JDBC database
    When you want the generated test data in any Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) supported database, you can generate the test data by using HCL® OneTest™ Data. Subsequently, HCL OneTest Data inserts the generated test data directly in the configured JDBC supported database.
  - Generating test data
    When you have a defined and structured schema for the entire data, you can generate test data to perform application testing.
  - Generated test data for SAP BAPI
    When you want to generate test data for SAP Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI), you can generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data based on structured schema of SAP BAPI function modules. You can then generate the test data by using the generated schema in HCL OneTest Data.
    - Installing SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data
      To generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you must install SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data.
    - Establishing an SAP BAPI connection with HCL OneTest Data
      When you want to generate a schema for SAP BAPI, you must establish a connection between HCL® OneTest™ Data and SAP BAPI.
    - Generating a schema in HCL OneTest Data
      After you establish the connection between HCL® OneTest™ Data and an SAP BAPI, you can generate a schema in HCL OneTest Data.
  - Generated test data for SAP IDoc or DXOB
    When you want to generate the test data for an SAP Intermediate Document (IDoc) or Data Transfer Object (DXOB) file, you can generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data by using the structured schema of the SAP IDoc or DXOB file. You can then generate the test data by using the generated schema in HCL OneTest Data.
  - Status of generated test data
    You can view the status of all the test data generated jobs performed in your project, on the Jobs page.

Installing SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data

To generate a schema in HCL® OneTest™ Data, you must install SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data.

Procedure

Download the SAP connector files libsapjco3.so and sapjco3.jar to your local file system.
Copy the connector files from your local file system to the HIP Server pod by using the following commands from the command prompt:

kubectl cp /source path/libsapjco3.so rockstar-hip-server-0:/opt/hcl/hip/libs/libsapjco3
kubectl cp /source path/sapjco3.jar rockstar-hip-server-0:/opt/hcl/hip/libs/sapjco3.jar
Note: When you install or restore HCL OneTest Data, you must copy the connector files again.

Results

You have successfully installed the SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data.

What to do next

After you install the SAP connector files in HCL OneTest Data, you must establish the connection between HCL OneTest Data and the SAP BAPI connector. See Establishing an SAP BAPI connection with HCL OneTest Data.
