Administration of DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel

HCL DevOps Test Virtualization Control Panel (Test Virtualization Control Panel) is a server-based web application providing a central repository for virtualized services. The Test Virtualization Control Panel allows you to use virtual services published with HCL DevOps Test Integrations and APIs (Test Integrations and APIs) to create, share, and deploy virtualized test environments in HCL DevOps Test Virtualization (Test Virtualization).

Functional overview

Test Virtualization stubs designed in Test Integrations and APIs are published to the Test Virtualization Control Panel, which holds them in a repository. Test Virtualization Control Panel users can control stubs by means of web pages; and Test Virtualization Control Panel also manages the Test Virtualization environment so that, where possible, messages are routed automatically to the stubs. (For more information about stubs, refer to DevOps Test Virtualization overview.)

Test Virtualization Control Panel also enables you to schedule the execution of test suites on a single schedule basis or a recurring schedule basis.

In Test Virtualization Control Panel 9.2.1 or later, the way in which stubs are managed and controlled is significantly different from earlier versions. For more information, see Server-based stubs.
