Release Notes for HCL OneTest™ Server

Red Hat OpenShift 4.2+

Ubuntu (using MicroK8s)

You can now select an agent added to your project on Rational® Test Automation Server to override the agent configured in the AFT XML file in the test asset.

You can now select either the current or previous versions of the test resources that you want to run while you are configuring the test run.

You can now reset the settings you configured for a test run when you are either initiating or repeating the test run. For more information, see Resetting the configuration settings for a test run.

You can now, run an HTML test as a compound test on Rational® Test Automation Server and choose to override the configured browser while configuring the test. For more information, see Configuring a run for Compound Tests that contains traditional HTML tests.

Now, test logs are delivered in a Jaeger format by default for executed compound tests and schedules. You can still set a Program Argument to re-enable the traditional test log format when you run the tests. For more information, see Test results and reports overview.

From the Results view, you can re-execute a test with the same parameters as the ones that you previously set for the previous test run. You can also re-execute multiple tests at a time with the same parameters as the initial ones. For more information, see Re-executing tests from results.

Now you can use label matching to control what Resource Monitoring sources are collected during the execution of a Performance schedule. For more information, see Controlling Resource Monitoring sources in a schedule.

A Unified Report is generated as a result of a functional test execution. For more information, see Test results and reports overview.

Now the Resource Monitoring service can query metrics from a target monitored by a running Prometheus server with default or customized queries. For more information, see Monitoring metrics collected by a Prometheus server.

The Resource Monitoring service can scrap metrics exposed by an OpenMetrics exporter through metric counters. For more information, see Monitoring metrics exposed by an OpenMetrics exporter.

In earlier versions, branch selection was configured on the Repositories page and applied globally to all users. Now, each user is presented with a Branch field that lists all the branches of the repositories added to your project. The list is available in the Execution, Datasets and Overview pages Rational® Test Automation Server. For more information, see Test resource access by using the global branch.

Members with the Tester role assigned in a project, can now create secrets collections. For more information, see Protecting API test assets by using secrets.

You can now add a repository with multiple folders to a single project. With this improvement, each project is now restricted to a single copy of a given repository.

You can now integrate Rational® Test Automation Server with Azure DevOps by using the IBM® Rational® Test Workbench extension to run tests as tasks in Azure DevOps pipelines. For more information, see Integration with Azure DevOps.

You can now integrate Rational® Test Automation Server with UrbanCode Deploy (UCD) by using the Rational® Test Automation Server UCD plugin to run tests on the UCD server. For more information, see Integration with UrbanCode Deploy.

You can now run stubs that you create in Rational® Integration Tester, from the Execution page on Rational® Test Automation Server. You can run IBM® WebSphere® MQ stubs and HTTP stubs on Rational® Test Automation Server. For more information, see Management of virtualized services.

After you run stubs on Rational® Test Automation Server, you can view the stub usage statistics from the Stub Usage page. For more information, see Viewing stub usage statistics.

You can view the details of the intercepts, proxies, or stubs with routing rules defined that are connected to Rational® Test Automation Server, from the Routing Rules page. For more information, see Viewing routing rules.

Excel Data Sources defined in Rational® Integration Tester projects can now be used as Datasets in your Rational® Test Automation Server projects. Note that Excel Data Sources that define a specific worksheet to use are ignored.

HCL OneTest Data is a test data generation tool. You can use HCL OneTest Data to generate the sample test data to perform tests. This tool is now available as a component of HCL OneTest Server. For more information about the tool, see HCL OneTest Data overview.

Now, you can create, edit, or delete a dataset in Rational® Test Automation Server. You can also publish the created dataset to Git repository so that other members of the project can use your dataset in their test asset run. For more information, see Datasets overview.
