Siebel support

HCL OneTest UI contains extended functional testing support for Siebel applications.

HCL OneTest UI supports the following versions of Siebel:
  • Siebel 7.7
  • Siebel 7.8
  • Siebel 8.0
  • Siebel 8.1
  • Siebel 8.2.2

The Siebel add-on for HCL OneTest UI allows you to capture and play back Graphical User Interface level interactions using Siebel object models and events. You can perform property and data verification points on Siebel custom components.

Testing high-interactive Siebel applications

Prerequisites: :
  • To test high-interactive Siebel applications, you must obtain the Siebel Test Automation Framework from Oracle.
  • Enable the Siebel Test Automation Framework.

Setting the registry key

  1. You must set the registry key for HCL OneTest UI to record Siebel HI controls using the user interface name. By default, HCL OneTest UI records using the repository name.
  2. In the registry, ensure that you create a new dWord named UINameInScript, and set the value to 1 in .

Starting Siebel Test Automation framework (STA)

While invoking the Siebel application add SWECmd=AutoOn to URL http://hostname/callcenter/start.swe?. For example, http://hostname/callcenter/start.swe?SWECmd=AutoOn. This automatically starts the Siebel Test Automation framework.

Configuring CAS timeout

Client Automation Server (CAS) provides a mechanism to configure timeout on calls which can result in the system hanging. By default, this timeout is set to 1 second, but you can configure this using the ivory.properties file by setting the rational.test.ft.siebel.cas_submit_timeout to the desired value.
