Tutorials for testing in the Functional Test perspective
You can use the tutorials to get started with testing in the Functional Test perspective in HCL OneTest™ UI.
Test GEF applications
The movies in this tutorial show you how to use HCL OneTest™ UI to test applications that are based on the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF). It also shows how HCL OneTest UI works with GEF objects.
Module 1: Test GEF applications
This module will give you an overview of the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) objects that are created in IBM Rational Systems Developer, which is the application under test. You will also see how to enable GEF applications and create verification points to test the GEF objects. In this module you will observe how HCL OneTest™ UI recognizes the GEF edit parts in the application under test.

  - Get started with functional testing using simplified scripts
    This tutorial introduces you to simplified test scripts and the application visuals and helps you get started with HCL OneTest™ UI for testing applications. It uses a sample Java™ application that is installed with the product for functional testing.
  - Create a functional test using Java scripts
    This HCL OneTest™ UI tutorial walks you through the major use cases for creating and playing back functional tests that use Java scripts. This comprehensive tutorial uses a sample Java™ application that is installed with the product.
  - Perform a data-driven functional test using Java scripts
    In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a data-driven functional test using the HCL OneTest™ UI data-driven test wizard.
  - Test Adobe Flex application
    This tutorial walks you through the steps to enable your Adobe Flex application, and test the enabled Flex application from a local test computer using HCL OneTest™ UI. The steps are based on the roles that Flex developers and testers perform.
  - Test GEF applications
    The movies in this tutorial show you how to use HCL OneTest™ UI to test applications that are based on the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF). It also shows how HCL OneTest UI works with GEF objects.
    - Introduction: Test GEF applications
      This tutorial is designed for HCL OneTest™ UI to test the function of Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) objects that are implemented using GEF. For this tutorial, GEF objects were created using IBM® Rational® Systems Developer Version 7.0.5 (the application under test). The HCL OneTest UI test object map lists the GEF objects in the application under test. The test object map contains recognition properties for each GEF object.
    - Module 1: Test GEF applications
      This module will give you an overview of the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) objects that are created in IBM Rational Systems Developer, which is the application under test. You will also see how to enable GEF applications and create verification points to test the GEF objects. In this module you will observe how HCL OneTest™ UI recognizes the GEF edit parts in the application under test.
      - Lesson 1: Overview of GEF objects in the application under test
        HCL OneTest™ UI can now recognize objects in the application under test that supports GEF applications. For this tutorial, we are using IBM Rational Systems Developer Version 7.0.5.3 that supports Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) as the application under test. In Rational Systems Developer, we have inserted class diagrams that represents log files using the palette. Using HCL OneTest UI, we will test the functionality of these class diagrams. In this lesson, you will have an overview of the GEF objects that are inserted in Rational Systems Developer.
      - Lesson 2: Enabling a GEF application
        Before testing GEF applications using HCL OneTest™ UI, you must enable the application under test for functional testing. In this lesson, you will see how to enable the test applications that supports Graphical Editing Framework for functional testing.
      - Lesson 3: Recording a functional test script
        In this lesson, you will see how to record a functional test script to test the functionality of the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) application. You will watch the recording behavior of HCL OneTest™ UI as data, image, and properties verification points are created on the GEF objects and displayed in the functional test script.
    - Module 2: Applying HCL OneTest™ UI capabilities to GEF objects
      In this module, you see how HCL OneTest™ UI capabilities are applied to Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) objects. HCL OneTest UI identifies GEF objects that are not visible in the work area. It also recognizes GEF palettes in the application under test. You will see how to make the functional test scripts more resilient to changes by configuring object recognition properties.
    - Summary: Test GEF applications
      This tutorial has shown you how to test applications based on the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) using HCL OneTest™ UI.
  - Extend HCL OneTest™ UI capabilities using Proxy SDK
    The movies in this tutorial show you how to extend the HCL OneTest™ UI proxies using the proxy SDK.
- Tutorials for testing in the Visual Studio IDE
  HCL OneTest™ UI tutorials contain educational materials to help you learn the technologies and concepts behind products.
