Working in non-GUI mode
You can use the tools and executable files that are provided along with the product software. You can use these tools to perform different test actions in a non-GUI mode.
Running tests
Use HCL OneTest™ API to run tests with command-line and Ant APIs.
Exit codes returned by RunTests command
The RunTests command returns different exit codes depending on success or failure.

Tester Guide

- API Tester Guide
  This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for testing various domains, technologies, and applications. To enable testing, you must configure and enable the environment for testing. This guide is intended for API testers.
  - API Testing
    You can use find information about the tasks that you can perform for testing various domains, technologies, or applications.
  - Extending HCL OneTest™ API functionality by using custom functions
    You can add more calculations and operations to tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API custom function class. HCL OneTest API custom function is a Java™ class that extends the com.ghc.ghTester.expressions function.
  - Working in non-GUI mode
    You can use the tools and executable files that are provided along with the product software. You can use these tools to perform different test actions in a non-GUI mode.
    - Command-line interfaces
      HCL OneTest™ API command-line client is available in HCL OneTest API 8.0.1 or later.
    - Ant tasks
      You can use the supported Ant tasks that is supplied with HCL® Quality Server to create, update, or manage the environment, scenarios, and stubs.
    - REST services
      Representational state transfer (REST) is a simple stateless architecture that generally runs over HTTP. When used in conjunction with HCL® Quality Server, HTTP methods (such as GET and POST) are mapped to actions on domains, environments, scenarios, stubs and other resource types.
    - Running tests
      Use HCL OneTest™ API to run tests with command-line and Ant APIs.
      - Running tests by using the command line
        You can run tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API command line.
      - Running tests by using an Ant task
        You can run tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API Ant tasks.
      - Exit codes returned by RunTests command
        The RunTests command returns different exit codes depending on success or failure.
    - Managing test results
      Use HCL® Quality Server to manage test results with command-line APIs.
    - Managing domains
      You can create, list, update, and delete domains with the HCL® Quality Server REST API.
    - Managing environments
      Locking a HCL® Quality Server environment prevents other users from changing the state of that environment, for example, starting or stopping stubs.
    - Managing scenarios
      Use HCL® Quality Server to manage scenarios with command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
    - Managing stubs
      You can manage stubs by using the command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
- Tester Guide - Service Virtualization
  This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for using virtual services or stubs to simulate parts of an environment if the real services are not yet available or because they are difficult or expensive to use. This guide is intended for API Testers.
