OpenText Application Quality Management integration
This topic describes the integration between Analysis and OpenText Application Quality Management.
Manage results
OpenText Application Quality Management provides an efficient method for storing and retrieving scenario and analysis results. You can store results in a project and organize them into unique groups.
For the integration, Analysis must be able to access a project, by connecting to the web server on which OpenText Application Quality Management is installed. You can connect to either a local or remote web server.
For more information, see the Help Center.
Connect from Analysis
To store and retrieve results, you need to connect to an OpenText Application Quality Management project. You can connect to, or disconnect from, the project at any time during the testing process.
You can connect to one version of OpenText Application Quality Management from Analysis and a different version from your browser.
Note: Before you connect through the OpenText Professional Performance Engineering interface, it is recommended that you first connect to the OpenText Application Quality Management server through your browser. This automatically downloads the client files to your computer.
To connect:
-
Select Tools > ALM Connection. The ALM Connection dialog box opens.
-
Enter the required information, as described in ALM Connection dialog box.
-
To disconnect from OpenText Application Quality Management, click Disconnect.
Note:
-
There is no explicit option in the Analysis user interface for enabling CAC mode (as in VuGen). Analysis automatically enables CAC mode if the OpenText Application Quality Management server machine supports it.
-
If you have a slow connection, this may be because the Analysis machine does not have access to the WAN, and so cannot verify the digital signature of the relevant files.
Resolution: Download and import the certificates from the GlobalSign Root Certificates site using certmgr MMC until the issue is resolved (you might not need to import all the certificates).
Work with results
The following steps describe the workflow for working with results saved in an OpenText Application Quality Management project.
To work with results:
-
Open a connection to the server and project that contains the OpenText Professional Performance Engineering results or Analysis session files. For task details, see Connect from Analysis.
-
Open an existing Analysis session file - optional.
- Select File > Open.
-
In the left pane select a script.
-
In the right pane, select the results for which the Analysis session file was created.
- Click OK.
-
Create a new Analysis session file from the raw data - optional.
This procedure describes how to create a new Analysis session file on the OpenText Application Quality Management server, from the raw results file. If an Analysis session file already exists for the raw data, you can choose to overwrite the existing file.
- Select File > New.
-
In the left pane select a script.
-
In the right pane, select the results you want to analyze.
-
Click OK.
-
Save the results file.
When you are finished analyzing your results and creating reports or graphs, save the changes. Select File > Save. The Analysis session file is saved in the OpenText Application Quality Management project.
ALM Connection dialog box
This dialog box enables you to connect to an OpenText Application Quality Management project. To access, select Tools > ALM Connection.
