OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering integration

Analysis integrates with OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering, enabling you to analyze run results stored in the repository.

About the integration

OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering is a cross-enterprise tool for planning and running multiple performance test projects. It enables you to remotely monitor concurrent tests across different geographic locations. For more information, see the Help Center.

The integration with Analysis enables you to analyze run results stored in the OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering repository. You connect to a project and download the run results. Then you build graphs and reports as you would with any set of run results, using all of the capabilities of Analysis.

You can also upload your result files, to give access to all OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering users.

Work with run results

The following steps describe the workflow for working with an OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering project. Analysis accesses the project by connecting to the tenant.

You can connect or disconnect from a project at any time.

To work with run results:

Select Tools > LRE Integration. The LRE Connection dialog box opens.
Open a connection to the OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering server and project. For details, see LRE Connection dialog box.
Click OK to open the Integration window, through which you can view the repository.
Expand the repository tree and perform the required operation:
- Download. You can download any type of file from the repository.
- Open in Analysis. Select a run result or Analysis session file and click Open in Analysis. Wait for Analysis to create a database. Generate graphs and reports as you would with any session.
- Upload Session. Your Analysis session (created using Open in Analysis) can be saved to the OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering repository. Wait until Analysis has completed generating the data.
  
  Select a parent level of the run, and click Upload Session. The Analysis session file is added to the project.
  
  Note: The uploaded session is considered a user file and does not overwrite the existing session.

UI Element	Description
Step 1: Connect to Server	Server URL. The URL of the server on which OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering is installed. The URL must be in the following format https://<server-url>?tenant=<your_tenant_id>. You can also enter a URL with SSO (single sign-on) arguments. SSO authentication lets you skip the next step, Authenticate User Information, and go directly to selecting a project. Note: If your server configuration prevents you from accessing the base URL, use one of the following connection strings: https://<server-url>/lre or https://<server-url>loadtest. Reconnect to server on startup. Automatically reconnect to the server every time you start OpenText Professional Performance Engineering . Connect/Disconnect button. Depending on your current connection status, the button connects to, or disconnects from, the server specified in the Server URL box.
Step 2: Authenticate User Information	If you entered a URL with SSO arguments, this section is disabled. User Name. Your OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering project user name. Password. Your project password. Authenticate on startup. Authenticates your user information automatically, the next time you open the application. This option is available only if you selected Reconnect to server on startup above. Authenticate button. Authenticates your user information against the server. After your user information is authenticated, the fields in the Authenticate user information area are displayed in read-only format. Change User button. Displayed after authentication. Use to log in to the same server using a different user name. Enter a new user name and password, and then click Authenticate again.
Step 3: Login to Project	Domain. The domain that contains the OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering project. Only those domains containing projects to which you have permission to connect to are displayed. Project. Enter the project name or select a project from the list. Only those projects that you have permission to connect to are displayed. Login to project on startup. This option is enabled only when the Authenticate on startup check box is selected. Login/Logout buttons. Use to log in to, or out of, the project.
