Run GUI tests from Business Process Monitor

Relevant for: GUI tests only

Consider the following guidelines when running tests from Business Process Monitor:

• To run a test in Business Process Monitor, UFT One must be installed and closed on the Business Process Monitor computer.

  Note: UFT One must be installed before Business Process Monitor.

• Before you try to run a test in Business Process Monitor, check which versions of UFT One are supported by your version of Business Process Monitor. For details, see the Business Process Monitor documentation.

• Business Process Monitor can only run UFT One tests that contain transactions.

• Business Process Monitor can run only one test at a time. Make sure that the previous UFT One run session is finished before starting to run another test.

• Transaction breakdown is not supported for tests created with UFT One.

• Tests must be zipped before uploading them to Application Performance Management Admin.

  If you make changes to your local copy of a test after uploading it to Application Performance Management, upload the zipped test again to enable Business Process Monitor to run the test with your changes.

• To run UFT One tests on a computer that is logged off, locked, or disconnected, set the Enable testing on locked, logged off, or disconnected remote computers option in UFT One Tools > Options > General > Run Sessions.

• When running tests from Business Process Monitor, start Business Process Monitor by running the Business process monitor service from the Windows Services window.

• To edit or record tests in UFT One, you must install a UFT One license.

• You cannot use the ResultDir environment variable when running a test in Business Process Monitor.
