Install the Package for the Web Bundle

This topic explains how to install OpenText Functional Testing from the lighter OpenText Functional Testing installation package. Before running this process, make sure you review the instructions in Before you install.

Overview

The Package for the Web Bundle is a self-extracting installation package, which contains an MSI installation program.

Installing this version of OpenText Functional Testing includes the following steps: 

1. Extract the installation package.

2. Run the MSI installation program to install OpenText Functional Testing.

You can run these steps together automatically, or you can perform them separately.

This package includes the OpenText Functional Testing prerequisites, but does not install them automatically. If you need to install any prerequisites, run their installation programs after you extract the installation package and before you run the MSI installation.

The sections below describe running this installation using a UI wizard or a command-line interface.

For details on other OpenText Functional Testing installation packages, see Installation packages.

Run installation from a command line interface

When using a command line to run the *Setup.exe file you downloaded, you can control various aspects of the installation process:

• You can choose whether to install silently or to display a user interface.

  Stopping the process after the file extraction enables you to:

  • Install prerequisites before running the installation.

  • Specify command line options for the MSI run, instructing it to run silently, or configuring features, add-ins, and options to customize the installation.
