Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)

ALM is a solution that helps you manage your application lifecycle, define requirements, test your development, track defects, and analyze quality.

OpenText Functional Testing for Developers enables you to run your tests from ALM (Windows only).

Overview

The topics in this section describe how to set up OpenText Functional Testing for Developers and ALM to work together, how to create tests designed for ALM, and how to run them.

Note: This section is aimed at people with basic knowledge of creating and running tests in ALM. If you are new to ALM and would like to learn more, we recommend that you visit the ALM Help Center.

Running test locally vs. on host

When you run a test from ALM you can run it locally, on your computer, or on a host or hosts. The instructions in this section indicate when a step is relevant for both use cases or only when running tests on a host.

Note: OpenText Functional Testing for Developers does not support working with ALM Lab Management. If you want to run tests on a host machine, you enter the host's IP address when running the test.
