    - Extending HCL OneTest™ API functionality by using custom functions
      You can add more calculations and operations to tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API custom function class. HCL OneTest API custom function is a Java™ class that extends the com.ghc.ghTester.expressions function.
    - Working in non-GUI mode
      Many test actions can be completed in non-GUI mode by using the command line, Ant, or REST interfaces.
      - Command-line interfaces
        HCL OneTest™ API command-line client is available in HCL OneTest API 8.0.1 or later.
      - Ant tasks
        Support for the environment, scenario and stub Ant tasks is supplied with HCL Quality Server.
      - REST services
        Representational state transfer (REST) is a simple stateless architecture that generally runs over HTTP. When used in conjunction with HCL Quality Server, HTTP methods (such as GET and POST) are mapped to actions on domains, environments, scenarios, stubs and other resource types.
      - Running tests
        Use HCL OneTest™ API to run tests with command-line and Ant APIs.
        Run tests by using the command line
        You can run tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API command line.
        Run tests by using an Ant task
        You can execute tests by using the HCL OneTest™ API Ant tasks.
        Exit codes returned by RunTests command
        The RunTests command returns different exit codes depending on success or failure.
      - Managing test results
        Use HCL Quality Server to manage test results with command-line APIs.
      - Managing domains
        You can create, list, update, and delete domains with the HCL Quality Server REST API.
      - Managing environments
        Locking a HCL Quality Server environment prevents other users from changing the state of that environment, for example, starting or stopping stubs.
      - Managing scenarios
        Use HCL Quality Server to manage scenarios with command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
      - Managing stubs
        You can manage stubs by using the command-line, Ant, and REST APIs.
  - Integration Tester Guide (Service Virtualization)
    This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for using virtual services or stubs to simulate parts of an environment if the real services are not yet available or because they are difficult or expensive to use. This guide is intended for Integration Testers.
- Test Manager Guide
  This guide describes the tasks that you can perform for tracking the quality of the application. This guide is intended for Test Managers.
- Security Considerations
  You can take certain actions to ensure that your installation is secure, customize your security settings, and set up user access controls.

Running tests

Use HCL OneTest™ API to run tests with command-line and Ant APIs.

JUnit style output

JUnit style results output is available for test.

The junitDir option specifies the path to write a JUnit style report to on completion of the run. Here is an example of the contents of such a file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testsuite failures="0" name="Tests/Suite" tests="1" time="1.594">
   <testcase classname="Tests/Test" name="Test" time="1.261"/>
</testsuite>
