Summary

The HCL DevOps Test Virtualization plugin imports number of calls received and virtualized results from Kairos DB as metrics into HCL DevOps Velocity Insights. Data between the HCL DevOps Test Virtualization Server and HCL DevOps Velocity is synchronized by the OneTestEvent scheduled event which runs once a day by default. A data sync can be forced by toggling disable/enable on the integration.

Compatibility

HCL DevOps Test API and Integrations version 10.1.3 or later is required.

Usage

To use the HCL DevOps Test Virtualization plug-in, the plug-in must be loaded and an instance created before you can configure the plug-in integration. You define configuration properties in the user interface or in a JSON file.

As a result, a new metric called DevOps Test Virtualization is created under the Quality category in HCL DevOps Velocity Insights and the data is be populated as metrics.
