Integrating with DevOps Test Performance for SOA Quality

Integration with DevOps Test Performance for SOA Quality is implemented by using an adapter. The adapter is installed by default when you install DevOps Test Performance for SOA Quality. After the installation, you must configure and run the adapter.

The adapter can be run in three modes:

  1. In GUI mode, from within the test workbench itself
  2. From the command line
  3. As a Windows service

Further details can be found in the DevOps Test Performance for SOA Quality documentation. For more information about test tool adapters, including adapter version and user account requirements, see DevOps Test tools integration overview in the links that follow.

Known limitations

  • When you install DevOps Test Performance and DevOps Test Performance into the same instance of Eclipse (also called shell sharing), the adapter registers itself as a DevOps Test Performance adapter. To register as a DevOps Test Performance adapter, DevOps Test Performance must be installed as it's own software package.
  • Running tests from Engineering Test Management with encrypted data pools is not supported. When you use an encrypted data pool, the adapter service or the command-line mode does not prompt for a password. Using encrypted data pools is also discouraged in the GUI mode because this mode requires user interaction with DevOps Test Performance for a run that is initiated from the Engineering Test Management web user interface.
  • You should start only one adapter per product installation on a machine. Using multiple adapters on the same computer requires that you install each product as its own software package in it's own directory. If you are running multiple adapters on the same computer, ensure that they are using different workspaces.
