Interoperability

Adapters

The adapters allow communication with the system to be tested or piloted. The solution embeds several default adapters in different domains:
  • network protocol support
  • application level protocol support
  • communication with databases
  • systems interaction
  • interaction with graphic interfaces
  • telecom protocol support
Adapters have two modes of use:
  • a direct mode: communication is done directly from the test server to the system to be controlled.
  • an agent mode: the communication with the system to be controlled is done through an agent communicating with the test server.

List of adapters available by default:

Note

The solution has a REST API, it can be driven also by these tools. - Jenkins Plugin: https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/ExtensiveTesting+Plugin

HP ALM

This plugin allows you to export test results in the HP ALM tool. It can be used from an etst to export results without user intervention.

Example of use:

::
HP ALM ------> Call REST API -----> AND

^ | | v | Execution of the requested test | v + <-------- Push the result --------+

Jenkins ~~~~~~

This plugin allows to launch a build from the Extensive solution.

VSphere ~~~~~~

This plugin allows you to control a VMware virtual environment. It can be used for:
  • create virtual machines automatically
  • remove machines

ExtensiveAutomation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This plugin makes it possible to make a link between several environment (dev, integration, qualification) by allowing to run tests from one environment to another.

Jira

This plugin makes it possible to create tickets following the execution of a test in the tool Jira.

Git

This plugin allows you to recover or push files from a source repository. It can be used as a prerequisite for a test.

Agents

Agents are available from the toolbox. They are to be used together with the adapters
  • to communicate with the system to test or control when it is not accessible live by the test server (ex: a web page)
  • run a test on several different environments.

Network Protocols

socket Lets you start TCP / UDP sockets
ftp Connect to an FTP server(s)
database Queries databases (MySQL, Microsoft SQL and PostgreSQL)
ssh Connect to machines via SSH or SFTP

Systems

command Execute system commands on Windows or Linux
file Allows you to recover files on Windows or Linux systems
