Differences between Siebel tests and HTTP tests

Siebel tests precisely designate datapool candidates, include an additional type of data source, and store variables in a proprietary data structure. In addition, page names are created during test generation to help find pages of interest.

The primary difference between a Siebel test and a standard HTTP test is in how dynamic data is stored and substituted during a test run:

Siebel variables are stored in a proprietary data structure called a star array. A star array stores both strings and their length in hexadecimal format (length_string) or integer format (length*string). Siebel substituters have a method for substituting data and recomputing the length. You can substitute from a value in a star array (highlight a length_string or length*string format value, right-click, and then click Substitute). You are then asked whether you want a Siebel substitution or a standard HTTP substitution. You typically select Siebel data correlation.

Siebel tests are organized inside the test editor much like standard HTTP tests, but with some differences for pages:
