Getting Started
This getting started guide is for both administrators and test authors. It provides a linear workflow to get you up and running quickly, with links to more detailed documentation.
Before you begin (administrators only)
Prerequisites checklist:
- System requirements
- Deployment
- After signing in with the default administrator (see First login), upload the initial configuration files.
- Then modify the default administrator account or create a dedicated admin account and remove the default one. See Administration for more information.
- If you use Keycloak SSO instead of local accounts, skip signing in with and replacing the default admin account; configuration files must still be uploaded. See Keycloak.
First login
- Open the Control Panel URL
- Sign in (local or SSO) → Login
- You arrive at the landing page
Choose your Avaloq instance
- Use Instance Selection (top right) to pick the environment under test
- The instances in the dropdown come from
ast.properties - Scheduling, landing-page stats, and Executions are scoped to the selected instance
Your first test run
- Open Tests → Test case repository
- Create or open a test case (Create New or tree context menu)
- Attach test data (optional Excel upload in right panel)
- Run the test
- Trial Run — quick run of the open test case from the editor
- Schedule — run now or later (also from test sets)
- Check the result
- Last run status on the test case → Reports
- Or Executions tab for all runs → Executions
- Group tests (optional) — create a Test set, then Execute now or Schedule
