Configure Jenkins to start UFT tests from ALM recurrently

Since HP ALM doesn't really allow you to schedule recurrent Test Sets, you can easily install and configure Jenkins to get the job done. I will put the jenkins installation in another post, some other time.

But here is how to schedule a new job:

1. New Item - Freestyle project.
2. Add build step -> Execute HP tests using HP ALM Lab Management

3. Schedule recurrently. If you click on the question mark next to the schedule text, you will see the rules.



4. Optionally you can choose post build actions, like to archive the results:


This will generate a nice test trend graph, if you're into graphs :)
