Integrations Related to Siebel Open UI

This topic provides information about certain types of integrations in relation to Siebel Open UI.

Siebel Open UI and Oracle User Productivity Kit

Integrations for Oracle User Productivity Kit (UPK) version 11.1.0.2 support the Siebel Open UI client. If you are running Siebel Open UI applications, then you can record Oracle UPK content against Siebel Open UI and you can display this content in a context-sensitive manner, just as you could using the high interactivity client. Oracle UPK can be an alternative to iHelp in Siebel Open UI environments. For more information about supported browsers, see Resources, then Technical Specifications in the following site, and then review the target applications technical specifications.

Siebel Open UI and Oracle Policy Automation

Integrations for Oracle Policy Automation with the Siebel Mobile Web Client and Siebel Remote support Siebel Open UI. For more information about such integrations, see the topic about invoking Web services on the Siebel Mobile Web Client in Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.

Siebel Open UI and Siebel Product Configurator

The Siebel Product Configurator displays a native user interface within Quotes, Orders, Agreements, and Assets, and it is fully supported in Siebel Open UI. Siebel Open UI supports all of the documented user interface features that are found in the high interactivity client, with some exceptions.

The Siebel Product Configurator administration functionality in the Administration – Product screen, Definition view is not currently supported in Siebel Open UI. It is recommended that you use the high interactivity client to perform tasks for administration. To make changes to a model, use the high interactivity client and navigate to the appropriate administration views.

Siebel Open UI and Test Automation

Functional test automation using Siebel Test Automation (STA) that you previously used for Siebel high interactivity applications cannot be used for Siebel Open UI deployments. The following options are available for providing test automation for Siebel Open UI:

Use Oracle's Web standards-based test automation interface to build a test automation integration.

Siebel Open UI supports test automation with any test automation suite that can support automated testing using true Web standards-based applications. Although these interfaces are rudimentary, they provide many capabilities that are required for basic task automation.
Use Oracle Automation Test Suite (OATS) with the new application programming interface, Siebel Test Automation for Open UI (STAO).

For the current release and later, Siebel Test Automation for Open UI (STAO) provides a set of test automation libraries to support functional testing of Siebel Open UI applications. Siebel Test Automation for Open UI is distributed with, and requires, Oracle Automation Test Suite (OATS). Test automation scripts must be recorded using the new test automation framework.

Note:
You cannot use Siebel Test Automation for Open UI (STAO) with Siebel Test Automation (STA) or with third-party test automation solutions.
Use a solution provided by Oracle partners that is built on Oracle's public test automation interface.

For more information about the Oracle test automation options listed here, see Siebel Open UI Deployment Guide, 1499842.1 (Article ID) on My Oracle Support. For more information about the API for Siebel Test Automation for Open UI (STAO), see Configuring Siebel Open UI.
