Flex: Licensing Test Manager

Flex Plan licensing requirements for standalone Test Manager, covering Platform and Tester - Named User licenses and how user access is granted through Orchestrator and Test Manager.

For Test Manager to work, you need the following license types:

• Platform: offers Test Manager as a service within your organization.
• Tester - Named User: allows a user to utilize Test Manager. Every individual user requires a separate license. For example, if your team has 10 users, each of them will require their own license, meaning you will need a total of 10 licenses.

Assign an Orchestrator instance to Test Manager

To start using your Test Manager, you need to install and enable the Test Automation module, as part of the Orchestrator installation process.

As part of the Test Manager installation process, you must provide an Orchestrator instance, through the Orchestrator URL that you want to connect Test Manager to. For more information about installing Test Manager, see Installation.

Prerequisites

Log in to your Orchestrator organization as an administrator.

Assign users to Test Manager

Note:

On MSI Orchestrators, Tester - Named User licenses are not displayed or individually allocated in Orchestrator. Access is granted by assigning users to groups in Orchestrator, then approving their Test Manager access request.

To assign a user to Test Manager:

1. In Orchestrator, go to Identity > Management > Users.
2. Add the user.
3. Assign the appropriate groups to the user.
4. Ask the user to log in to Test Manager.

If the user does not yet have access to Test Manager, they see a Request Access option at login. The request goes to the Test Manager Administrator for approval — by default, the organization administrator.

Result

Test Manager is enabled for the tenant and users have the licenses required to access it.
