Local Azure Resource Manager Deployment

In this topic, you will learn how to deploy Test Manager locally as an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template using the local deployment script.

Requirements

• Azure CLI installed.
• You need to be logged in and have the subscription context in Azure set up correctly.
• Download the following packages next to the local deployment script (TestManagerLocalDeploymentWrapper.ps1):
  • Deployment Script: package containing the MSDeploy package with the Deploy-TestManager.ps1 script.
  • Test Manager Provisioning Tool: package containing Test Manager CLI files stored inside the TestManagerProvisioner folder. For more information, see Test Manager Provisioning Tool.
  • Test Manager Local Deployment Script: MSDeploy package containing Test Manager Web App.
  • mainTemplate.json: the local deployment script containing an empty parameters JSON file, located in the arm folder, next to the rest of the packages.

To set up the deployment environment for Test Manager, create a folder named arm and place it next to all the artifacts downloaded under Requirements. Inside the arm folder, you need two files:

• an empty params.json file
• mainTemplate.json file

The folder location for your packages will look like in the screenshot below.

Note: If you need to deploy the entire UiPath infrastructure, you will also need the following:

• UiPath Orchestrator set up in your environment.
• Access to Orchestrator Identity Management.

Provision resources before Test Manager installation

To provision the resources for the Test Manager instance, you need to run the TestManagerLocalDeploymentWrapper.ps1 script. You can use this procedure if you don't have the Test Manager resources already provisioned.

Open Windows PowerShell and run the TestManagerLocalDeploymentWrapper.ps1 script with the -Provision flag and then supply the following parameters.

Parameter	Description
resourceGroupName	The name of the Azure Resource Group where UiPath Test Manager resources will be provisioned.
SQLServerAdminPassword	The password for the admin credentials for the Azure SQL Server.
SQLServerAdminLogin	The username for the admin credentials for the Azure SQL Server.
TMDBSize	The database size for the Azure SQL Database resource which will be created. Available options: "Small", "Medium", "Large".
TMDatabaseName	The name for the Azure SQL Database resource which will be created.
TMAppName	The name for the Azure Web App resource which will be created.
storageAccountName	The name for the Azure Storage Account resource which will be created.
SQLServerName	The name for the Azure SQL Server resource which will be created.
location	The name of the Azure Region where the resource will be created. For example, west_europe.
TMPAppServicePlan	The name of the Azure App Service Plan resource which will be created.
storageAccountType	The type of the Azure Storage Resource which will be created.
TMAppInsights	The name of the App Insights resource which will be created.

Script example

In the following example, the local deployment script is executed to provision resources to Test Manager.

1. Use the az login to log in to your Azure environment.
2. Set the Azure context to the subscription where you are about to deploy Test Manager (e.g., to set it to Dev-Test-SL-EA subscription run the following: az account set --subscription "DevTest-SL-EA".
3. Run the TestManagerLocalDeploymentWrapper.ps1 script with the -Provision flag and then supply the following parameters.

   .\TestManagerLocalDeploymentWrapper.ps1 
   -resourceGroupName "tmh-testing" 
   -SQLServerAdminPassword: "password" 
   -SQLServerAdminLogin: "sqladmin" 
   -TMDBSize: "Small" 
   -TMAppName: "tmh-test" 
   -TMDatabaseName: "tmhtestsqldb" 
   -SQLServerName: "tmhtestsql" 
   -storageAccountName: "tmhtestst" 
   -location: "northeurope" 
   -TMAppServicePlan: "tmhtestasp" 
   -storageAccountType: "Standard_LRS" 
   -TMAppInsights: "tmhtestinsights" 
   -provision
