Use Cloud licensing
The Tricentis Cloud License Service provides access to a license environment hosted by Tricentis. This allows you to use Tosca Testsuite without the necessity of additional server infrastructure.
First steps
Once you have purchased your licenses, you need to connect to the Cloud license server.
Cloud licensing requires communication through port 443 and protocol TLS 1.2.
After that, you can open Tosca Commander and start testing.
Work with Cloud licenses
Once you have set up licensing for your company, you can perform the following actions:
Checkout licenses
If you want to reserve a specific license for a particular user for a limited time, you can checkout this license on the user's machine. As long as you have checked out a license, no other host ID can use it. This includes Admin users.
You can checkout licenses for a maximum of 30 days.
For information on how to checkout licenses, see chapter "Checkout licenses ".
View available licenses
You can view a list of all available license packages. This list includes the following information:
-
included features
-
number of licenses
-
validity date of your licenses
For information on how to view available licenses, see chapter "View available licenses".
Manage licenses
Dedicated license managers with administrative rights can grant or revoke access to Cloud licenses.
For information on how to do so, see chapter "Manage Cloud licenses".
Switch between license types
If you have access to several license types, for example if you have an on-premise license server and a Cloud solution, you can switch between license types.
For information on how to switch license types, see chapter "Switch between license types".
Return idle licenses
If a user is running Tricentis Tosca Commander, but not actively using it, the user's license is still blocked. To free up idle licenses, you can change your Options so that Tricentis Tosca Commander returns idle licenses automatically.
For information on how to do this, see chapter "Return idle licenses".
