6.5 Defining User Authentication Settings

Define user authentication identities for tests that require them, such as LDAP and tests that require Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA)/Windows NT LAN Manager (NTLM) authentication. During deployment, tests load all associates user authentication identities.

To define user authentication settings:

  1. In the Explorer pane, expand the Elements root element > Experience Manager Adapter > Administration > Test Administration.

  2. Right-click Authentication Identities, then click Create Identity to open the Create Identity dialog box:

  3. In the Name text box, type a name for the identity definition.

  4. In the User Name text box, type the expected user name.

    Enter the domain\user name for an HTTP(S) scenario to perform authentication with a Web server that requires IWA/NTLM authentication. For example, NET1\ajones. When the test executes, Experience Manager detects the IWA/NTLM requirement and performs the authentication.

  5. In the Password text box, type the expected password.

  6. Click the Create button to save the identity definition.

    The new identity definition displays under the Identities element.
