CA E2E TDM Complete Documentation

[Raghu Krishna]

I am trying hard to find some End to End documentation on CA TDM tool to check what features are available in the tool. From Layman's language, I would like to know from basics starting from installation. I have checked few video tutorials as well, and I am unable to understand objectives of the tool and low level explanation.

Is there any complete guide available or good reading material other than official docs site, please provide your feedback.

Is there any complete PDF available somewhere for better read. Else, consider this question as closed.

 

Thank you...

If you click on the ‘PDF' button towards the top right of the docops page, it will create a PDF of everything below the current level of the page you have currently selected.

 

 

This should paginated correctly for offline reading.

 

(Similarly, you can create an EPUB format file for use with an e-reader instead of a PDF)

Hi,

  As well as reviewing the documentation you may also want to review some of the you tube content:

CA TDM Review (Real User: Virginia Messina) - YouTube 

Test Data Manager: Cut Testing Time without Cutting Corners - YouTube 

Protect confidential data with Static Data Masking - YouTube 

 

   We also have this playlist which contains videos for lots of the TDM components.

CA Test Data Manager - YouTube 

 

   Hope this helps.

I am following Getting Started - CA Test Data Manager - 4.5 - CA Technologies Documentation , I am using SV product and now interested in vTDM. 

From screen capture, I have highlighted vTDM. Should I just have to follow that documentation OR is there a dependency on other products like Javelin, Datamaker, Profiling Data etc. If there is a dependency, may I request to give your short explanation on how all of them are inter-related, high-level architecture will help.

Hi,

    vTDM is an extension of the TDM portal, to get vTDM working you need to deploy the vTDM appliance, datamaker and TDM Portal. The link you have highlighted is the correct documentation for vTDM and we have two you tube videos that explain how vTDM works.
