ATS 12.5 New Features and Updates: 12.5 Upgrade FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the installation files of Win32 bit and Win64 bit versions?

A: The only difference between Win32 and Win64 zip is Oracle XE DB. OATS 12.5.0.x no longer supports XE 10 and installs XE 11 as part of the

complete install. However, XE 11 is different for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, hence there are 2 different zip installation files.

Q: I have OATS 12.4 (including OLT and OTM) installed on my 64-bit Windows system. Which installation file should I use to upgrade to 12.5?

A: First migrate the database from XE 10 to XE 11, (or to EE 11/12c), then use the full installation (32-bit or 64-bit) OR micro-install (32-bit) to upgrade to

12.5. Please work with your DBA to migrate your data to XE11/EE11. Also refer to the OATS installation guide (page 2). OATS Installation guide can be

found at the following location. <install file>\docs\en

(NOTE: Installation will not let you continue the upgrade until you have completed the migration.)

Q: I have OATS 12.4 installed on my 64-bit Windows system. Can I use micro-install (32-bit) to upgrade my OATS 12.4 to 12.5?

A: Yes you can use micro-install (32-bit) to upgrade OATS from 12.4 to 12.5 on your 64-bit Windows system. Because micro-install does not contain XE

setup, it can be used for either 32-bit or 64-bit systems. Please note however, you still need to first migrate XE 10 to XE 11 (or EE11/12C) before

performing the upgrade.

Q: I ONLY have OpenScript 12.4 (without OLT and OTM) installed on my 64-bit Windows system. Which installation file should I use to

upgrade to 12.5?

A: Use micro-install (32-bit), or full installation (32-bit or 64-bit) to upgrade to 12.5.

Q: Does OATS 12.5 support Oracle Database 12c?

A: Yes OATS 12.5 does support Oracle Database 12c. Please note that OATS 12.5 does not support multi-tenant container DB, thus you must clear the

multitenant "Create a Container Database" option (which is selected by default) in OUI during the installation of Oracle Database 12c. Please see the

OATS installation guide for details.

ATS 12.5 New Features and Updates: Planned End of Support for Windows

Vista Operating System

What is being announced?

Oracle Application Testing Suite version 12.5.0.1 is planned to be the last version to support the

Windows Vista operating system.

Why is this being announced?

Windows Vista will not be supported for new Oracle Application Testing Suite installations.

What is the impact of end of support?

The end of support will mean customers will have to move their test platform to a supported

operating system.

What do you need to do?

If the Windows Vista operating system is being used in your environment, you should begin planning

for the end of support for Windows Vista and system upgrades to make sure the continuity of your

test process management, while Windows Vista support is phased out in a future release.
