Test Execution Specialist Guide
This guide describes tasks that you must complete before you can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server. You can find information about configuring runs for the different test types that are supported. You can also find information about other tasks that you can perform on the Resource Monitoring Service, Virtualization, and Integrations with third-party applications. This guide is intended for testers or test execution specialists.
Management of agents
You can find information about managing the agents that you must install on remote computers and configure the agents to register with HCL OneTest™ Server. After the agents are registered, you can add them to your projects and then select them as locations to run tests.
Management of performance agents
You can manage the performance agents that you want to use as locations to run tests from HCL OneTest™ Server. When you install the agents by using your offline user token, the agents are registered with the team space in HCL OneTest Server. You can view the registered agents before you add them to your projects. You can then select them as locations to run tests.

- System modeling
  In this topic, you can find information about using the system model feature. You can also find the tasks that you can perform to create a system model. You must configure a repository to save the system model that you created for the application under test.
- Prerequisites to running tests
  Before you can run a test asset in a project on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must read the information about the different tests assets. You can add a remote static agent, Docker host, or Kubernetes cluster to the project and then select it as an alternate location to run the test assets.
- Management of agents
  You can find information about managing the agents that you must install on remote computers and configure the agents to register with HCL OneTest™ Server. After the agents are registered, you can add them to your projects and then select them as locations to run tests.
  - Management of performance agents
    You can manage the performance agents that you want to use as locations to run tests from HCL OneTest™ Server. When you install the agents by using your offline user token, the agents are registered with the team space in HCL OneTest Server. You can view the registered agents before you add them to your projects. You can then select them as locations to run tests.
    - Test run considerations for running tests on remote performance agents
      Before you configure a test to run on a remote performance agent from HCL OneTest™ Server, you must read the considerations that you must take into account.
    - Viewing performance agents that are registered with HCL OneTest™ Server
      After you install the remote performance agents and configure them with your offline user token, the performance agents register with HCL OneTest™ Server and you can view the registered performance agents on the Agents and Intercepts page.
    - Adding a performance agent to a project
      If you have performance tests that distribute workload across different workstations or Accelerated Functional Testing (AFT) Suites that need to run on different platforms and browsers, you can add HCL OneTest™ Performance Agents to your projects to run tests on remote workstations.
    - Working with agent capabilities
      When you installed static agents V10.1.2 or later, and added them to your project, you can view capabilities of the agents from the Infrastructure page. When you installed static agents V10.2.0 or later, you can add, view, edit, or delete properties and capabilities of agents from the User Defined panel of that agent.
- Management of Docker hosts
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on remote Docker hosts. After you set up a remote Docker host, you can register the Docker host with HCL OneTest™ Server. You must then add the registered remote Docker host to your project before you can run tests on the remote Docker host location.
- Management of remote Kubernetes clusters
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on remote Kubernetes clusters. After you set up a remote Kubernetes cluster, you can register the external cluster with a team space on HCL OneTest™ Server. You must then add the remote cluster to a project before you run test assets or resources on the remote Kubernetes cluster.
- Test run configurations
  You can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server after you add the test resources to your project in your team space.
- Configuration of a scan of an application code
  You can use HCL OneTest™ Server to scan your application code for security vulnerabilities similar to using the HCL AppScan CodeSweep plugin to scan code in Visual Studio.
- Management of running tests
  Find information about the tasks that you can perform on a test that you configured for a run either while it runs or after it completes the run.
- Management of virtualized services
  You can find information about the tasks that you can perform on and manage the virtualized services that run on HCL OneTest™ Server. You can start or stop the virtual services that are connected to HCL OneTest Server. You can view the routing rules and usage statistics of virtualized services, agents, or intercepts that are connected to HCL OneTest Server.
- Test results
  After the tests, Suites, or schedules are run and completed, you can view the results and open the reports in HCL OneTest™ Server to analyze the verdict, the performance, and statistics. You can also re-execute tests and schedules from the Result page with the same commit id.
- Resource monitoring
  When you apply load to a system under test, the amount of resources consumed by your system is increasing. If the capacity of the resources does not match the load, you can see performance issues in the results. Resource monitoring in HCL OneTest™ Server helps you monitoring the resources of a system and establish the performance metrics and usage data of the system. Thus, you can observe the health of these resources while a schedule is running.
- Configuration of a change management system
  When you use any application to create and track defects (bugs), issues, or other work items, you can configure the application as a change management system on HCL OneTest™ Server. You can then create defects (bugs), issues, or other work items without the need to open your application.
- Integrations with other applications
  You can integrate certain applications with HCL OneTest™ Server to run tests, view the test results, and create defects.
- Managing access to the server
  Desktop clients and third-party integrations use offline user tokens to connect to HCL OneTest™ Server.

Management of performance agents

You can manage the performance agents that you want to use as locations to run tests from HCL OneTest™ Server. When you install the agents by using your offline user token, the agents are registered with the team space in HCL OneTest™ Server. You can view the registered agents before you add them to your projects. You can then select them as locations to run tests.

When you plan to run any of the tests on a remote performance agent from a project in HCL OneTest™ Server, you must have completed the following tasks:

Installed the performance agent of the same version as the version of HCL OneTest™ Server. Refer to the HCL OneTest™ Performance documentation for installing the performance agent at Installing HCL OneTest Performance agent.
Configured the performance agent with your offline user token so that the performance agent can register with HCL OneTest™ Server.
Note: When you configure the performance agent by using your offline user token, HCL OneTest™ Server considers you as the owner of the performance agent.
Verified that you have write permissions to the majordomo.config file so that certain transactions can be written by HCL OneTest™ Server to the majordomo.config file.
Note: You can verify if you have the Read and Write permissions by checking the properties of the majordomo.config file.
Viewed the performance agents that are registered with HCL OneTest™ Server. See Viewing performance agents that are registered with HCL OneTest Server.
Added the remote performance agents that are registered with HCL OneTest™ Server to your project on HCL OneTest™ Server. See Adding a performance agent to a project.
After you add the remote performance agents to your project, HCL OneTest™ Server determines the capabilities that are provided by the remote performance agent and displays the details and capabilities of the performance agent on the Agents and Intercepts page. You can also define the capabilities that you want to add, and then view, edit, or delete the capabilities that you defined for the performance agents in your project. See Working with agent capabilities.
