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.
- 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 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.
  - Integration plugin compatibility matrix
    You can find information about the versions of the integration plugin that are compatible with HCL OneTest™ Server.
  - Integration with Azure DevOps
    When you use Azure DevOps for continuous integration and continuous development of your application, you can run tests created for your application and available in a project on HCL OneTest™ Server, in Azure DevOps pipelines by using the HCL OneTest Studio extension.
  - Integration with HCL® Launch
    You can integrate HCL OneTest™ Server with HCL® Launch to run test assets as a Process from HCL Launch.
  - Integration with IBM Engineering Test Management
    As a Project Owner, you can integrate IBM® Engineering Test Management as a quality management solution with HCL OneTest™ Server. You can run test assets that are available in a project from Engineering Test Management.
    - Task flow for integration of IBM® Engineering Test Management
      You must perform the following tasks in sequence to integrate HCL OneTest™ Server with IBM® Engineering Test Management. For more information about the tasks, refer to the links provided in the table.
    - Adding the adapter files to IBM® Engineering Test Management
      You must add the adapter files to the installation directory to run test assets of HCL OneTest™ Server from IBM® Engineering Test Management.
    - Configuring IBM® Engineering Test Management on HCL OneTest™ Server
      You must configure IBM® Engineering Test Management on HCL OneTest™ Server to establish a connection between the two products.
    - Preparing test cases in IBM® Engineering Test Management
      You must create a test script and a test case on IBM® Engineering Test Management to run the test assets.
    - Running tests from IBM® Engineering Test Management
      After you create a test case in IBM® Engineering Test Management, you can run the test. The test case includes the test scripts that contains test assets of HCL OneTest™ Server.
    - Deleting an IBM® Engineering Test Management adapter
      You might want to delete an IBM® Engineering Test Management adapter when it is no longer needed.
  - Integration with Jenkins
    You can use the HCL OneTest™ Server plugin to integrate HCL OneTest Server with Jenkins. After you complete the integration, you can run tests assets that are available in a project of HCL OneTest Server from a Jenkins server.
  - Integration with UrbanCode™ Deploy
    You can integrate HCL OneTest™ Server with IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy to run test assets as a Process from UrbanCode Deploy.
  - Integration with other applications
    You can integrate certain applications with HCL® OneTest™ Data to generate the test data.
- Managing access to the server
  Desktop clients and third-party integrations use offline user tokens to connect to HCL OneTest™ Server.
