- System modeling
  You can use the system model feature on HCL OneTest™ Server to create a model that simulates an application or system under test. You can define components to represent the actual components in the system under test, define their relationships and then view the components in a system under test as a diagrammatic representation.
- 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 performance agents or API agents that you install on remote computers and then configure the remote 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 or virtual services.
- 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.
- Management of mobile device cloud credentials
  You can find information about managing the credentials that are required to connect to mobile device clouds from HCL OneTest™ Server.
  - Adding cloud credentials of mobile device clouds
    You as a Team Space Owner can add a cloud credential in the team space by using the details of your mobile device cloud subscription. This cloud credential represents a connection between HCL OneTest™ Server and a mobile device cloud.
  - Adding authorized users to a cloud credential
    After you add the mobile device cloud account details to a cloud credential in your team space, you can add other team space members as authorized users of this cloud credential. The authorized users can then run mobile tests on the devices that are connected to the mobile device cloud by using this cloud credential. The authorized users need not configure a connection to the mobile device cloud.
  - Viewing details of cloud credentials
    If you are a Team Space Owner, you can view the details of the cloud credential when you want to decide your action for adding or removing team space members, changing your cloud subscription details, or deleting a credential. If you are a Project Owner or Tester, you can verify whether you are added as an authorized user to use the cloud credential.
  - Editing details of cloud credentials
    If any of the details of your cloud subscription account change, you as a Team Space Owner can view the details of the existing cloud credential and edit it to update the credential with the latest details.
  - Removing authorized users from a cloud credential
    When you want to restrict the number of users accessing the mobile device clouds by using your subscription account due to any change in your subscription fee or for other valid reasons, you might want to remove some of the authorized users of the cloud credential.
  - Deleting an existing cloud credential
    When your cloud subscription to the mobile device cloud expires and you no longer need the connection from HCL OneTest™ Server, you can delete an existing cloud credential that you configured in your team space.
- 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 test runs in a GitHub Actions Workflow
  You can configure test runs of test resources that are in a project repository of HCL OneTest™ Server in a GitHub Actions Workflow. You can choose to run test resources that are in your server project in the GitHub Workflow when you do not want to run the test resources without opening the HCL OneTest Server project.
- 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 available 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.
- Machine learning capabilities in HCL OneTest™ Server
  HCL OneTest™ Server uses Machine learning (ML) algorithms to analyze test results that match certain requirements and criteria, and then presents the findings as insights and recommendations after the tests are run. You can use the insights and recommendations to interpret the test results and identify the problem areas in the system under test.
- 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 HCL OneTest™ Server
  Desktop clients and third-party integrations use offline user tokens to connect to HCL OneTest™ Server.
- Working with HCL OneTest™ Server REST services
  When you want to use the HCL OneTest™ Server REST APIs in your test automation scripts, you can view the REST APIs that are exposed by HCL OneTest Server. You can also run the APIs from within your project in HCL OneTest Server.

Deleting an existing cloud credential
