- Prerequisites to running tests
  Before you can configure and run a test in a project on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must read the information about the different tests. You might want to add a remote static agent or a remote Docker host to the project as an alternate location to run the tests.
- Agents overview
  You can find information about the agents that you must install on remote computers and configure the agents with the offline user token so that the agents 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.
- Managing Docker hosts
  You can set up dedicated external Docker hosts to run large tests or run tests remotely to free up the dependency of running tests on the internal Docker host of HCL OneTest™ Server.
- Test run configurations
  You can configure and run tests in HCL OneTest™ Server after you add the test resources to your project.
- 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 stubs connected to HCL OneTest Server. You can view the stub usage statistics and the routing rules configured for the stubs, agents, or proxies that are connected to HCL OneTest Server.
  - Prerequisites for running stubs
    You can find information about the prerequisite tasks that you must complete before you can run stubs on HCL OneTest™ Server.
    - Prerequisites for running HTTP stubs
      You can find information about the tasks that you must complete before you run HTTP stubs on HCL OneTest™ Server.
    - Prerequisites for running Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest™ Server
      You can find information about the tasks that you must complete before you run Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest™ Server.
    - Setting up the HTTP proxy
      When you want to run stubs on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must set up an HTTP proxy that the stubs can use. You must configure the HTTP proxy with the HCL OneTest Server URL and offline user token generated from HCL OneTest Server so that the HTTP proxy can register with HCL OneTest Server.
  - Starting a stub
    When you have stubs in the API test assets, you can start the stubs contained in the API test assets from the Execution page in HCL OneTest™ Server.
  - Running an API Suite that references local stubs
    When you want to run an API Suite that references local stubs, you can use the HTTP proxy registered with HCL OneTest™ Server to run the local stubs. The API Suite also contains tests that run on the stubs. You must configure the HTTP transport to use the HTTP proxy in the project and commit the project to the remote repository.
  - Viewing routing rules
    When stubs are created to run on agents or proxies, or have routing rules defined, and you run such stubs on HCL OneTest™ Server, you can view the agents, proxies, or the routing rules from the Routing Rules page.
  - Viewing stub usage statistics
    After you start stubs that are connected to HCL OneTest™ Server, and then run tests on the stub, you can view the stub usage statistics from the Stub Usage page on HCL OneTest Server.
  - Stopping a stub
    When you want to stop a stub that is running in HCL OneTest™ Server, you can stop the running stub from the Progress page. You must stop a running stub after you have completed running tests that are used by the stub.
- Test results
  After the tests or schedules are run and completed, you can view the results and 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 service
  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. The Resource Monitoring service in HCL OneTest™ Server helps you monitoring the resources of a system and establish the performance metrics of the system. Thus, you can observe the health of these resources while a schedule is running.
- Integrating with other applications
  You can integrate certain applications with HCL OneTest™ Server to run tests and view the test results.
- Managing access to the server
  Desktop clients and third-party integrations use offline user tokens to connect to HCL OneTest™ Server.
Test Manager Guide
This guide describes how to manage and track your overall test effort. This guide is intended for test managers.

Prerequisites for running Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest™ Server

You can find information about the tasks that you must complete before you run Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest™ Server.

Configuring Istio stubs that virtualize services in HCL OneTest™ Server

When you intend to virtualize services in the Istio mesh in HCL OneTest™ Server, you can create stubs in HCL OneTest™ API.

When you create the Istio stubs in HCL OneTest™ API, you must ensure that you are aware of the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or the short name of the service that you want to virtualize in the Kubernetes cluster that hosts HCL OneTest™ Server.

The FQDN of the service is as follows:

<service-name>.<namespace>.<svc>.<cluster-name>

The short name of the service is as follows:

<service-name>

For example, if you want to virtualize the HTTP traffic in the service named as reviews that runs in a namespace named as bookinfo, and in the resource named as svc in the Kubernetes cluster named as mycluster, then the FQDN of the service is as follows:

reviews.bookinfo.svc.mycluster

The short name of the service is as follows:

reviews

You must enter the host of the service that you want to virtualize, in the Host field of the physical transport in HCL OneTest™ API. You can provide either the FQDN or the short name of the service.

Note: The pass-through action in the stubs is not supported when the short name of the service is entered in the Host field.

Enabling the running of stubs that virtualize Istio services

Before you run the stubs that virtualize services in namespaces contained in the HCL OneTest™ Server Kubernetes cluster, you must enable HCL OneTest™ Server to determine the namespace that contains the service that you want to virtualize.

HCL OneTest™ Server determines the namespace based on the following configurations of the Host of the physical transport:

If you configured the FQDN in the host, HCL OneTest™ Server uses the namespace that is specified in the FQDN.
If you configured the short name in the host, HCL OneTest™ Server uses the namespace from among the virtualization namespaces that were provided at the time of installation of HCL OneTest™ Server.

You must specify the namespaces that contain the services that you want to virtualize at the time of the installation of HCL OneTest™ Server.
