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.
Before you begin
- Read and completed the tasks mentioned in Test run considerations for running tests on remote performance agents, if you want to use a remote agent as the location to run the test.
- Ensured that you are assigned a role as a Member or Project Creator in the team space. See Managing members and their roles in a team space.
- Ensured that you are assigned a role as a Project Owner or Tester in the project. See Managing access to server projects.
- Installed the agent by using your offline user token that makes you the owner of the agent or you are assigned the role of a Team Space Owner.
