- 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.
- 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.

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.

Test run considerations for schedules

Before you configure a Rate Schedule or VU Schedule run, you must first read the considerations that you need to take into account.

Important information about JMeter tests in schedules

When you want to run JMeter tests as part of the VU Schedule or Rate Schedule on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must have completed the following tasks:

Installed the HCL OneTest™ Performance Agent on a computer.
Installed the JMeter application on the computer where you have installed the HCL OneTest™ Performance Agent.
Set the environment variable JMETER_HOME that points to the JMeter installation directory.

Important information about Resource Monitoring sources in schedules

When you want to run schedules on HCL OneTest™ Server, you must have completed the following tasks in HCL OneTest™ Performance:

Created a performance schedule of Rate or VU type.
Added Resource Monitoring sources, or the labels of Resource Monitoring sources to a schedule. Refer to Adding resource monitoring sources to a performance schedule by using labels.

Before you configure a run of a Schedule, you must complete the following tasks in HCL OneTest™ Server:

Add Resource Monitoring sources to your project in HCL OneTest™ Server. See Monitoring an NGINX server.
Enable HCL OneTest™ Server as Resource Monitoring service only if you want to replace Resource Monitoring labels set in HCL OneTest™ Performance with the labels that you created in HCL OneTest™ Server. See Controlling resource monitoring sources in a schedule.
Perform the following steps when you want to override the Resource Monitoring labels in the test asset with the Resource Monitoring labels that you create in HCL OneTest™ Server:
1. Click the Resource Monitoring tab.
  
  Note:
  The Resource Monitoring tab displays only if you enabled the Resource Monitoring from Service option in HCL OneTest™ Performance when you created the test asset.
2. Click , and press the Ctrl + Space bar keys, or enter the initial letter of a label to select a label in the list.
  
  Note:
  You can select or add labels only if you added the labels in the Resource Monitoring Sources page in HCL OneTest™ Server.
