  - Deleting components
    When you do not require a component in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can delete the component from the system model.
  - Publishing changes to the system model
    When you create, delete, or modify components in a system model in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), the changes are saved locally and are not visible to the other project members or team space members. You must publish the system model changes to the team space repository to make your changes visible to all users of the team space.
  - Associating resources with components
    After creating components in the system model in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can navigate to a project in the team space to associate the Suites, tests, or virtual service resources in the project repositories with components in the system model.
  - Viewing resources that are associated with components
    After you associate Suites, tests, or virtual services resources with components in the system model in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can view the associated resources from the System Model page. You can opt to run an instance of the associated resource or stop a running instance of the associated resource.
  - Removing resources that are associated with components
    When you do not want to retain the resource that you associated with a component in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can delete the resource association from the system model.
  - Publishing changes of associating or dissociating resources with components
    After you associate or dissociate resources in a project with a component in the system model in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must publish the changes made to the branch in the project repository so that the association changes are visible to the other members of the project.
  - Viewing the system model
    You can view an existing system model that is in a team space in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub).
  - Deleting a system model
    When you want to create a new system model in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must first delete the existing system model, as only one system model is supported per team space.
  - Deleting a repository from a team space
    You can delete a repository from a team space in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) when you do not want to use a team space repository.
- Prerequisites to running tests
  Before you can run a test asset in a project on HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), 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.
