- Test Editor overview
  You can use the Test Editor tab to create and manage test assets such as applications, Web UI tests, and test suites in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub).
- Application management
  When you want to create and manage Web UI tests in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must first create an application within the project.
- Web UI test management
  You can test your web applications by recording Web UI tests in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). Test Hub supports industry-standard browsers such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox to record and play back Web UI tests. After the playback, you can evaluate the test results.
  - Web UI test creation
    You can create Web UI tests by using the recording option or the empty test option in the HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). Test Hub automatically enables web browsers and provides DevOps Test Runtime or the recording agent to configure the test environment before you start recording tests for web applications.
  - Running a Web UI test
    You can run a Web UI test in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) after you record the test, and to verify that the web application performs as expected.
  - Viewing step-level results and updating tests
    You can view the step-level results of each step after running a Web UI test. You can edit and update the failed steps in test scripts.
  - Stopping a test run
    You can stop a test run when issues occur or if you decide to stop the run before completion.
  - Modification of Web UI tests
    With Test Editor, you can view and customize a Web UI test that is created in Test Hub.
  - Renaming a test asset

  - Deleting a test asset
    You can delete an application, test, suite, or smartshot when it is no longer required in your project. If the test asset that is selected for deletion is referenced in another test or a test suite, or if the selected smartshot is referenced in a test, a warning is displayed.
  - Creating a test module from an existing set of steps
    When a set of steps are repeated and required in multiple tests, you can create a test module for such repeatable steps. You can select the required steps that are in sequence from an existing test and extract them to create a new test module. After extraction, the selected steps are replaced by the Run step and the new test module is listed in the test navigator panel.
  - Viewing test assets exported from DevOps Test UI
    When you export Web UI test projects from HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI) to HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), Test UI extracts test assets, processes them, and generates a .yaml file that contains the step details and the associated smartshots. You can then view the test assets of the Web UI test projects that are exported from Test UI.
  - Test creation by Test Genie - Tech Preview
- Test suite management
  A suite is a collection of the tests and other suites. You can combine the multiple tests and suites into a single workflow and organize them into a suite.
- Test variables
  A test variable is a user-defined, name-value pair that stores and refers to information throughout a test. You can assign the value of a variable to a test element or assign the value of a UI object property to a test variable.
- Catalog management
  You can use the data catalog in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) to browse and manage data generators used in test data creation. The catalog section provides access to built-in generators, allows you to create custom generators tailored to specific needs, and group them using custom categories.
- Data management
  Effective data management is at the core of robust application testing. In HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can manage test data by using the Data tab, which provides a centralized workspace for handling various types of data. Whether you work with fabricated data, retrieve information from databases, or define structured schemas, this interface supports both creating new data and reusing existing assets across your testing requirements.
- Publishing all changes in an Edit branch
  After you create or modify any data or test assets in an Edit branch of a project in HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can publish all the changes that are in an Edit branch to the source branch in the project repository. After publishing, other members in the project can view and use the resources.
