      You can find information about the tasks that you must complete before you configure a run of the HTTP virtual services in the HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) cluster or a remote Kubernetes cluster.
    - Setting up intercepts
      When you want to run virtual services on HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you can set up intercepts to route requests to the virtual service. You must configure the intercepts with the Test Hub URL, team space ID, and offline user token that is generated from Test Hub so that the intercepts can register with Test Hub.
  - Viewing intercepts that are registered with a team space on DevOps Test Hub
    After you install the HTTP proxies and configure them with your offline user token, the proxies register with HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) in a team space as intercepts and you can view the registered intercepts on the Agents and Intercepts page of the team space.
  - Viewing virtual service resources
    When project repositories contain virtual service resources and you want to view the resources so that you can start them, you can view the virtual services from the Resources page in your team space on HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub).
  - Configuring a run of a virtual service
    When you have virtual service resources that are in the repositories added to your project on HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub), you must configure a run of the virtual service to start an instance of the virtual service in the Test Hub cluster, a remote Kubernetes cluster, or an API agent.
  - Running HTTP virtual services in Kubernetes cluster without using proxies
    When you run HTTP virtual services in the Kubernetes cluster of HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) or a remote Kubernetes cluster, the endpoint on which the virtual service is exposed externally uses a host name that includes a generated ID. If a client application is required to call the virtual service directly via its external hostname and not via the HTTP proxy, then you might want to determine the hostname to configure the client first before you start the virtual service.
  - Viewing running instances of virtual services
    After you start virtual services from the Resources page, you can view the instances of the virtual services that are running from the Instances page on HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub). You can view the details, configuration settings, routing rules, usage statistics, or logs of a specific running instance of the virtual service. You can also stop the running instance.

- Machine learning capabilities in DevOps Test Hub
  HCL DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) uses Machine learning (ML) algorithms to analyze tests 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 DevOps Test Hub (Test Hub) 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.
