Creating a location

Test locations identify the computer where the test suite will run.

Repeat the same sequence of steps as for creating a deployment but for this example create a location named testLocation.

  1. Right-click in the Test Navigator and select  New > TestElement...
  2. Open Test Assets and select location.
  3. Click on Next to open the New Location dialog.
  4. Select the parent folder and enter the artifact name (testLocation).
  5. Click on Next and optionally enter a description for the location.
  6. Click Finish. The Location editor opens.

If the intention is to run tests on another computer, the name of that computer must be entered in the Host name field of the relevant location.

Where a TPTP JUnit Test is being deployed remotely, there are a number of other considerations to take into account. These are covered in the documentation relating to TPTP JUnit Test.
