Creating a location
Test locations associate a target host with a test deployment. The test suite will be executed
on the target host specified in the test location.
Create a test location:
- Right-click in the Test Navigator and select New > Test Element....
- Select Test Assets > Location and click Next.
- Provide the parent folder and the name for the test location and click Next.
- Optionally, provide a description for the test location and click Next.
- Enter the host name or IP address of the target host. By default, localhost is entered. Test the
connection to the target host by clicking the Test Connection link1.
- Click Finish to create the test location.
- The Confirm Open Editor dialog may appear (see the Window > Preferences... > Test > Open Editor preference), confirming if the new test location is to be opened in the Location editor.

(local host only) is required to be configured and running.
