Projects
The Tenant management's Projects tab lets admin users create and configure projects within your tenant.
Create and configure projects
The Projects tab enables admin users to designate a OpenText Core Performance Engineering project for specific work groups, products, or projects within your group.
Load generators can be shared by multiple projects. However, assets such as scripts, monitors, and load tests, cannot be shared between projects.

Manage cloud load generators
The Load Generators > Cloud area lets admin users set lower limits for the number of Vusers. By setting the lower limit, you control the maximum number of Vusers that end users can run on cloud load generators per protocol.
To configure cloud load generator limits for a project:
-
Choose a project, click the Load Generators button to open the Load Generators pane. Select the Cloud tab. OpenText Core Performance Engineering displays a list of protocols and their lower and upper limits.
-
In the Active column, turn on the switch for the protocols that you want users to be able to customize Vuser capacity in their tests. If you do not activate the protocol, it uses the tenant’s default limits.
Note: Only those protocols included in your bundle are available.
-
Modify the lower limit of active protocols as required. This provides control over the Vuser multiplier ratio that may apply for calculating license usage. For a summary of the multiplier ranges, click the Vusers Multipliers Range button.
-
Click Apply.
-
End users can manually lower the limit of Vusers through the Test settings. For details, see Set Vuser limits.
Note: The new lower limit also applies to previous tests. If the maximum number of Vusers set manually by the end user (see Configure test settings) is lower than the admin's lower limit, it is automatically set to the new lower limit.
Manage agents
The Agents area lets you add or remove a Git agent from the current project.
To manage Git agents for a project:
-
Choose a project and click Agents in the sidebar. The Agents pane displays a list of agents, their usage, type, status, and creation date.
-
Click + Add Agent to add an agent to the current project. If the account that configured the Git agent does not have access to the project, the Add Agent dialog box does not show that agent.
-
Click X Remove Agent to remove the selected agent from the current project.

To view all the tests that are scheduled to run for the project, choose a project and click the Schedules button to open the Schedules pane.
For each test schedule listed, the following information is displayed:
- The name of the test.
- The scheduled date for the test run.
- The scheduled time for the test run.
- The duration of the test.
To filter the displayed test schedules:

Choose a project and click the Active Runs button. The Active Runs pane shows the active test runs for the selected project.
For each of the test runs, the following information is displayed:
-
The test run ID. Click the Run ID link to see the Dashboard for the test run.

The name of the test. Click the Test name link to see the test's scripts.
Note: The test ID and name only include links if the user is assigned to the project.
