Managing Devices

Info
Before You Begin: Complete Running Your First Test and keep the server, dashboard, and device agent running.


The Devices page lists the embedded systems known by the Test Orchestrator. A device normally appears automatically when its agent connects to the server.

1. Open the Device List

Open the dashboard in a browser:

http://127.0.0.1:5173

Select Devices from the top navigation bar.


Info
Screenshot Placeholder: Devices page showing at least one connected device. Suggested file name: test-orchestrator-devices-page.png.


The table provides the following information:

Field Meaning
ID Unique device identifier used by the agent and server.
Name Friendly name shown in the dashboard.
Hostname Hostname reported by the embedded device.
Platform Platform name reported by the agent.
Last Seen Last time the agent registered with the server.

2. Open a Device

Select the device ID from the table.

The device page displays:

  • Device name, ID, hostname, and platform.
  • Tests discovered from the device manifests.
  • Tests assigned and configured for the device.
  • Test suites, displayed as Test groups in the current dashboard.


Info
Screenshot Placeholder: Top of the device details page showing the device information and the Available tests table. Suggested file name: test-orchestrator-device-details.png.


If the expected device is not listed, verify that its agent is running with the correct SERVER_URL. Then refresh the Devices page.

3. Add a Device Entry Manually (Optional)

The agent normally creates and updates its own device entry. To prepare an entry before connecting the agent:

  1. Select Add Device from the Devices page.
  2. Enter a unique Device ID.
  3. Enter the device Name, Hostname, and Platform.
  4. Enter the expected Agent version.
  5. Select Create device.


Info
Screenshot Placeholder: Add Device form completed with sample device information. Suggested file name: test-orchestrator-add-device.png.


Creating this entry does not install or start the agent. The agent must connect using the same device ID before the Test Orchestrator can discover or run tests on that device.

Next Step

You can now find connected devices and open their validation settings. Continue to Creating Test Manifests to add a project-specific test.
