Editing Remote Locations

You can use the Remote Locations dialog box to add any browsers and mobile devices on a remote location to the set of applications that you can test.

Click Tools > Edit Remote Locations. The Remote Locations dialog box appears.
To add an additional remote location, perform the following actions:
1. Click on the arrow to the right of Add Location to specify whether you want to add a remote location which is using the Silk Test Information Service, Silk Central, or UFT Mobile.
  Note: You can only configure one Silk Central as a remote location. If you have already configured the integration with Silk Central, Silk Central is listed in the remote locations list.
2. Click Add Location. The Add Location dialog box appears.
3. Type the URL of the remote location and the port through which Silk Test Workbench connects to the information service on the remote machine into the Host field. The default port is 22901.
4. If you are trying to add a secure connection through HTTPS to UFT Mobile, install the UFT Mobile certificate. For additional information, see Installing the Certificate for an HTTPS Connection to UFT Mobile.
5. If you are trying to add connection to UFT Mobile, specify your User name and Password for UFT Mobile. For information on changing the UFT Mobile password, see Changing the UFT Mobile Password.
6. Optional: Edit the name of the remote location in the Name field.
7. Optional: Click Test to verify that the remote connection works.
8. Click OK.
To edit an existing remote location, click Edit.
To remove a remote location, click Remove.
Optional: To reduce the amount of browsers and devices in the Select Application dialog, click Do not show devices and browsers from this location. The installed browsers and connected devices of the remote location will no longer be displayed in the Select Application dialog. By default, all installed browsers and connected devices of all remote locations are displayed in the Select Application dialog.
Click OK.

When you have added a remote location, the browsers that are installed on the remote location, including Apple Safari on a Mac, are available in the Web tab of the Select Application dialog box, and the mobile devices that are connected to the remote location are available in the Mobile tab of the Select Application dialog box.
