In the Test Page, the user can select and delete the Test Sets, but the website test is necessary, when the user try to remove all tests, the website is still there.



At the same time, the update setting and HTTP Throttled Test Switch is here.
b)     Advanced Page
Task assign, task scheduler, report uploader and test fetcher can be configured. The current desktop agent support English and Chinese, later more language will be added.
