Associating Test Nodes to Test Cases

Working with Other Development Tools
·
Facilitated debug efforts by maintaining the original test and runtime analysis
results in the Test RealTime project.
·
Execution support of multiple Test RealTime tests in multiple projects--stored
on multiple machines--from within a single TestManager test suite.
Note If you installed TestManager after Test RealTime, you must manually
install the plug-in. Please refer to the Rational Test RealTime Installation
Guide for further information.
Associating Test Nodes to Test Cases
All of the Test RealTime integration functionality is accessed and performed in
TestManager.
A Rational project must be enabled with the Enable Rational Project tool in order to
be used with Test RealTime. See the chapter Installing TestManager Integration.
The Rational project and Test RealTime project can be located on any network-
accessible drive - and not necessarily the same drive - but test execution must occur
locally, on the Windows machine upon which TestManager and Test RealTime are
co-installed. TestManager does not support remote target execution of Test RealTime
tests.
TestManager associates test cases with nodes found within the Test RealTime Project
Browser. You can only associate TestManager test cases with Test RealTime test
nodes and group nodes. Test RealTime application nodes are not supported.
(Although you can associate a test case with a Test RealTime group node, it is
recommended that a one-to-one correspondence between the test case and an
individual test node is preserved.)
To associate a TestManager test case with a test node or group node:
1.
In TestManager, access the properties window of a test case and select the
Implementation tab.
2.
In the Automated Implementation section, click Select and choose Rational Test
RealTime.
3. In
the
Rational Test RealTime Test Selection box, click Browse to select an .rtp
Test RealTime project file and click Open.
Note When the .rtp file is located on a network drive, indicate the location
with a UNC path ("\\machine_name\directory\file") instead of using a
mapped drive letter ("G:\directory\file").
