Chapter 4 - Implementing Tests
As with other types of test scripts, you can include your manual test scripts in
TestManager reports.
Note:
For detailed procedures about manual test scripts, see the Rational ManualTest
Help.
You can create a manual test script in three ways:
s
By importing a manual test script from another project or text file
s
By importing a test case design

In ManualTest
Importing a Manual Test Script from Another Project or a File
You can import a manual test script from another Rational project into the current
Rational project, from a Rational Test Asset Parcel (.RTPAR) file, from a text file, or
from a comma separated value (.CSV) file. You can also export a manual test script to
a text file. For information, see Exporting and Importing Test Assets on page 60.
Creating a Manual Test Script from a Test Case Design
As described in About Designing Tests on page 69, a test case design primarily answers
the question "How can I perform this test case?" A design can contain steps and
verification points.
You can easily create a manual test script from a test case design. The steps and
verification points in the design become steps and verification points in the manual
test script.
To create a manual test script from a test case design:
s
In TestManager, in the Test Case dialog box, click the
Implementation
tab. Click
Import from Test Case Design
.
Note:
For detailed procedures, see the Rational TestManager Help.
The manual test script becomes the implementation of the test case.
You can view and edit the manual test script by clicking

ManualTest is tightly integrated with TestManager. Use ManualTest to create and run
manual test scripts.
