If you run a test case that has a manual implementation and no automated
implementation, Rational ManualTest starts. You can perform the steps and
verification points in the manual test script and then view the results in the test
log. For more information, see Running Manual Test Scripts on page 117.
Ignoring Configured Test Cases
If you select the
Ignore configured test cases
check box in the Run Test Cases dialog
box, TestManager ignores the configurations and runs the test cases on any available
computers.
TestManager has three ways of running test cases if this option is selected:
s
If the selected test case has configured test cases and an implementation (for
example, a test script or suite), TestManager runs the selected test case on any
available computer but does not run any of the configured test cases.
s
If the selected test case has configured test cases but does not have an
implementation, TestManager does not run the test case or any configured test
cases.
s
If a single configured test case is selected, TestManager runs the test case on the
specified configuration.
Before You Run a Suite
The following steps are involved with running a suite:
s
Checking the suite
s
Checking Agent computers
s
Controlling runtime information of the suite
s
Controlling how the suite terminates
s
Specifying virtual testers and configurations for the suite run
s
Stopping the suite
The following sections describe these steps. For information about creating a
functional testing suite, see Creating Functional Testing Suites on page 203. For
information about creating a performance testing suite, see Designing Performance
Testing Suites
on page 263.
