You can set up communication between the Engineering Test Management application and the
Change and Configuration Management application so that you can use the Engineering Workflow Management
application as your build provider and synchronize build information with the Engineering Test Management application. After you set up this communication, users can track builds in the
Engineering Test Management application user interface, even though the build information is
maintained in the Engineering Workflow Management application.
Before you begin
The
IBM® Engineering Lifecycle Management integration must be configured before you can set up
communication between the
Engineering Test Management application and the
Engineering Workflow Management application.
Note: As a build provider, Engineering Workflow Management is the only supported Change
and Configuration Management application.
Also, verify that pop ups are enabled in your
browser.
Procedure
To set up build integration with the Engineering Workflow Management
application:
-
Set up a Engineering Workflow Management server as a friend of the Engineering Test Management
server. For details, see Establishing friend
relationships.
-
Set up the Engineering Workflow Management application so the Engineering Test Management
application can communicate with the Engineering Workflow Management application.
-
On the Administration page for the Engineering Workflow Management application, in the
Communication pane, click Consumers (Inbound) and associate a functional user under Consumer
(Inbound).
-
On the OAuth Consumers page, in the Register Consumer section, type function user to identify
the server that uses the consumer key.
-
Configure the Build Integration Framework in the Engineering Test Management application.
-
On the Jazz Team Server Home page, under Application Administration, go
to the Engineering Test Management (/qm) section and click
Application.
-
Under Configuration, click Advanced
Properties.
-
Under Build Integration Framework, go to the
com.ibm.rqm.buildintegration.service.asynctask.RTCBuildInformationCollector
component, and click Edit.
- Modify the property as required.
- Update the Delay value or accept the default setting.
The Delay value
determines how frequently the Engineering Test Management server synchronizes with the Change and
Configuration Management server. The default setting is 500 seconds. If you want to see changes more
frequently, decrease the delay. If this produces too great a load on the Engineering Test Management
server, you can increase the delay.
-
Click Save.
-
Set up the link between the Engineering Test Management project area and the Change and
Configuration Management project area. After you set up this link, the build information that is
created in the Engineering Workflow Management project area will be stored in the corresponding Engineering Test Management project area.
-
In the Engineering Test Management project, click the Administration
(
) icon in the banner, and select Manage Project
Properties.
-
Under Properties, click Build Provider.
-
For the Provider, select RTC Integration
Provider.
-
Click Configure.
A wizard starts for setting up the Engineering Workflow Management application as the build
provider.
-
Click Next.
-
On the next wizard page, select the Engineering Workflow Management project area for the builds.
-
Click Finish.
After you complete the wizard, the Builds Provider page is updated to show a successful status
and summary.
Results
After you complete these steps, users can track builds that are created in the Change and
Configuration Management application.
