Working with Rational Integration Test artifacts in HP Quality Center
After you complete the setup of the HP Quality Center and IBM® Rational® Integration Tester integration,
you can create tests in Quality Center that are based on Rational Integration Tester test
artifacts, such as tests and test suites. You create the tests in
HP Quality Center by using the GH-Tester test type. You can also link Rational Integration Tester tests
to HP Quality Center tests with the IBM RIT Quick Link tool rather
than having to link them one at a time.
Before you can use the links in the test output
in Rational Quality Manager, you must publish the details of your results
database connection from the IBM Rational Integration Tester project that contains the test case to Rational Test Control Panel. Do this task by clicking Publish results database
connection in the Project Settings
dialog. For more information, see Project settings and tasks. Publishing the results database connection is mandatory for every project
on the following occasions:
- After you configure the results database, but before you attempt to view results in Rational Test Control Panel.
- After updating the results database settings.
Navigating HP Quality Center
You create tests in the Test Plan module, and then create test sets and add tests to them in the Test Lab module. Test sets are collections of tests, similar to test suites in Rational Integration Tester. You also run tests and view the execution results in the Test Lab module.
Note: When
the automatic deployment option in Quality Center is
enabled, clients that are accessing the server must have local
administrator privileges to download and install plug-in
files. If the client browser fails to load these files
or hangs, verify that the current user account has
the appropriate privileges.
