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:
In TestManager, access the properties window of a test case and select the Implementation tab.
In the Automated Implementation section, click Select and choose Rational Test RealTime.
In the Rational Test RealTime Test Selection window, 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").
The Select a Test Node or Group Node window now displays a list of all top-level group and test nodes.
Select the test node or group node that you want to associate with the TestManager test case and click OK. You can specify either a single test node, a group node containing one or more test nodes or child nodes of group nodes.
The text box in the Automated Implementation
section of the test case Properties window now displays the following path to the test node:
<group node name>.<test node name>
Note Click Options in the Implementation tab after selecting a Test RealTime test or group node to view the path to the Test RealTime project and the test or group node names.
