Rational projects and the Rational Administrator

When you create a Functional Tester project, you can use the project stand-alone, or associate it with a Rational® project to take advantage of the Functional Test integration features with TestManager.

You must install Rational Administrator and Rational TestManager to associate a Functional Tester project with a Rational project.

Note: To view the Rational TestManager version that can be integrated with Rational Functional Tester, see List of supported domains for functional testing by releases of Rational Functional Tester versions 8.0 and 8.1 tech. note.

To associate a Functional Tester project with a Rational project, you must first create a Rational project using the Rational Administrator. For more detailed information about creating a Rational project, see the Rational Administrator Help.

A Rational project stores software testing and development information. All Rational components on your computer update and retrieve data from the same project.

Note:

A Rational project can consist of the following projects or associated projects:

Security and privileges

When administrators create Rational projects using the Administrator, they determine the security of the Rational Test project.

For any Rational project, administrators can create test groups with specific write and administration privileges, and they can create test users and assign them to test groups. The test users take on the privileges of the test groups to which they are assigned. For more information about security and privileges, see the Administrator Help.

Note: The write or administration privileges that you set for a Rational project do not affect a Functional Test project that you associate with a Rational project.
