After you link Rational® requirements
collections or modules and HP ALM requirements folders, you can use
the Rational Adapter for
HP ALM to check whether each Rational requirement
has a corresponding HP ALM requirement.
You can then
automatically generate and link any missing HP ALM requirements. You
can repeat this procedure as new requirements are added. To synchronize
changes to existing requirements, use the suspect traceability feature.
Procedure
- Locate the HP ALM requirements folder that you are working
with:
- From your Rational requirements
management dashboard, select and hover
over the collection you are working with.
- From the preview, locate the References grouping
in the Links section and click the References link
to work with to go the Rational Adapter
for HP ALM resource page.
- Detailed information about the HP ALM requirements folder
you selected is displayed, including a list of links.
- Click the twistie next to the link to open a rich representation
of the collection.
- Click Reconcile. A
comparison is made between the requirements in the HP ALM requirements
module and requirements from the Rational requirements
collection or module. A list of any requirements without corresponding
HP ALM requirements is returned.
- Select the requirements for which you want to create new
requirements and click Reconcile. When a requirement
is created, it is given the same title and description as the corresponding Rational requirement and a
link between the requirements is also created.
