When requirements
are changed or deleted in the requirements
source application, the status of the requirement in IBM® Rational® Quality Manager is
updated to show the latest requirement status. Test cases that contain
requirements that change or are deleted are identified as suspect.
By responding to suspect test case, you can adjust test plans and
test cases quickly and accurately to respond to requirement changes.
About this task
When you discover
that a test case has become suspect
because associated requirements changed in the requirements application,
you can modify the test case based on the requirement changes.
To
modify the test case based on requirement changes:
Procedure
- If a requirement has been removed from the requirement
source application, you can manually remove that requirement from
test plans and test cases by selecting it, and clicking X.
- If the requirement is updated, verify whether the
association
between the requirement and test case is still valid, and then decide
whether the association needs to be updated by adding additional test
cases, updating test cases, or disconnecting associations
between the requirement and the current test cases.
