You must configure the Software
Testing Automation Framework Execution Engine (STAX) adaptor
in IBM® Rational® Quality Manager so
that you can run STAX tasks.
Procedure
- Modify the integration_config.xml file on the Rational Quality Manager server
to include the following lines:
The staxPath is the base path on the Rational Quality Manager server
that contains the STAX XML files. Rational Quality Manager scans
this directory and all sub-directories for STAX XML files. scanInterval
is the interval in seconds in which Rational Quality Manager scans
staxPath for changes to STAX XML files.
Note: STAX File Updates:
Any changes to STAX automation code
are available immediately for any newly submitted jobs, however, tasks
that are added or deleted, or updates to STAX task names and
arguments do not display in the Rational Quality Manager user
interface until the next task scan (up to scanInterval duration).
- If you are using an integrated STAX server on the Rational Quality Manager server, hostname must
be set to local. Do not use other aliases such
as localhost or 127.0.0.1.
- To use the default port, set the port to 0.
If Software
Testing Automation Framework (STAF) is configured
to use an alternate port, you can set that port here.
- Set dbLocation to the path for the embedded
database used by the STAX adaptor. This folder
is created automatically, but the parent folder must already exist.
This element is optional and defaults to lmstax in
the working folder.
