To run Test Execution Records containing AppScan® Tester Edition Test Scripts,
you must configure an adapter to pass execution information from Rational® Quality
Manager to AppScan Tester
Edition and vice versa. All external test tools use this method to accept
requests to run, and to deliver results back to Rational Quality Manager.
For AppScan Tester
Edition, the adapter is located on the Rational Quality Manager server itself.
Before you begin
Ensure that Rational Quality Manager server is started and that
communication with the AppScan server has been established before continuing.
Procedure
- Log on to the server hosting Rational Quality Manager.
- Run the Adapter Setup. This can be launched from the Start Menu
(IBM® Rational Quality
Manger > IBM Rational AppScan Tester
Edition Adapter > Setup IBM Rational AppScan Tester Edition Adapter).
This utility will prompt you for connection information, such as the location
of Rational Quality
Manager, and the account under which the adapter will run. The utility only
needs to be run once. It will save an encrypted file containing connection
information and used in subsequent launches of the adapter.
- Once the Adapter setup has completed successfully, launch the adapter
from the Start Menu (IBM Rational Quality Manger > IBM Rational AppScan Tester Edition Adapter > Start IBM Rational AppScan Tester
Edition Adapter).
- When the adapter has started successfully, test scripts can be
executed from within Rational Quality Manager.
- To stop the adapter, launch the Stop item from the Start Menu (IBM Rational Quality
Manger > IBM Rational AppScan Tester
Edition Adapter > Stop IBM Rational AppScan Tester Edition Adapter).
