The Table view displays a list of test assets in the form of a table, as shown in the following figure.
In the Table view you can display test assets for a particular test asset type by selecting the appropriate View command.
The Tree view displays a hierarchy of test plans and related assets, as shown in the following figure. Expand each test plan in the tree to view the test cases and requirements that are associated with each test plan. Continue expanding each node to view test scripts, requirements, and test execution records.
The Explorer view, like the Tree view, displays a list of test plans.
Select a test plan, and a panel opens to the right, showing the test cases and requirements associated with that test plan. As you click a test asset type, another panel opens to the right, showing the associated test assets.
In all three views, you can group test assets by one of the available categories, such as State, Product, Release, or Test Phase. To do so, simply click the down arrow and make a selection in the Group by field. The following example shows test plans grouped by Product in the Tree view.
You can narrow down the
list of test assets that are displayed to those assets that contain
specific text in their name or Summary section. To do so, type the
text in the Type Filter Text field (), as shown in the
following figure:
To re-display the full list of assets, just delete the text in the Type Filter Text field.
You can change between views by selecting one of the other view modes from the View as list at the top of each view window.
To set the default view:
All test assets are stored on the Rational Quality Manager Jazz server. When you choose to view test assets, the server sends your browser window one page of assets at a time. The remaining test assets are not displayed in your browser window until you request to view them. As a result, network traffic is managed more efficiently, and performance is enhanced.
You can control how many assets are displayed at one time with the Items per page list box. The choices in this list box vary, depending on the number of test assets in the project. If you have 10 or fewer assets of a particular asset type, all 10 are displayed on the page. At the opposite extreme, if you have more than 100 assets, you can view 10, 25, 50, or 100 items at a time. The following table lists the choices that you have:
Number of test assets | Choices in the Items per page list box |
---|---|
10 or less | Show All |
11-25 | Show All or 10 at a time |
26-99 | Show All, 10, 25, 50 |
100+ | 10, 25, 50, 100 |
