Using the Test Manager view to associate a child to parent in a test plan hierarchy

In the Planning page of the Test Manager view you can make the following associations:
Based on the type of child record, the association to the parent is made from a different location in the Test Manager view. The general rule for associating children with parents is when a record at a lower position in the test planning hierarchy is created, the association to the immediate predecessor is made by the Test Manager view.
  1. To create an child-to-parent associations using a Rational® ClearQuest® Client or Rational ClearQuest Client for Eclipse:
    1. From the Planning page, select a test plan record and click New Test Plan. This action creates a parent/child relationship between the test plans. This relationship is displayed in the Parent Plan list on the new test plan record.
    2. From the Planning page of the Test Manager view, select a test plan record and click New Test Case. This action creates a parent/child relationship between the test plan and test case. This relationship is displayed in the Test Plan list on the test case record.
    3. From the Planning page of the Test Manager view, select a test case record and click Add Configured Test Cases. This action creates a parent/child relationship between the test case and the configured test case Records. This relationship is displayed in the Test Case list on the new configured test case records.
  2. If you must change the test plan hierarchy that is created in the Test Manager view, you can modify each of these records (test plan, test case, and configured test case) to change the associated parent.
