If the site policy for using Rational ClearCase with Rational ClearQuest
Test Manager is to use a restricted environment, the Administrator for
Rational® ClearQuest® Test Manager
must perform these tasks:
- Create all Eclipse projects for testing and provide instructions to users
to import the Eclipse test projects into their local Eclipse workspaces.
- Create all file locations from the administrator's Rational ClearQuest Eclipse
client desktop.
- Associate Rational ClearCase® views
to access the file locations based on local views on the administrator's desktop.
- Use the Capture Configuration Specification or Capture
Stream Name option for all relevant iterations from the administrator's
desktop to restrict access of the file locations to Rational ClearCase views
that are identical to the administrator's views.
- Instruct users that when executing a configured test case or test suite
record to not override the message that indicates the view's config spec or
stream does not match the captured view. Instead, users must locate the associated
view association in the Rational ClearCase View
Associations view on their desktops and, for base Rational ClearCase dynamic
views, select the Configure Configuration Specification option,
or for UCM, manually create a view with an identical stream name.
The behavior when using a Rational ClearCase Remote Client view
is different. Before you associate a file location with the view, right-click
the file location and select Connect to CCRC. Specify
your ClearCase user ID and password, and the ClearCase server URL. You can
now associate your Rational ClearCase Remote Client view
with the file location. Each time you restart your Rational ClearQuest Test
Manager client you must login to Rational ClearCase by
right-clicking the file location and selecting Connect to CCRC before
you can perform operations involving test assets stored in Rational ClearCase.
