Managing functional test projects
This section
describes how you can manage your test assets with functional test
projects.
- Managing functional test projects
A functional test project stores application test assets such as scripts, object maps, verification point baseline files, and script templates. You must create a functional test project before you can record scripts. - Functional Test projects
A Functional Test project stores application test assets such as scripts, object maps, verification point baseline files, and script templates. You must create a Functional Test project before you can record scripts. - Creating a functional test project
You must create a new project or connect to an existing project before you record a new script. - Adding a functional test project to a solution
If you want use an existing functional test project, you must add it to a solution before you can record scripts. - Removing a functional test project from a solution
Removing a project from a solution does not remove any files from the file system. - Functional Test projects and Rational projects
When you create a Functional Test project, you can use the project stand-alone, or associate it with a Rational® project to take advantage of the HCL OneTest™ UI integration features with TestManager if you have TestManager installed. - Associating a functional test project with a Rational project
If you want to use the Rational TestManager to manage your tests, you must associate a Functional Test project with a Rational project. - Disassociating a functional test project from a Rational project
If you no longer want to associate a functional test project to a Rational project, you can disassociate it from a Rational project. - Creating a Rational project
When you create a Functional Test project, you can use the project stand-alone, or associate it with a Rational project to take advantage of the HCL OneTest UI integration features with TestManager. If you want to associate a Functional Test project with a Rational project, you must create a Rational project to store your test assets. - Viewing TestManager properties of a project
If you associate a Functional Test project with the current Rational project, information about the Rational project and TestManager script source name and data path appear on the TestManager Property Page. - Solution explorer
The Solution Explorer, which is the right pane of the Visual Studio .NET window, provides an organized view of your projects and their files. - Creating a new functional test folder
You can create folders to organize items in the Solution Explorer. - Exporting functional test project items
You can export project items such as scripts, test object maps, Java™ files or Visual Basic files, datasets and application visuals to another functional test project. - Importing functional test project items
You can import project items such as scripts, test object maps, Java files or Visual Basic files, and datasets into a Functional Test project. - Managing functional test projects
