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. You must create a new
functional test project or connect to an existing functional test
project before you record a new script.
Procedure
- From the Functional Tester menu, click .
- In the Project name field, type
the name of the new project.
Names for functional test
projects cannot contain the following characters: \ / : * ? " <
> | ( ) or a space.
- In the Project location field,
type the data path for this functional test project, or click Browse to
select a path.
If you use ClearCase®,
you must create the functional test project in a ClearCase snapshot
or dynamic view. You can add
the project to ClearCase later. If you do
not create a functional test project in a ClearCase view,
you can share the project by
moving it to a ClearCase view and adding it to source
control.
- Optional: Select Add the project
to Source Control to use ClearCase.
- Optional: If TestManager is installed, select
Associate the project with current Rational Project to
run Functional Tester scripts from TestManager and use TestManager
to analyze test results.
Note: If the
Associate
the project with current Rational Project check box is
unavailable, you must
create
a Rational project and log in to the project before you can
associate a functional test project with a Rational project.
To use the TestManager features, Rational Administrator
and TestManager must be installed. You must create a Rational project,
and log into TestManager.
- Click Finish.
