Hi,
We are currently investigating the possibility to import Test Plans and Test Results in DOORS, in order to ensure traceability with the requirements. I have looked at the Test Tracking tool included in DOORS, and it is simple enough for us to use.
The problem I have is with the capture of the test results after each test run. Since we have a large number of test cases, we cannot enter the results manually. The test results are today contained in numerous Excel files, generated by several teams, at different stages of the test run. The typical test engineer does not know the DOORS client (they use the web interface to consult requirements), so it would be quite heavy to ask them to import their results through the client.
So, I am looking for some kind of mechanism to enable automatic imports of the test results, with minimal intervention for the test engineer. Any idea or experience to share ?
Best regards,
Servanne.

If you want to automate this, using DXL to drive that would be possible. If you want to import xl sheets, it will update the modules content and write chngs to the history files as you do that. Perhaps build a DXL menu entry that would go to specific shared folder location, allow choice of sheet to import and then import that data into the targeted module to update the test results.
Otherwise, you might consider using the Web Access client that could be used as the UI for testers - by limiting the views they see and allow updating of results as they are executing them.
