Issue while Linking a Test Case in RQM with a requirement in RRC
We are using version 4.0.3 of rational quality manager and rational requirement management. We require to link the test case with requirement during the upload. Please share solution if anyone has tried. Please find below options we have tried:
> We are unable to use the check box Link to existing RM requirement present in Rational Quality Manager Excel/Word Importer as the number of requirements are 5000+.
> We are looking if there is a parameter in config which we require to set. Below is the config file which we are using
// Defines the first row containing a Test Script Step
testscript.XLSStartRow=4
// Defines the delimeter between rows
testscript.XLSDelimeter=\n
// Defines the cell containing the Test Script Name
testscript.dc:title=C1
// Defines the cell containing the link to the Test Case
testscript.testcase=LinkExisting(D1)
// Defines the type of each Test Script Step
testscript.steps.type="execution"
// Defines the column containing the Step's Description
testscript.steps.description=B
// Defines the column containing the Step's Expected Results
testscript.steps.expectedResult=C
// Defines the unique External ID which is used to determine which record to create/update in Rational
testscript.XLSArtifactID="Test Script for " & C1
where D1 = urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:<Test case #>
We have tried adding below code after referring below link, But requirement are not mapped to the test case.
testcase.requirement=Link(A)

You did not mention whether you have done manually mapping between test case and the existing requirements.
see the below details:

The problem could be that you have 5000+ requirements, which exceeds the limitation and would lead to timeout problem as per the above article.

Hello Yang,
Currently, you can only do mapping via GUI instead of using cfg file, I understand that could be a problem due to the limitation of large number of requirements. Using config file to linking test case to existing requirements is a popular enhancement request:

Please comment there to urge the requested feature to be implemented.
