Running automatic command line test scripts in RQM

Hi all,
From the documentation I understood you can execute a 'command line' test script.
We have a self-developed automatic scripts build with a self developed tool where we can execute each test with a simple command line batch file. can I use RQM to run these kind of tests. if so how can it be done? what configuration is needed ?.
I saw an 'adaptor' configuration but couldn't really understand what that means.
Does anyone have experience on this matter ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
All agents that will be used to run your tests should be running the Command Line Adapter. The adapter ships with RQM. Pull it from the install directory and put it on your agents.

Set up a shared location that contains your batch files for your tests.
Refer to:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_make_external_available.html
and:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_create_reference_external_resource.html

Create Test Scripts of type "Command Line" that reference your now-shared batch files.

You can then run those like you would any other test type.

Hope that helps.
John
