Reusing Test Scripts?


Fabiano Pereira (1165) | asked Dec 17 '09, 11:14 a.m.
Hi all,

is there a way to reuse test scripts in a easier way than snapshots and the Test Case Design? I was trying to find a simple "Copy Test Script" function but couldn't find in the version I'm using, v2.0.1.
If anybody there has any suggestion on how to improve the test case reuse process, I'd be glad.

Thanks,
Fabiano

If you are looking to copy test scripts and cases, the RQMCopyUtility may accomplish that for you. I believe it will do a "deep copy" of an entity, so if you copy a test case which includes link to test scripts, it should create a copy with the same links, essentially reusing your test scripts.

Correct - the RQMCopyUtility (command line application available on "all downloads") is currently the only way to achieve what you're looking for.
I assume you meant to say that you're on 2.0.0.1, not 2.0.1. 2.0.1 will be out in March and will include copy functionality directly in the UI. Keep an eye out.
