Test Environment and Lab Resources
One answer
Test Environment is the description of lab resources which can be as generic or as specific as you need. It does not tie to the actual lab resources. For example, if you need two machines for your test:
My test env:
- Window Server 2008 Enterprise + 4GB memory + WAS 7.0
- DB2
If you submit a Lab Request with this test environment, the Lab Admin will assign actual lab resources that fit the description. The DB2 machine may be a Linux VM with DB2 7.0. The next time you request the same test environment, you might get a Solaris box with DB2 9.0.
