What task unblocks test cases when RTC defects are resolved
![]()
We have our RQM 2.0.1 ifix3 server integrated with our RTC 2.0.02 server, so that we can raise defects in RTC.
If we create a blocking defect from RQM, the test case will remain in a blocked state until the developer/tester fixes the problem and resolves the defect on RTC. Once resolved, a task runs periodically on RTC or RQM (not sure which), to communicate with the RQM server to unblock the test case. What is this task ? where does it run ? and can I change the frequency, it seems to run about once a day. Thanks D |

Its the value of the following tasks that run on the RQM server:
RQM Change Management Integration> com.ibm.rqm.defects.service.internal.r> Delay (seconds) Test Execution Component> com.ibm.rqm.execution.service.internal.sync.DefectTrackingTask> Defect Tracking Task Fixed Delay (seconds) The default value is 500 seconds for each however in your case the admin may have set it to much longer. The following talks about the former task: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_config_rtc_defects_overview.html Hope the helps. |

ERRATA:
It should have read: "RQM Change Management Integration> com.ibm.rqm.defects.service.internal. Delay (seconds) Test Execution Component> com.ibm.rqm.execution.service.internal.sync.DefectTrackingTask> Defect Tracking Task Fixed Delay (seconds)" |

I'm sorry for retrieving this old topic but:
If a developer resolves a defect, it doesn't mean that the test case is unblocked immediately. Only when a new build is created and delivered to the test environment, the test case is unblocked and can be rerun. Is there a way for RQM to take this into account? Thanks!

Check System Properties-> Execution Preferences.
You will find option for Unblock the Test Execution Record on closing all the associated plan items. Unblock the Test Execution Record on availability of a build containing workitem fixes. -|- Pramod Chandoria |
