"Get started with Rational Team Concert" Tutorial
![]()
FYI: I have been through this tutorial several times, and I am finding several places in this tutorial that what is being instructed is not accurate. The process of switching Repository Connections between the BuildUser and the student who is taking the tutorial, is causing some situations in the tutorial to be wrong.
For example, in Lesson 8, in the "Delivering the build script" section, the tutorial references the "Team 1 Build Workspace" and the Unresolved folder, however, that workspace has NOT been loaded per the tutorial. There is no Unresolved folder in that workspace. This issue, which I got around by manually copying the build.xml file into the workspace, then caused other inconsistencies, such as the (Work Items "None included") situation in the 1st build Additional issues and problems are evident w/ the tutorial, but no time to explain them all at the moment, and not sure if any response would be given. Does Jazz have any suggestion or plans to udate, as the tutorial would be an excellent resource for learning RTC if the tutorial was completely accurate. Trying to teach RTC to a newbie w/ an in-accurate tutorial is difficult. |

The build lesson (now Lesson 7) was updated and the "Delivering the build script" section should be correct. I'm not sure if you're finding some of the errors in 3.0, but for the 2.0 version, I've created a work item to update the tutorial https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Rational%20Team%20Concert#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=149704 |

If you are referrring to the tutorial in the online help system, there is definitely inaccurate information in the current version of the online help, in particular I found a cpl of issues with the admin commands ex. repotools.
I tried to add a comment a few weeks ago but I was frustrated with the inaccuracies and held the comment back because it was more vent than constructive. THe only other time prior I tried to add a comment it didn't save. Have you tried to log comments against the specific sections of the tutorial that are incorrect? |

You should be able to log defects against documentation here on jazz.net. If you have a minute to log them, that will really help to get them fixed. anthony |
