Adapter library
Hi,
I am currently checking the possibilities to write a custom execution adapter. I have found the CommandLineAdapter that ships with RQM. It is based on the adapter library (com.ibm.rqm.adapter.library). The CommandLineAdapter comes with its sources but unfortunatly the adapter library does not. There is no documentation included either and I also could not find it online.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the adapter library to write your own adapter? If yes, under what terms and conditions (there is not license mentioned)? Does anyone know where I can find more information or some docs on how to integrate a test tool into RQM writing a custom execution adapter?
Thanks in advance!

The adapter library used by the command-line adapter is not public. Typically custom execution adapters are done via service agreements with IBM partners. You should voice the need for this custom adapter to your RQM sales rep. Also, it wouldn't hurt to create an enhancement request against RQM project via below URL to ask for the adapter library to be made public.
It is possible now to develop your custom adapter to integrate with RQM with the release of RQM v401. See RQM Test Automation Adapter API for more details
