I've only one HW for Rational Functional Tester.
I've to run functional test from different Project Area. Is possible to have multiple instant of RFT adaptor that point at different Project area? If yes, what I've to do? Ciao |

Hi Paul, In RQM 3.0.1 we introduced something called execution variables: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0m1/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/c_execvar_overview.html These variables can be initialized at different levels of the test hierarchy (script,case,suite). RFT will support passing RQM execution variables to RFT scripts in it's soon to release 8.2.1 release. At which time you can use this to have a single RFT script that behaves differently based on the execution variables defined at the test case level. Additionally, the variable values can be specified when you start the RFT run, so for each run you can pass different values to the RFT script without having to modify the RQM script or test case. |
You can not run RFT Adapter to connect multiple project area in parallel from same machine. You can switch between project area by stopping and starting.
I understand what you are asking about and I had similar vision in back of mind. At this point You may consider creating RFE for it. -|- Pramod Chandoria |

Hi. I have a single RFT script used by many test cases, but with different script arguments each time.
Based on my evaluation so far, it appears that the script arguments can be different for each test case/test script link. I'd like to confirm that the RFT script need only be imported once - that there need only be one instance of the script in RQM. I had expected that I'd need a different copy of the RFT script in RQM, for each different set of script arguments but this doesn't appear to be the case. Thanks. |
Hi. I have a single RFT script used by many test cases, but with different script arguments each time. Out of curiosity how would you achieve this (different script arguments for the same script from different test cases) ?. The script arguments are associated with the script so you wouldn't be able to have different arguments for each case/script tuple (other than by having different scripts for each test case - i.e. the same script with different arguments each time - as per your original expectation). As far as I can see anyway. |

Hi Paul,
Firstly, I posted this in totally the wrong place! Secondly, I didn't achieve it. I thought the TestManager migration tool had achieved it but it turns out of course that the script arguments kept being overwritten and all but the last ones didn't survive the migration. I now have a few hundred test cases linked to the one test script, all bar one with the wrong script arguments. My customer will have to copy the RQM RFT script as many times as is required. Regards, Dave. |
