RPT Adapter
I've linked my RPT to RQM (I'm still on RQM 2.0.x) through the RPT Adapter
and defined some test script samples to use the RPT Adapter
When I run (start) a test script, one of the parameters I can specify is a "Test Environment" - Not clear to me how this information is "consumed" in the RPT Adapter and how I can take advantage of it in my RPT Test Scripts.
thanks in advance

The test environment is an attribute on the Test Case Execution Record
that you are running, that describes the environment hosting the
application that you are testing. This information is used within RQM
to keep track of your testing efforts and what environment is being
tested. You can filter the test case execution records by environment
to see how such testing is going and environment also shows up in some
of the reports.
However, this information is not passed to the RPT test script so
there's no way to use this in your RPT script. In fact, currently there
is no way to pass any data from RQM to your RPT test script. In RQM
3.0.1 RQM introduced execution variables that allows arbitrary data to
be passed to a test script. However RPT has yet to adopt the execution
variables so you still can't pass any data from RQM to RPT. I encourage
you to open an enhancement request.
