Categories added to the Process Configuration source are missed
I need to add two Test Plan categories on RQM 4.0
The steps I followed were: 1) I created a development Project Area, Added the XML code below, inside the tag "<categories>" -belonging to the "initialization" section- and saved the Project Area. <category name="Functional Types of Test" scope="TestPlan"> <value name="Not Applicable"/> <value name="Audit and Controls" /> <value name="Conversion" /> <value name="(User) Documentation and Procedures" /> <value name="Error Handling" /> <value name="Function"/> <value name="Installation"/> <value name="Interface / Inter-system"/> <value name="Parallel"/> <value name="Regression"/> <value name="Transaction Flow"/> <value name="Usability"/> </category> <category name="Structural Types of Test" scope="TestPlan"> <value name="Not Applicable"/> <value name="Backup and Recovery"/> <value name="Contingency" /> <value name="Job Stream" /> <value name="Operational" /> <value name="Performance" /> <value name="Security"/> <value name="Stress / Volume"/> </category> 2) Extracted a process template from that project area. 3) Created a new project area using the new, recently created template. 4) Logged to the new project area, checked the "Project Properties" and created new test plans, but I was not able to see the new categories. Additional information: - The original process template I utilized already contains customized artifacts categories - This exact process was followed in order to modify a different project some time ago, and we succeeded. What am I missing? Why the same steps we utilized before are not successful now? Any ideas? Thanks in advance. |

Hi Andrea,
I used your XML piece to create a project area from where I extracted a process template to latter create a new project area based on it. The categories where copied successfully. Some thoughts: -Did you added the xml code to your project area process configuration** before initializing? (using option "I will review my process specification..." option on creation dialog) -In order to isolate, the categories were added to the original project area? (from where you extrated template) -Does your template have in links tab** the path "/process/templatization/categories"? **Only available from eclipse view. |
