td.LISTS Table
Description
System and custom lists and folder trees.
Remarks
Test plan folders are stored in the ALL_LISTS Table.
Folder structures are recreated with a self-join of LISTS parent and LISTS child where child.LS_FATHER_ID = parent.LS_ITEM_ID. For top level nodes, LS_FATHER_ID = 0.
In addition, each child node inherits the LS_ABSOLUTE_PATH of its parent node and appends three more characters. For example, the children of the node with path AAAAAA have paths AAAAAAAA, AAAAAAAAB, AAAAAAAAC, and so on.
The characters V and W are not used.
