Considerations when Converting OpenText Application Quality Management Manual Tests to Components

Entity

Considerations
Parameters

  • Test parameter names may contain special characters that are not permitted in a component parameter name. Such characters are replaced with an underscore (_) when the test is converted.
  • If a parameter name does not start with an English letter, the letter p is added as a prefix to the name when the test is converted.
  • The parameter default value is copied from the test parameter.
  • The parameter description is copied from the test parameter.
Steps

In the Manual Implementation tab of the new component:

  • Step names and expected results are copied from the steps in the test.
  • Parameter names may be changed during the conversion process. Parameter names in the step descriptions are changed accordingly.
  • Certain test steps may call another test. If a component step is of type "call to", it is copied as a regular step with the step name "Call". The description is displayed as "Call <linked test name>".
Other

Attachments, linked defects, and the test history are not copied over to the converted component.

User interface elements are described below (unlabeled elements are shown in angle brackets):

UI Element

Description

Refresh. Updates the data in the tree.

New Folder. Opens the New Component Folder dialog box, enabling you to add a folder under a selected folder in the component tree.

Syntax exceptions: The folder name cannot contain two consecutive semicolons (;) or include any of the following characters:  \ * ^

Find. Searches the component tree by name. Type the name of the folder or test in the Find box and click Find. OpenText Application Quality Management highlights the first entity in the tree that contains the search string.

<component tree>

Displays the components in a hierarchical format that can be collapsed and expanded.
New Component Name

Enables you to enter a new name for a converted component. The default is the name of the test. This field is mandatory.

Note: If a component with the same name already exists in the destination folder, a suffix is automatically added to the name to create a unique name within the folder (for example _Copy_1).

Available when: Either a single test is selected in the test plan tree
Include tests in subfolders

Enables you to convert all the tests in the selected folder and all of its subfolders simultaneously. If the number of tests is large, this action may take some time.

Available when: A folder is selected in the test plan tree
