User settings and information retrieval

This topic describes how Sprinter saves your settings and configurations, and how it applies this information the next time you run Sprinter.

Saved settings and configurations

When you run Sprinter, your settings and configurations are saved in the OpenText Application Quality Management project, per-user (as unique information for each unique user in each project). Additionally, it is saved to your local computer, per Windows user profile. If you do not have an OpenText Application Quality Management license, the information is only saved on your local computer per Windows user profile.

The next time you run Sprinter, it applies these saved settings and configurations, if they are available. Some information is saved and applied per-user and some information is saved and applied depending on the application defined for your test.

Project user information

The tables below describe how the OpenText Application Quality Management user information is saved and applied per project. Some user information is relevant for Power Mode features only, as indicated by the Power Mode icon .
