Creating a Rational project

When you create a Functional Test project, you can use the project stand-alone, or associate it with a Rational® project to take advantage of the Rational® Functional Tester integration features with TestManager. If you want to associate a Functional Test project with a Rational® project, you must create a Rational® project to store your test assets.

Before you begin

You must install Rational® Administrator and Rational® TestManager before you create a Rational® project.

Procedure

  1. Open the Rational® Administrator by clicking Start > Programs > Rational Software > Rational Administrator.
  2. Click File > New Project.
  3. Enter the project name and the location (in Universal Naming Convention [UNC] format, if the project will be shared) of the directory for the project.

    The following is an example of a possible path name (in UNC format):\\computer_name\directory\sub_directory

    where subdirectory is an empty directory.

  4. Continue through the New Project wizard.
