Creating a team space

To manage projects in the logical containers of IBM® Rational® Test Automation Server, you must create team spaces.

Before you begin

You must have been assigned the role of a server administrator of Rational® Test Automation Server.

About this task

As a server administrator, you can create multiple team spaces on Rational® Test Automation Server.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Rational® Test Automation Server.
    The Projects page of the initial team space is displayed.
  2. Click Dashboard.
    The Team Space Dashboard page is displayed.
  3. Click New team space.
    The New Team Space dialog box is displayed.
  4. Provide the name to the team space.
  5. Enter a name as a URL alias for the team space.
  6. Select an option to set the permissions to access the team space. You can select any one of the following options:
    • Permissive – When a team space is set as Permissive, the user gets the permissions automatically on sending the request to become a member of that team space.
    • Restrictive – When a team space is set as Restrictive, the Team Space Owner provides permission to the user to become a member of that team space.
      You can set the visibility mode of the Restrictive type team space as Public or Private.
      • The Public team space is visible to all users in the Team Space Dashboard.
      • The Private team space is visible only to the members of that team space in the Team Space Dashboard.
      Note: If you select the Restrictive type team space, then the default setting of the team space becomes Public.
  7. Provide a brief description of the team space.
  8. Select the owner of the team space from the list of users who accessed the application.

    The selected user is assigned the role of a Team Space Owner.

    Note: You can assign the Team Space Owner role to only one user while you create a team space.
  9. Click Create.
    The dashboard of the team space is displayed.

Results

You have created a team space.

If you are assigned the role of a Team Space Owner, then you can view the name of the team space that you created in the navigation pane.

If you assigned any other licensed user with the role of a Team Space Owner, then you can view the team space under the Other Team Spaces panel.

What to do next

You must configure the license for your team space. See Configuring licenses for team spaces .
