Migrating from a previous version

The current version of Rational® Test RealTime is capable of importing from Rational® Test RealTime v2001A or from any of the following legacy ATTOL Testware products.

  • ATTOL UniTest

  • ATTOL SystemTest

  • ATTOL Coverage

Files from later versions of the product are directly compatible with the current version Rational® Test RealTime.

Workspaces and projects

Some earlier versions of the product used the concept of workspaces instead of sub-projects. When opening an older project that contains workspaces, these are automatically converted into sub-projects in the current version of the product.

Migrating target deployment ports

See Updating a Target Deployment Port for details about upgrading and customizing target deployment ports (TDPs).

Migrating from ATTOL UniTest

Test RealTime v2002 and later provides an Import function to import .prj, .cmp, and .ses files from ATTOL UniTest and Test RealTime v2001A. See Importing v2001 Component Testing Files for more information.

Migrating from ATTOL SystemTest

There is no import facility for ATTOL SystemTest files. The recommended approach is to manually import the existing source and .pts test script files into a Test RealTime project with the System Testing Wizard.

Project files created in ATTOL SystemTest Studio are not compatible with Rational® Test RealTime.

To import an ATTOL SystemTest project into the product:

  1. Use the Activity Wizard to create a new workspace and System Testing test node.

    When prompted, specify your existing source files.

  2. Follow the indications until the System Testing Wizard appears.
  3. In the System Testing Wizard, clear the Create a new test script option and click the ... button to import an existing .pts test script. Click Add to add the .h interface file.
  4. Follow the standard System Testing instructions to configure and deploy the Virtual Testers.

Migrating from ATTOL Coverage

The Code Coverage Viewer in Test RealTime can open and display .fdc and .tio files from ATTOL Coverage versions.

To open a Code Coverage Report:

  1. From the File menu, select Open.
  2. In the File type list, select Code Coverage Viewer files (*.fdc,*.tio).
  3. Locate and select the .fdc and .tio files from the older version.
  4. Click OK.
