Teststand Clearcase

[glennjammin]

I need to interface Teststand with Clearcase Source Control.

The problems are:

1. How do you setup the search directories?
2. Our clearcase setup requires everything on a network location
   1. Is there a way to transfer it to a local location then transfer it back?
3. Are there any plugins to clearcase that help with interfacing to it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi glennjammin,

In regards to question one, you can save the files contained in the workspace and the code modules called from the sequence files in a directory structure such that TestStand can access them via a relative path from the workspace file and sequence files.  As for question two, this answer is dependent on how you are using ClearCase.  Are you using the Snapshot or the Dynamic view?  Lastly, there is no plugin to ClearCase for TestStand.

This link also may be helpful to you as you start using ClearCase with TestStand.  It gives some good information about using TestStand with Source Control Software.

I found a solution.  Well my coworker found the solution.  You need to create a snapshot view in Clearcase and open you workspace from the snapshot location. 

This will come up in TestStand with source control enabled and allow you to check out and check in your files within TestStand.  It even will check in/out your whole workspace if needed.  It works great!!!

Thanks for all the previous responses..
