Configuring Rational Quality Manager 3.0 to work with RequisitePro or Rational Requirements Composer

Configure Rational® Quality Manager 3.0 so that it works with RequisitePro® or Rational Requirements Composer.

About this task

Rational Quality Manager 3.0 does not provide native requirement support. If you want requirement support, you must provide a requirement management tool. These links show how to configure Rational Quality Manager 3.0 to work with RequisitePro or Rational Requirements Composer. Since Rational Quality Manager requires these steps, the Rational Connector for SAP Solution Manager also does. This configuration must be done before a Blueprint push that includes requirements.

Important: When you create a Blueprint push for Rational Quality Manager, you must provide Process Roles. Click the project area, in the Member section, select the Add user icon, and enter the Team member and Team contributor. Click Action Process Roles (Team member and Team contributor). The Process Roles are added and you can proceed with your Blueprint push.

Procedure

  1. If you are using RequisitePro, see Integrating with Rational RequisitePro.
    Restriction: If you are doing a RequisitePro integration, you must provide Rational Quality Manager and the Rational Connector for SAP Solution Manager the exact same URL or the integration does not work properly. In general, when you install products you have the choice of using either an IP address or a host name. Whatever choice an administrator makes when installing the product, the same choice must be made within the Rational Connector configurations. Either use an IP address in both places or a host name in both places. The IP address or host name must match exactly.
  2. If you are using Rational Requirements Composer, see Managing requirements with the Requirements Management application.
