Answer / bindhu
Quality Center is the advanced version of Test Director. There is no much
difference between QC and TD. In QC we have one extra tab called Dashboard
which is used to prepare graph. All the other features are same.

Hi All, Im currently getting to grips with the Document Generator in Test Director and have a query. We use TD to link requirements to test cases and I am attempting to produce a report which lists the requirement and the test case it is linked to. I cant see a way to do this as the test case link info resides on the Coverage page and it appears the only field available to display for requirements reports within document generator as those on the 'details' tab. Any tips?
Can we also write test cases in test director instead of excel or word if yes, how?
What is the main purpose to storing requirement in TD?
