answer

Answer Posted / nagamani

1. What is meant by test lab in Quality Centre?
Test lab is a part of Quality Centre where we can execute
our test on different cycles creating test tree for each
one of them. We need to add test to these test trees from
the tests, which are placed under test plan in the project.
Internally Quality Centre will refer to this test while
running then in the test lab.

2. Can you map the defects directly to the requirements(Not
through the test cases) in the Quality Centre?
In the following methods is most likely to used in this
case:
Create your Req.Structure
Create the test case structure and the test cases
Map the test cases to the App.Req
Run and report bugs from your test cases in the test lab
module.

The database structure in Quality Centre is mapping test
cases to defects, only if you have created the bug from
Application. test case may be we can update the mapping by
using some code in the bug script module(from the customize
project function), as per as i know, it is not possible to
map defects directly to an requirements.

3. how do you run reports from Quality Centre. Does any one
have good white paper or articles?
This is how you do it
1. Open the Quality Centre project

test scripts

contained total 8 steps)
2. The test cases will be loaded in the test plan module
3. Once the execution is started. We move the test cases
from test plan tab to the test lab module.
4. In test lab, we execute the test cases and put as pass
or fail or incomplete. We generate the graph in the test
lab for daily report and sent to the on site (where ever
you want to deliver)

defect module. when raising the defects, attach the defects
with the screen shot.

9. Difference between Web Inspect-QA Inspect?
QA Inspect finds and prioritizes security vulnerabilities
in an entire web application or in specific usage scenarios
during testing and presents detail information and
remediation advise about each vulnerability.
Web Inspect ensures the security of your most critical
information by identifying known and unknown
vulnerabilities within the web application. With web
Inspect, auditors, compliance officers and security experts
can perform security assessments on a web enabled
application. Web inspect enables users to perform security
assessments for any web application or web service,
including the industry leading application platforms.
