Option 1:  Project Area or Component Template

How to:

1. In the current project go to Project or Component Properties > Templates
2. Create New
3. Click on data which you want to copy (if you click on Artifact then all artifact will be part of the template
4. Create a new project area or component and use a template for creation (template must be downloaded and uploaded if you are porting to a new server)

Advantages:

• Works also for porting to a new server
• Links between artifacts are kept
• project area properties are automatically saved
• Are links within the project area/component are kept

This extension will convert your text in HTML format to rich text. Additionally, the extension transforms the content to value compatible with saving in RDNG

The Swiss Society of Systems Engineering (SSSE) is a non-profit organisation established in 2011 by a group of like-minded Engineers, working across various industries. The goal of SSSE is practicing and promoting Systems Engineering (SE) principles.

Softacus - a Gold Sponsor of SWISSED19

For a second year, Softacus was a sponsor of SWISSED - an Annual Symposium of the Swiss Systems Engineering Society, presenting IBM Watson IOT Continues Engineering products like the Door Next Generation, Rational Team Concert, Rational Quality Manager and Rapsody.

This year, the event was held on 2. September in "Lake Side-Business & Lifestyle" congress center next to the lake of Zurich.

Unit testing is the first step towards delivering quality software. Junit is one of the tools used by developers to perform unit testing activities. This article explains the procedure to manage & execute JUnit test scenarios from Engineering Test Management.

The Eggplant Functional IBM Rational Quality Manager Adapter features a quick integration and return of results. Download this adapter and configure this integration to execute an Eggplant Functional test suite from IBM Rational Quality Manager and return the results to a fine-grained level. With this adapter, you can incorporate Eggplant Functional into your continuous integration setup.

You do not need to purchase a separate license from Eggplant to download and configure the Eggplant.

• Test the code of smart products, which might have hundreds of thousands or millions of lines of code, for defects.
• Reduce the cost of code defects by identifying them earlier in the development process.
• Mitigate increasing product complexity by tackling quality challenges earlier in the development process.
• Improve efficiency by breaking down the divisions between engineering departments.

• Enables traceability of requirements through test.
• Improves collaboration between product development and quality assurance teams.
• Improves testing efficiency by integrating world-class testing technologies.
• Enhances quality management through dashboarding of test execution.

The purpose of this article is to make an overview of options you have when you have a need for reuse of artifacts like requirements, specifications, contracts or event full lifecycle management projects in IBM Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management Platform (IBM Jazz).

This article will be improved several times but the intention is not to describe everything since this is done in the consulting engagement.
