Correlating Code During Implementation

Check-in Correlations

If code is not correlated to a task with associated requirements or defects, then the related requirement or defect should be specified upon check-in.

Correlating SOAtest Tests

The Requirements and Notes tab of SOAtest’s test suite configuration panel allows you to identify requirements/tasks/bugs associated with the tests in the test suite. The requirements you define will appear in Structure reports (and also in Report Center), allowing managers and reviewers to determine whether the specified test requirements were completed.

...

1. Select a node from the test suite tree within the Requirements and Notes tab.
2. Click the Add button.
3. In the Type box, select a requirement type. DTP will use this information to associate the test suite’s test cases to the specified element type. For instance, if it is associated with a specific bug, information about the test case’s status will be considered for Report Center’s bugs graphs. Custom tags can be added as described in Using Custom Defect/Issue Tracking TagsAssociating Tests with Development Artifacts. Default tags are:
   • @pr for bugs.
   • @fr for feature requests.
   • @req for requirements.
   • @task for tasks.
   • @test for tests
4. Enter an ID and a URL for the requirement and click OK.
   
   
   
   The requirement you defined will display in the Requirements table within the Requirements and Notes tab and correspond to the test suite node you selected and all of its child nodes.
5. (Optional) If you want to enter notes for the test suite, enter a description in the Notes field. This option is useful in that it enables you to view a quick description of the test suite purpose.

Using Custom Defect/Issue Tracking Tags

Anchor
Using Custom Defect/Issue Tracking Tags Using Custom Defect/Issue Tracking Tags

You can customize the tags your team uses to associate a test case with a work item from your ALM, defects, or requirements tracking system (e.g, codeBeamer, Jira, TeamForge, VersionOne, etc.). This allows you to configure the tag to match the language that your organization uses to refer to defects. For instance, some organizations use the term "PR" to refer to a defect. Others use "defect" and would thus prefer to use a custom @defect tag rather than the default @pr tag.

...

The  tags listed here will be available in SOAtest when you configure the Requirements Tracking options in the test suite editor (when you go to Add a new requirement correlation). See Correlating SOAtest Associating Tests with Development Artifacts for details.

Linking to Correlated Artifacts in Reports

If you want SOAtest reports to link to correlated artifacts, you need to specify URL templates that explain how links to these artifacts are formatted. To do this:
