Associating Parasoft Projects with TeamForge Projects

Create links between Parasoft and TeamForge projects so that defects created in the Violations or Test Explorer view are created in the correct project in TeamForge. The association is also important when using the the Sending Test Data to External Application flow.

...

You can associate multiple projects in DTP with a project in TeamForge, but you cannot associate the same DTP project with more than one TeamForge project.

Enabling the Traceability Report

You can configure DTP to generate widgets and reports that help you demonstrate traceability between the work items stored in TeamForge and the test, static analysis, and build review data sent to DTP from Parasoft tools (C/C++test, dotTEST, Jtest, SOAtest). 

...

Use DTP Extension Designer to deploy the External Application Traceability Report and the Sending Test Data to External Application flow to your environment. Verify that DTP is connected to TeamForge as described in the Connecting DTP to TeamForge Server section before deploying the artifact.

The first step is to install the Traceability Pack. The artifact is a collection of configuration files and assets that enable traceability.

  1. Choose Extension Designer from the settings menu (gear icon).
  2. Click the Configuration  tab to open Artifact Manager.
  3. Click Upload Artifact  and browse for the external-app-traceability-report-<version>.zip archive (also see Downloading and Installing Artifacts).
  4. Click Install and a collection of assets and configuration files for enabling traceability will be installed.

teamForge.defect.status

Specifies the status of defects that are created in TeamForge when creating work items in the DTP Violations Explorer and Test Explorer views.

Default: Open 

teamForge.tasks.status

Specifies the status of tasks that are created in TeamForge when creating work items in the DTP Violations Explorer and Test Explorer views.

Default: Not Started 

teamForge.workItemType.defectSpecifies the type of work item to create in TeamForge when creating new defects from the DTP Violation Explorer and Test Explorer. This enables you to associate custom defect trackers you may have configured in TeamForge with work items created from DTP. 

By default, the property is not set. As a result, defect work items created in DTP are associated with task work items in TeamForge.

teamForge.workItemType.taskSpecifies the type of work item to create in TeamForge when creating new tasks from the DTP Violation Explorer and Test Explorer. This enables you to associate custom task trackers you may have configured in TeamForge with work items created from DTP. 

By default, the property is not set. As a result, task work items created in DTP are associated with task work items in TeamForge.

teamforgeIssueUrl

Specifies the URL template for linking work items created in the DTP Violation Explorer and Test Explorer to work items in TeamForge.

Default:

teamforgeIssueUrl=<TEAMFORGE_URL>/sf/go<ID> 

teamForge.trackerType.requirement.name

Specifies the name of TeamForge work item types that should take the role of requirements in Parasoft. The work items are also used in the Traceability Report.

Default: Stories 

teamForge.trackerType.test.name

Specifies the name of TeamForge work item types that should take the role of tests in Parasoft. The work items are also used in the Traceability Report.

Default: Tests 

teamForge.trackerType.test.status.pass

Specifies the test run status name in TeamForge to assign to passing test results sent from DTP. This enables you to set custom statuses you may have configured in TeamForge for test results in DTP.

Default: Passed 

teamForge.trackerType.test.status.fail

Specifies the test run status name in TeamForge to assign to passing test results sent from DTP. This enables you to set custom statuses you may have configured in TeamForge for test results in DTP.

Default: Failed

TeamForge work items are assets that represent a story, defect, or set of tests. Annotate the test code executed by your Parasoft tool with the TeamForge work item ID using @test or @req annotation. By default, the @test annotation will associate Parasoft tests with TeamForge tests and the @req annotation will associate Parasoft tests with TeamForge stories (see Advanced Configuration for instructions on how to change these settings). Refer to your Parasoft tool documentation for details on adding associations and the TeamForge documentation for information about getting work item IDs. The following diagram shows how you could implement an automated infrastructure for integrating Parasoft into your TeamForge environment:
