1. Select the desired suite and click the Add Property button.

2. In the Add Global wizard, choose Global Property> Database Account and click Finish. A Properties node displays and the Database Account panel displays in the right side of the GUI.
3. Specify the settings in the Database Account  panel as follows:
   1. If you want to change the default name, enter the new name in the Name field.

   2. Click the Add Property to All button (if you don’t click this button, the global properties you add will be ignored by the tools in the suite). Depending on what you select from the drop-down list, one of the following will occur:

      • If Use Shared Property Only is selected from the drop-down list, the corresponding tools in the suite will be able to only use the global property you added.

      If Use Local and Shared Properties is selected from the drop-down list, the corresponding tools in the Action suite will be able to use the global property you added and any properties configured within the individual tool itself.

   3. Configure the rest of the Database Account settings as needed.
      • If the account settings are stored in a file, select File then specify the path to that file.
        
        • To refresh/reload the file (e.g., if you edited it externally), click Refresh Configuration Settings.

      • If you want to specify the settings in this panel, enable Local and specify the driver settings. See 

        Database Configuration Parameters in SOAtest or Database Configuration Parameters in Virtualize for additional information

        • To export these values to a file, click Export Configuration Settings. Once the values are exported to a file, you can import the file through the File> Input File control (described above). This way, you won’t have to re-type the same values if you want to add this same account to a different suite. 

          Note that exported properties files contain the following properties:

          • driver
          • url
          • username
          • password
          • close.connection

          For example:

          version=1
driver=org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver
url=jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost/parabank username=sa
password=dGVzdA==
close.connection=true
