This page provides guidance for the following:

Using Parasoft DTP you have the ability to manually create defects in Jama Connect from the Violations Explorer and Test Explorer views.

Associating Parasoft Projects with Jama Connect Projects

Associating a Parasoft project with a Jama Connect project enables you to create defects from the Violations or Test Explorer views that are linked to the correct project in Jama Connect. The association is also important when using the Sending Test Data to External System flow. You can associate multiple projects in DTP with a project in Jama Connect, but you cannot associate the same DTP project with more than one Jama Connect project.

  1. Click Create Project Association and choose a project from the DTP Project drop-down menu in the overlay. 
  2. Enter the name of a Jama Connect project in the External Project field and click Create to save the association.

Click the trash icon to remove a project association. Deleting the project association does not remove links from DTP explorer views to defects in Jama Connect. If an association is deleted and recreated later, existing links between violations and Jama Connect issues will be reactivated. 

You can reconfigure an existing association between DTP and Jama Connect projects:

  1. Click the pencil icon and choose either a different DTP project from the drop-down menu or specify the name of a different Jama Connect project in the External Project field.
  2. Click Save.
