Creating Test Repository

The test repository resides on the PUM Source. In order to create the repository, you must first identify the components or tests that you want to track in the target databases in a project and then upload the metadata to the PUM Source. The test projects apply across all your target databases.

Test information is uploaded to the PUM Source in Change Assistant. Depending on the type of test project uploaded the following occurs:

  • PTF Tests

    Change Assistant will read the test metadata and determine all of the components associated with the test. The test information metadata is uploaded to the test repository by test name. The test object reference will display the all the tests associated with the component.

  • Components

    For customer who do not use PTF, you can create projects that contains components. The test information (component names) is uploaded to the test repository using the project name. The test name will be the same as the project name.

Note:

It is not necessary to use PTF in order to use the test repository. Test impact is calculated based on components.

  1. Create a project on the customer database that includes your components or tests.

    Note:

    You can create as many test projects as required.

    There are several methods available to create the test project:

    • Create the test project in Application Designer by adding the tests or components to the project.

    • Create the project in Change Assistant using the Create New Database Project option in Upload Customer database to Image.

  2. (Optional).Copy the test project to file.

  3. Use Change Assistant to upload the customer data to PUM Source.

  4. Review the upload on the PUM Source.

  5. Run the Test Coverage Calculation on the PUM Source.
