Using Windchill RV&S to Support Your Testing Process
This topic is intended to introduce you to the workflow and document types that form a test management implementation and describes how they fit together in the overall testing process. It contains the information required to learn how to:
Perform the activities of Test Management and understand the three phases of testing: Test Planning, Test Development, and Test Execution.
Manage the execution of test sessions, to capture detailed results against your test cases and reporting on those results to analyze performance and measurement statistics.
Establish trace relationships between Test Cases and the basis for testing, which could include Requirements, Models, or Specifications.
Relate failed test results to Defects to provide a tightly integrated relationship between the execution of test cases and defect management.
This topic does not aim to fully describe all components of Windchill RV&S, for example, fields, items, workflow, and other general options.
