Testing applications Creating a test deployment Creating a deployment

Deployment Editor

Test deployments are edited using the Deployment Editor. The editor contains three tabs:

Overview

This tab provides an overview of the test deployment, including its general information, artifacts, locations, and tests.

This tab contains the following sections:

General Information

Contains the test deployment's name, description, and file path within the workspace. The test deployment's name¹ and description are editable.
Artifacts

Contains links to the test artifacts in the Pairs tab. Clicking a link or the More... button will open the Pairs tab.
Locations

Contains links to the test locations in the Pairs tab. Clicking a link or the More... button will open the Pairs tab.
Tests

Contains the test suites associated with the test artifacts.

[1] Test deployments have a file name and logical name. The logical name is used in the Test Navigator of the Test Perspective, dialogs, editors, and wizards to represent the test deployment. The file name represents the test deployment file (*.deploy) within the workspace. When the test deployment is created, the logical name defaults to the file name (excluding the .deploy file extension) and may be modified without modifying the file name. The logical name allows customization of the test deployment name without affecting the file name within the workspace.

Pairs

This tab pairs test artifacts and test locations for executing a test suite.

This tab contains the following sections:

Artifacts

Contains the test artifacts associated with the test deployment.

Test artifacts can be added to the list by clicking the Add... button and selecting the test artifacts or creating a new test artifact.

Selected test artifacts can be removed (Remove), moved up (Up), moved down (Down), or opened in the Artifact Editor (Open...).
Locations

Contains the test locations associated with the test deployment.

Test locations can be added to the list by clicking the Add... button and selecting the test locations or creating a new test location.

Selected test locations can be removed (Remove), moved up (Up), moved down (Down), or opened in the Location Editor (Open...).
Artifact Location Pairs

Contains the pairs test artifacts and test locations for executing a test suite.

Create pairs of test artifacts and test locations by selecting a test artifact in the Artifacts list and a test location in the Locations list and clicking the down-arrow button ().

Selected pairs of test artifacts and test locations can be removed (Remove), moved up (Up), or moved down (Down).
