For ClearCase to properly support merging, you must set up a link to the Functional Tester type managers.

To set up ClearCase to merge Functional Tester files on UNIX:

  1. Open a terminal window on the UNIX system where you installed Functional Tester..

  2. In the terminal widow, type the following to open the directory where you installed ClearCase.

>cd /ClearCaseinstalldirectory/lib/mgrs/_rftdef

where ClearCaseinstalldirectory is the directory where you installed ClearCase.

  1. Type the following commands to link to the Functional Test type manager:

>ln -s /FunctionalTestinstalldirectory/IBM/Rational/Software Development Platform/6.0/FunctionalTester/eclipse/plugins/com.rational.test.ft.wswplugin_6.1.0/rtmapmerge merge

>ln -s /FunctionalTestinstalldirectory/IBM/Rational/Software Development Platform/6.0/FunctionalTester/eclipse/plugins/com.rational.test.ft.wswplugin_6.1.0/rtmapmerge xmerge

where FunctionalTestinstalldirectory is the directory where you installed Functional Tester.
