Setting Up the Example Export Formatter

To customize the example export formatter, you must load it into Eclipse and create a plug-in.

To set up the example export formatter:
  1. Create a folder for storing your customized formatter plug-in, for example, C:\MyEclipse\MyPlugins.
  2. Copy the example Manual Tester export formatter from the installation location to the folder that you just created. For example, copy the export formatter from the default installation location (C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\SDP\6.0\ManualTest\eclipse\plugins\com.ibm.rational.test.mt_1.0.0\examples\MTExampleExportCustomization ) to C:\MyEclipse\MyPlugins.
  3. In Eclipse, click File > New > Project.
  4. Select Java Project and click Next.
  5. In the Project Name field, enter a project name, for example, Example Exporter.
  6. In the Location panel, click Create project at external location.
  7. Click Browse to browse to the folder where you copied the export formatter example. In this example, the location is C:\MyEclipse\MyPlugins\MTExampleExportCustomization.
  8. Click Finish.
The Example Exporter project is displayed in the Package Explorer view.
