Results
To automatically modify a Rational ClearQuest record associated
with a UCM activity, your Rational ClearQuest policies must be configured
to automatically transition Rational ClearQuest records based on ClearCase
actions. For example, if you check out a file in a UCM project that
is configured to work with Rational ClearQuest and you select an existing
ClearCase UCM activity to associate with the checkout, Rational ClearQuest
will automatically transition the record as appropriate if the transition
does not require further information. If more information from you
is required, the ClearQuest record opens and the fields requiring
information are highlighted.
The following Rational ClearCase
UCM actions can automatically transition ClearQuest records:
- Add to source control
- Check in
- Check out
- Rename, move, or delete an element under ClearCase source control
- Deliver
- Finish activity
- Work On
