Rational Quality Manager

Key Features

• RQM is accessed from a browser via an organization's intranet or (using SSL) the internet.
• Defects are managed by the designated defect provider application. RQM can be its own defect provider, but the solution is more powerful if the defect provider is RTC. Rational ClearQuest can also be used as the defect provider.
• Roles/permissions: different users can be granted different permissions at both the level of the entire RQM application and also at the level of each project. This ensures that only the appropriate people may access and/or modify test data.
• Test managers can specify the environment on which tests are to be run. This is known in RQM as managing lab resources.
• Projects, called Lifecycle Projects, can be created which span RQM, RTC and RRC. In a lifecycle project, RTC is automatically designated as the defect provider.
• Status information can be shown on a dashboard. RQM allows dashboards to be configured to show almost any information on the project.
• RQM integrates with RFT and Rational Robot and also HP's UFT automated functional test tools.
• RQM integrates with Rational Performance Tester (RPT) so as to manage performance tests and store their results.
