Putting test assets under source control

Use version-control software, such as Rational ClearCase or Rational Team Concert, to put test assets under source control.

If you use version-control software, such as Rational ClearCase or Rational Team Concert, put the following assets under source control to share them with the members of your team that use the same source-control product. Put the different project assets in separate folders under the main project.

Asset	File name extension	Comments
Projects	.project	This enables the project to be seen and imported by another user.
Schedules	.testsuite
Tests	.testsuite
Custom code	.java	Put any custom code that you have written for a test under source control. Put this code under the src folder for the project; for example, in src\custom. This code must be versioned as a single logical unit with the test that includes it (, the code and the test should be versioned together).
Datapools	.datapool
Locations	.location
Results	.trc*xmi	Results assets, which are not visible in the Test Navigator, contain the data used to create reports and should be under source control. To see these assets, start the Navigator view, and perform the check out and check in operations from this view. Store the results in a separate results folder, which you can specify when running a schedule or test.

Follow these guidelines:

• Turn off the Eclipse prompt displayed every time you create a file, asking if to add it to source control. To do so, click Window > Preferences > Team > ClearCase SCM Adapter preferences page and select Do Nothing.
• During a session, keep schedules and tests checked out for easy editing. When you exit Eclipse, you are prompted to check them back in.
• Put test logs (files with the .execution file name extension) under source control, in the results folder.

• Do not put the class path file under source control.
