How deleting an asset affects the other assets in workspace

Deleted asset Effect on other assets
Project You are prompted whether to delete the project contents. If you click Yes, the contents are physically deleted. If you click No, you will not see the contents in the Test Navigator, but the project remains in workspace, which is, by default...

    C:\Documents and Settings\username\IBM\Rationalsdpn.n/workspace
Schedule No effect on other assets.
Test Test is physically deleted.

If you open a schedule and delete a test, the test is deleted from the schedule, but the test remains available as a test asset.

Custom code The class in the custom code action of the test will not work. Typically you delete the custom code class from the Resource perspective or the Java perspective.

If you delete the name of the custom code class that implements the custom code action, the deletion does not change the corresponding .java file.

Datapool The datapool is physically deleted. When you open a test that uses the datapool, you are prompted to take one of these actions:

  • Locate the datapool
  • Remove the datapool reference from the test
  • Leave the invalid reference in

You must correct or delete the reference to run the test successfully.

If you open a test and delete the datapool from the Common Options tab, only the reference to the datapool is deleted.

Location You are not asked to confirm the deletion, nor are you warned if a user group uses the location. The user group is marked with a red X when you open the schedule containing it.
Results You are asked to confirm the deletion, and the results are physically deleted.
