Test Case Management and Tracking

The Test Case Management and Tracking database assists with test case management and tracking. In this database, test case de®nitions and their execution results are tracked. Defects can be opened for failing test cases to track their progress.

Generic

A Generic database is available for other purposes that you choose and also has access to TeamConnection.

User De®ned

A User De®ned database is also available. Advanced users can de®ne a database that utilizes the Notes documentation facility, combined with the TeamConnection integration built into the template, with their own local de®nitions of forms and views.

Each of the databases also allow you to capture and track information about documents and link the documents to TeamConnection. With each of type of database, you can add a document to the database, respond to a document, respond to a response, ¯ag a document as private, and route a document for review to your team members.

Refer to the database Using document for a description of the forms, views, and tasks associated with each of the database types available.

Forms and subforms

Forms provide the structure and organization of elements in the documents used by your database. The integrated database forms come preloaded with default values. There are one or more subforms de®ned for all the forms that allow user-de®ned subforms. This allows you to augment or replace the subform supplied by TeamConnection. The TeamConnection-supplied database teamc.nsf has all of the user subforms de®ned. See ªAdvanced customizationº on page 125 for more details on using user-de®ned subforms.
