Implementation

The complete DevTest RQM solution is implemented as two components:

The web UI allows for the extension of the out-of-the-box UI. This UI also allows the necessary parameters to be passed and displayed between DevTest and RQM. The DevTest RQM Connector is used to respond to work tasks that the RQM schedules. The task information that the UI collects is passed to the connector, and the connector invokes TestRunner with the necessary parameters.

The connector takes advantage of the TestRunner -html switch and uses it to generate the HTML output that is later uploaded back to RQM. After the test completes, the results of the test are uploaded to RQM and associated with the test run. The user can then inspect the results through the RQM interface.
