The first time a Release 4.3 test stream runs with the current release, the test stream will be reviewed to see if it has existing global, auto, or local variables. If it does, these variables will be automatically converted to the current release's rules that will be applied during the run.
Variables are converted as follows:
The resulting test stream will no longer contain any global, auto, or local variables, but will have a ruleset with the same name as the test stream associated with it.
In addition, if a Release 4.3 test stream is copied to a new test stream using the online utilities or a batch copy using the current release, the global, auto, and local variables will be converted into a ruleset with a matching name—just as if the test stream had been run using the current release. This is the recommended method if you have Release 4.3 test streams that will need to be manipulated using the Rules function.
Note: If a Release 4.3 test stream has run under the current release, it can still run in a Release 4.3 environment; however, any test stream created with a newer release cannot run in Release 4.3.
