1 IntroductionThe objective of this document is to present the solution created to upload test scripts in Quality Center under specifications defined by GOM (Global Operational Model).
The creation of a new macro to upload test scripts was necessary because the solution provided by HP (Add-In "Upload to Quality Center") is not enough for adoption of the following concepts introduced by the GOM:
Test cases modularization and reuse; Division of test cases by steps; Test cases parameter upload.
The main improvements implemented by the new macro "Upload QC" are listed below: Upload to Quality Center without the creation of an intermediate worksheet,
containing the "Subject" and "Test Name"; Identification of parameters and default values used in test cases; "Test Lab" tree folder creation, including the association of test cases for their "Test
Sets"; Definition and use of “template test cases”; Test cases formatting and automatic numbering.
