Preconditions

To understand the integration of TCM to the TCS Tool @ QUASTe please get first familiar with the TCS Tool by reading this tutorial.

Create and Edit a localized Test Case Specification

Case: We decide to localize and adapt an existing TCS (English (USA)) into German.

Choose the TCS to be localised

• On QUASTe, choose "View test case specifications".

Fig 1: The TCS Query

• Query for the TCS you want to localize (Fig. 1).
• Click on it's Name (1) to get the preview (Fig. 2) of the whole TCS
  or edit the TCS directly (2).

Fig 2: The TCS Preview

Fig 3: The TCS Properties

• Notice in the TCS Properties (Fig. 3) that the default language is English (USA) (3)

Fig 4: The TCs Overview

• Click on the [Test Cases] tab page to get an overview of the existing TCs (Fig. 4).

Fig 5: A Test Case in Edit mode

• On Fig. 5 we have a look at the content of a test case in English.
• Now, back to the [Properties] tab page...

Clone the original TCS

Fig 6: Here to clone the original test case'

• At the bottom of the [Properties] tab page click on the [Create locali[z]ed TCS] (Fig. 6).

Fig 7: The language list'

• The language list (Fig 7) shows the languages in which the current TCS has not be localized yet.
• Choose your language and click [Create localized TCS] (5)

Fig 8: A cloned TCS'

• The TCS is cloned and shows now the current localization language (6)
• The TCS properties now shows other available language versions (7),
  in this case, the language of the original TCS.
• Now click on the [Test Cases] tab page...

Fig 9: The TCs Overview of the cloned TCs'

• The TCs of the original TCS have been cloned (Fig. 9).
• Note that the TCs have by the status "not finished" (8)
  which shows that no localization work has been done yet.
  As a consequence, those TCs don't appear in the TCS Preview as long as they are not flagged as "Finished".
• We need now to edit the cloned TCs...

Fig 10: The TCs Overview of the cloned TCs'

• We can now translate the content of the TCs and adapt them to the language we are working on (Fig. 9).

Fig 10: Localized TCS Preview'

• After the TCs have been localized and adapted, they appear in the TCS preview.
