Update

You can use the [Update] feature to update your local contents with the latest contents of the server.

Manual Update

1. Update manually by choosing one of the two methods below.
   • In the [Test Navigator] view, select [Team Testing] > [Update] from the project’s context menu.
     
   • Select [Team Testing] > [Update] at the top of the tool.
     

2. An update dialog appears when there are changes in the contents, when there are conflict resources, or when shared resources connected with tests change. Otherwise, updates are automatically reflected. The update dialog is described in the [Conflict management] section.

Automatic update

In order to synchronize the test environment with other users, the local revision and the server revision must always be kept the same. If the local revision is not the latest, the results of the test cannot be guaranteed and the local work cannot be uploaded to the server. CT 2023.12 periodically updates to keep the local revision up to date. Update notifications appear periodically, and revisions are additionally checked before using features that require a connection to the server, such as commits.

Conflict management

If resources you modified locally have also been changed on the server, crashes occur when updating. CT 2023.12 provides conflict management feature to resolve conflicts and reflect updates.

• When all resource conflicts are resolved, the [OK] button becomes active.
• Section 1 shows a list of resources and tests that caused conflicts during the update.
  • Resources or tests that have been added, deleted, modified, or conficted are marked with , , , or , respectively
  • Resources with resolved conflicts are marked with and resources copied to the server contents are marked with .
