Import Requirement or Constraint as Test
If you are creating a test against an internal requirement or internal constraint of an element, you do not have to manually re-type the details into the test record in the Construct window. You can generate a testing record on the element from the requirement or constraint.
The test record is generated into the Construct 'test-type' window that you currently have open, and the requirement or constraint description is copied to the 'Description' tab for the test record.
Access
Select an element, then use one of the methods outlined here to display the Testing window or Element Browser.
