Major panix - major oops

Somehow I have now got two versions of the test EAP file.  One has got a single use case with a huge chunk of tests entered on the weekend and the other is the backup from Friday night which has been used since Monday morning - new use cases and tests.

If I export the missing use case from the weekend file and import it into the current live:
1) will it bring the tests (t_objecttests not "test" elements) with it?
2) is it likely to clobber any EA db structures entered since then?

Hi Bruce,

We're just taking a look into this now...

Shall respond asap.

Bruce,

1) Yes - XMI export/import will bring in the tests
2) Yes - If you XMI import the same package over the top of a copy, the copy will be clobbered.

So to avoid the clobbering either check the strip guids XMI option when importing your weekend work into the Monday morning model or :

1. Open your weekend model and drag the Use Case into a fresh package.
2. XMI export the fresh package
3. XMI import the fresh package into your Monday morning model
4. Drag your weekend Use Case to it's original package.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Ben
