Managing Custom Libraries


Users with Test Administrator permissions or higher can add, modify, or delete custom libraries. These libraries will be displayed in the library tree pane used when opening, saving, importing, or exporting test elements. Use the Custom Library Administration window... to manage your libraries. The standard test libraries provided with the test system cannot be modified or deleted.
