Importing sub-projects

Sub-projects are projects that are grouped together within a master project. Projects can contain one or more sub-projects which are actually links to other project directories. The behaviour of a sub-project is the same as a project.

There are two ways of setting up a master project:

Add the projects manually to a new or existing project. Use this method to import projects one by one from different locations or to add sub-projects to an existing project.
Imports all the projects contained in a specific directory into a master project. Use this method to automatically import many sub-projects when they are all located in the same directory.

To add an existing sub-project:

Create a new project or open an existing project.
Select File > Add Project > Existing Project. This opens the file selector.
Locate and select an .rtp project file and click OK.

To create a new sub-project:

Create a new project or open an existing project.
Select File > Add Project > New Project. This opens the Add New Project wizard.
Enter a name and location for the new project, and click Finish. The new sub-project is created with the configuration settings of the super-project.

To create a master project containing all sub-projects from a directory:

Close any open projects
Select File > Import > Import multiple HCL OneTest™ Embedded projects.
Enter the name of the new master project and the location of the existing projects and click OK. The new project is created in the selected directory and imports all the projects found in all sub-directories of that location. When browsing many directories, the import can take a long time.
