Access and Login
The Test Lead's Desktop is accessed by typing in the following URL in a web browser:
http(s)://<hostName_or_IP>/flex/html5
User credentials can be customized from the /wiki/spaces/ZE6/pages/149487627 application by the Test Manager unless another authentication system is in use. Leads and testers must be /wiki/spaces/ZE6/pages/149618706 in order to be able to login. The user is given an opportunity to change that password on their first login if the default authentication system is in use.
Once logged in, the Test Lead's Desktop has the following major areas:
Title Bar
The Title Bar of the manager desktop gives drop-down menus for Dashboards and Projects on the left. Additionally, the name of the person who has logged in, help, and user profile options are displayed on the right.
If the Test Lead has been assigned to other projects, the drop-down allows them to quick switch to those other project spaces.
Tool Dock
The left side of the desktop has a tool dock that lists all the applications that are available to the user. This entire tool dock can be slid to the left to make more room for application windows. The following applications are shown based on which applications have been turned on for this user in the Customizations application:
