The TAPE Admin client enables you to create and manage TAPE projects, users and the user access to TAPE projects. In the Main Scheduler in TAPE Admin, it is possible to get an overview of all scheduled test cases.
To start TAPE Admin, open your Web browser and type your TAPE Admin URL: http://<TAPE Server Name>:[<port number>]/tape-admin-gui/start/jnlp
TAPE Admin is by default set up with an admin user. The first time you must login using the following user and password:
Username: admin
Password: admin
Click Login. TAPE Administrator opens
Working with TAPE typically consists of four phases: create user, create project, assign project to user and view/manage Main-Scheduler.
Before you start working in TAPE, you need to create a TAPE project. A TAPE project collects and stores data relevant to the testing process.
You can create users in TAPE Admin, by defining username, password and additonal information. After you have created a project, you can add and remove users from the project.
In the Main-Scheduler it is possible to view all current and past testruns that have been scheduled. It is also possible to unschedule, delete and purge scheduled testruns.
