Info

You can upgrade to QAS v8.0.0 x without uninstalling QFD. Also, QAS 8.0.x and QFD can be installed on the same computer.
However, Qualitia recommends uninstalling QFD after migrating all the projects to avoid confusion.

...

  • Qualitia recommends that you run the QFD Migration Utility on any of the Qualitia client machines. The Qualitia client machines already have the prerequisites for running the utility and the project folders integrated with version control systems (SVN) are also available on them.

  • QAS 8.0.x server must be installed before you start the QFD project migration.

  • QAS 8.0.x server must be configured with the same database management (MySQL or Microsoft SQL) as QFD server. For example, if the QFD server is configured with MySQL, then QAS server must also be configured using MySQL.

  • You must upgrade to QFD version 4.3.11 before migrating your QFD projects.

  • Ensure that you have access to:

    • QFD database

    • SVN (if it is integrated with QFD)

    • QAS 8.0.x database

  • Update the project path to the latest versions of test cases and tasks.

  • Plan the migration as the process may take more time for large projects.

  • For a better turn-around time for the migration process, Qualitia recommends using a computer with the following configuration:

    • 16 GB RAM or more

    • Quad-Core Processor

    • 5GB Free Disk Space or more

  • Close all the programs for better performance

...

  • Type: Select the database type for QAS v8.0.x, MySQL or SQL Server.

  • Server: Port: Specify the QAS v8.0.x database server address along with its Port Id. The default Port Id for MySQL is 3306 and for SQL Server is 1433.

  • Database Name: Specify the Master Database name of QAS v8.0.x.

  • Authentication: If you have selected SQL Server database, select this option to authenticate to the SQL Server using Windows credentials.

  • User Name: Specify the username to connect with the QAS v8.0.x database.

  • Password: Specify the password for authentication.

  • Project Path: Specify the folder where Qualtia 8v8.0.x saves the project artifacts (test cases, tasks, and custom actions).
