Remote System : Environment tab




The Environment tab for the remote system is the place to setup all the environment variables that TETware professional will and may need to execute correctly.

All variables specified in this tab will be written to the tetdist.cfg file.
Please note: these variables, will be given a suffix of "TET_REMnnn" when written to the relevant configuration file, where "nnn" is the remote system number assigned by the User.

Use the "Browse" button to browse the file system, a file selection dialog box will be displayed that can be used to find directories only.
Note: it may be that the remote system to be used in testing is not accessible via the file system, i.e the remote file system is not mounted or no network drive has been mapped, in which case the directory to use should be typed directly into the text field.

Use the "Clear" button to clear the contents of the relevant field.
