Duplicate a project to create an exact copy of the project, for example to create a base line of the project. You must log
in as an administrator to duplicate projects in a
Silk Test Workbench database.
Choose
Tools > Administration.
Or, you can click
Administration in the
Tasks pane of the
Start Screen.
The
Administration dialog box opens.
Click the
Projects tab.
Choose the project you want to duplicate, and then click
Duplicate.
The
Duplicate Project dialog box appears.
Specify a name for the project duplicate in the
New name field.
Optional: Check the
Copy all versions of assets check box.
By default, this check box is unchecked and only the active version of each asset in the original project is copied.
If the project references one or more other projects, select an action from the
Action column of the referenced project to specify what to do with the project.
To retain the reference from the project duplicate to the referenced project, select
Retain reference. This is the default setting.
To duplicate the referenced project and to reference the duplicated project from the duplicated root project select
Duplicate Project in the
Action column. You can change the name for the duplicated project in the
New name column.
To duplicate a child referenced project, you also have to duplicate the parent project. For example, if you are duplicating
project A that references project B, and project B references project C, you have to duplicate project B in order to duplicate
project C.
Click
OK.
Note: This button is disabled while there are errors with referenced projects or duplicate project names.
Click
Yes to start the duplication process.
Once the project has been successfully duplicated, a dialog displays. Click
OK.
The duplicated project appears in the
Projects list.
Click
OK on the
Administration dialog.
Note: Results in the original project are not copied.
