Consolidation

Consolidation creates a single component from the objects and data in an SAP Quality Center test. The component contains all the code and screen elements in a test. It executes much faster than the individual components and helps you to maintain business processes. Consolidation also takes dependent tests into account.

The parameter of a basic component is available for a consolidated component, only if a value has been set for the parameter before consolidation. You can still edit this parameter after consolidation. If you add a parameter to the basic component after consolidation, you need to reconsolidate the basic component.

Consolidation synchronizes the content in the data table (number of lines), and the iterations of the component in the test which makes use of it (generated by SAP Test Acceleration and Optimization while consolidating the intial test).

Procedure
