This is an example of how you can integrate SoloSubmit with Active Directory.
There are two pieces to make this work. First, you must have a login page to authenticate the user against Active Directory. There are several examples out there, and I have chosen to use ASP.NET with C#.

Generic controls are those controls that an automated testing tool doesn’t natively recognize. They may show up with actions like LMouseClick or MouseMove on them along with the coordinates that the mouse action occurred at. These aren’t very useful when testing, as their available actions are limited and you might have to go through some extra work if you want to checkpoint data on them. QA Wizard Pro 2010 introduced a feature to change all of that.
Share on Technorati . del.icio.us . Digg . Reddit . Slashdot . Facebook . StumbleUponWe recently released a Surround SCM 2010. This release has many exciting new features and enhancements.
Two that are very exciting for me are the addition of an API and the ability to customize menus in the client to launch third-party applications. The ability to launch third-party tools (or your own) from the Surround SCM client menus means that now there is a plugin architecture. This opens the door for custom integrations with other tools and as well as our own.

RollbackChangelist is a tool that allows the user to rollback files committed via a changelist. The tool goes file by file and rolls it back to the version previous to the one created by the changelist.
Unlike the changelist, this rollback is not atomic. This tool does the equivalent of the user going to each file’s history and rolling back the file, one by one.

A few months back, I posted a tool called CM Toolbox, which allowed you to see the current status of defects that had files attached from Surround SCM. The criteria used for showing defects was the branch selected from a dropdown, which was then used to search each defect’s source code list and see if any belonged to that branch. If a match was found, the defect was added to the list.
Integrated CM toolbox gives you basically the same thing, although with a different approach. Using the Surround SCM API and the plug in architecture, this tool queries all Attach to Defect events for all files in the selected branch in the Surround SCM client. It parses the comments from all of these events and builds a defect list. For each defect, it connects to TestTrack using the SOAP SDK to get the current status of each defect.

Surround SCM client-side plug-ins allow you to create custom client menus to launch external processes, such as a code review tool or build process.
This document lays out the plug-in architecture options then walks through a simple Hello World example to help you get started.

SSCMigrate is a sample tool that copies a branch into a new mainline. It can be any branch, however, only that branch is migrated. Any child branch will not be migrated. This is a sample tool and it is not a finished product by any means.
Depending on your needs, this may give you a good starting point.

The reporting plug-in architecture in TestTrack and Surround SCM enables some pretty exciting reporting and dashboard integration possibilities.
You’ll find a basic Crystal Reports plug-in on this page, which allows you to view reports created in Crystal Reports from the TestTrack and Surround SCM clients.

Report models organize database tables and views in a way that allows users to create reports without understanding queries or the physical database structure. Report models can also control the available data for reporting.
