Fixes in Performance Center 11.52 patch 1, taken from the release notes found in Patch 1: http://support.microfocus.com/kb/kmdoc.php?id=LID/PC_00292

Answer

Lab Management
204076 [Internal] After enabling the lab extension, the user could not create a timeslot if he belonged to a custom group created before the extension was enabled, even if the proper permissions were selected in Project Customization.

206276 Users in certain user groups could not save changes in Performance tests.
Note: In order for the user to get permissions to edit a Performance test, when granting Update permissions on Test, the entire Update folder has to be selected in the Permissions page.
Limitation: If the update folder only shows a "faded" check mark, the user has to uncheck it and check it again to grant the missing permissions.
 
206393 [Internal] Private hosts could not be added by some user groups.
 
206294 [Internal] Vusers could not be added for a Performance test when editing a Build Verification Suite.
 

Business Process Testing
204042 [Internal] In a versioning enabled project, removing a Business Process Testing component with thousands of iterations was slower than expected.
 
204738 [Internal] In a versioning enabled project, adding hundreds of iterations (each containing more than 30 parameters for a Business Process Testing component) at once, was slower than expected.
 
205130 [Internal] In a versioning enabled project, an error was thrown when copy-pasting a huge Business Process Test containing more than 10 thousand iteration parameters.
 
204309 [Internal] The "CommandList.MoveUp" and "CommandList.MoveDown" workflow events were not triggered when components were moved in a Business Process Test by drag and drop.

205038 [Internal] ALM passwords were visible from the Business Process Testing Remote Agent log.
 
205203 [Internal] The status of Business Components in the last run results report was always “No Run” in cases where a required UDF was defined for test steps.
 
205109[Internal] When trying to run a Business Process Test with a specific structure that contained Flows and Groups, an error “Index was out of range” appeared.
 
205205[Internal] When trying to ungroup a components group in a Business Process Test or Flow test, an error “Item doesn’t exist” appeared.
 
204300[Internal] Creating many Business Component iterations from the Iterations dialog structure was slower than expected.
 
206220[Internal] When performing “Undo Check-out” after grouping Business Components, an error “Object Reference” appeared.
 
204439[Internal] When running Business Process Tests manually, an error message was raised when parameters were added to already included Business Components using the "<<< >>>" notation.
 
204301 [Internal] Business Process Test execution: The transition time between Business Components and between iterations of Business Components for tests with a lot of iterations and Business Components, took longer than expected.
 
204303 [Internal] Business Process Test execution: Execution initialization time for Business Process Tests having many Business Components and iterations took longer than expected.
 
204343[Internal] Business process Test execution: When trying to run Business Process Tests from a machine on which the login was done using a user name having non-English characters, an error appeared.
 
203703[Internal] Business Process Test execution: When trying to run Business Process Tests with many Business Components and iterations, the Business Process Testing Remote Agent crashed and the execution of the tests was stopped.
 
204298 [Internal] When synchronizing from a baseline containing automated components that were automated only after they were imported, the following issues occurred in the target library:
·         Business Process Tests that included such components failed when executed from the target library, using Unified Functional Testing
·         Business Process Tests that included such components ran successfully when executed from the target library using QuickTest Professional 11.00, but the execution was done in non-wrapper mode, and the execution was potentially slower
·         The keyword view of such components, when selected using the Unified Functional Testing plugin, was not displayed properly
 
205146 [Internal]  When upgrading projects to ALM11.5, if there were Business Components in which there were two or more parameters with the same name (but different case text) in the same Business Component, an error of “FP_COMPONENT_PARAM_IDX is not found” appeared.

QCCR1J62811 Export defects to Excel could not be completed and the "Could not export to a file." error was dislayed when a huge amount of data was kept in the comments field. Export operation now warns if specific cells within the grid exceed 32k in size. The export operation succeeds, but data beyond 32k is truncated. Cells with truncated data are colored red.

QCCR1J62728 TDCommand protocol error occurred when navigating by td:// link.
 
Management
204335 [Internal]After adding an Action into a QuickTest Professional test and capturing a new baseline, the library synchronization did not replicate the Action scripts to the target project.

204825[Internal] After deleting an Action from a QuickTest Professional test and capturing a new baseline, the library synchronization failed.
 
QCCR1J62435 Listing a release with 100 or more cycles took a long time.

QCCR1J62400 A Manual test to a remote VC project could not be copied if the test called another test with actual parameter values.
 
Analysis
QCCR1J62635   Progress graph generation failed in ORACLE 10 ALM projects.

204769 [Internal] In an Excel worksheet created by ALM, inserting a graph based on data from only some of the rows in the worksheet caused an error when trying to save the report to the ALM server.

QCCR1J62854 Versioning related fields were not included in Document Generator when Full page was used for Requirement Entity reporting.

QCCR1J62808 The Select Baseline option in project reports could not be selected.

QCCR1J62684 The Rich Text field was improperly rendered in Requirements Project Reports.
This fix requires the additional manual step of uploading the ‘Style Template Fixed’ template as default Style Template for project reports.


General
QCCR1J62725   "Invalid Server Response" and "server is not available" errors occured in some login scenarios.
 
QCCR1J63008 Tyring to use the function DownloadPictures, associated with a business process object, resulted in an exception thrown by OTA: "Attempted to read or write protected memory.”

Customization
QCCR1J62460   An error was encountered when trying to enter the Set Default Values dialog after a selected default value was removed from the custom list.
 
QCCR1J62432   Granting group permissions to create and modifiy requirements also required granting permission to cover those requirements with tests.
 
QCCR1J62422   The "Failed initializing plugin Requirements Plugin” error occurred after product installation in a specific environment.
 
Defect Module
QCCR1J62472   In specific upgraded projects, e-mail icons appeared in the defect details dialog box on items that should not have had them (Status or Modified, for example).


Installation & Upgrade
QCCR1J62462   After project migration, accent characters in the description of the component's parameters were replaced by HTML tags.

QCCR1J30738 When expanding the Release/Cycle tree, an error "Failed to Get Simple Key entity" occurred if there was a filter on user defined fields that allowed multiple values.

QCCR1J62439 In a version control enabled project, when logging in as a user belonging to a group with data hiding on test/resource, navigating to the History tab of an entity in Business Models displayed an "Index was out of range" error.

QCCR1J62686 The Rich Text field was improperly rendered in Requirements Project Reports.
There is still one limitation that font size and style of a number in a numbered list does not match the size and style of the line in the Rich Text UI.
This fix requires the additional manual step of uploading the ‘Style Template Fixed’ template as defaultStyle Template for the project report.

QCCR1J62614   Tests with missing configurations and orphan Run results files in the Smart Repository were not deleted from the Smart Repository (namely from SMART_REPOSITORY_LOGICAL_FILE and SMART_REPOSITORY_PHYSICAL_FILE tables).
QCCR1J62569 Two simultaneous users were not able to select or download attachments from the same entity. The entity was locked by the first user's selection of the attachment.
Note: The entity is still locked for other users when one user renames, uploads, removes or changes the description of an attachment. Other users cannot edit attachments during that time
