HP ALM/QC


In addition to its input/output objects, every processor has the access to a number of helper methods simplifying the configuration and handling of synchronization requests. Using these helpers, complex synchronization logic can be reduced to a couple of simple steps.

Names of objects are case sensitive. displayname is different from displayName.
