can I have svn for RFT scripts?

Question

We user svn at work and now we are introducing RFT (Rational Functional Tester).

Is there any chance I can use existing svn to version my RFT scripts? I understood that one RFT script contains is not equal only one file.

• RFT v 8.1.1.2 runs on windows xp
• svn runs on linux

• is it good enough to version .class and .java files?

Answer 1

You can use Subversion to version any file. However, text and binary files are treated differently. For text files it is possible to view differences line by line, with binary files you can simply check out an older version.
