Settings – Shared Settings

To simplify the distribution of the various settings for workspaces and connections in the team, the suxxesso Test Pilot offers the option of defining shared (common) settings and saving them on a shared drive. These are secured with a security key and can be read and loaded with the appropriate rights. Any write protection for these shared settings must be ensured via Windows rights.

Note: Only technical users with selected rights should be created as roles in the shared connections. Passwords are stored in encrypted form.
