The QA Wizard Pro Server application must be installed on a networked Windows computer. It does not require a QA Wizard Pro license or QA Wizard Pro to be installed on the server computer.
To install the server application and admin utility, run the QA Wizard Pro installer and select the QA Wizard Pro Server option.
The QAWServer directory is created in the root directory of the server computer the first time the server starts. For example, if you install the QA Wizard Pro Server in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Perforce\QA Wizard Pro directory, the server directory is C:\QAWServer. The server directory stores global application data and the server database. A SQLite server database (QAWServer.db) is automatically created in this directory. You can use this database to store playback data or use a Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or PostgreSQL database. See Configuring the server database.
If you upgraded QA Wizard Pro, a backup copy of the global repository is created in the server directory and named with the highest version number (for example, repositoryV3). If you upgraded from QA Wizard Pro 2011.0 or earlier, the default server directory is named QAWRepository.
Note: Users must configure a connection to the server before they can access it. See Setting server connection options.
