Dear

Solution manager is also one of the client. We can use the solution manager for doing configuration, storing the document of blue print,config. document,testing (unit and intergration) documents.

Even we can create test case for unit testing and those test cases we can assign it to user, So the core user can login solution manger and do the testing, if he click test case, system it will take him to quality client for testing, after testing he can record the results.

If any error user faced, he will record the errors, those errors will be recorded in solution manager and can solved.
