Configuration Files

Configuration files of Tricentis Tosca can be modified in order to either customize existing settings or to add new, specific settings.

Any changes to the configuration files should exclusively be made by administrators.

This chapter describes the following configuration files in greater detail:

• TOSCACommander.exe.config: includes Tosca Commander settings

• TCShell.exe.config: includes TC-Shell settings

• Tricentis.Automation.RelayService.exe.config: includes settings for the Tosca XBrowser Engine 3.0 (Tosca TBox)

• DbRepositorySchemaMigrator.exe.config: includes DbRepositorySchemaMigrator settings

• user.<Version>.config: includes user-specific settings

Tosca will handle settings which you specify in the user.<Version>.config file with higher priority than the according settings of the TOSCACommander.exe.config and TCShell.exe.config file.
