Figure 5.1. The “Login” Screen

Three user accounts are predefined in the database with the following roles:

Administrator	Username: `admin` / Password: `admin`
Manager	Username: `manager` / Password: `manager`
Tester	Username: `tester` / Password: `tester`

Confirm the login to Klaros-Testmanagement by clicking the Log In button.

For a description of the users roles and the permissions associated with each role, see Appendix A, Access Permissions.

The Klaros-Testmanagement Enterprise Edition also supports authentication using an external directory service (LDAP / Active Directory). For more information about configuring an external directory service, see Section 10.5.5, “LDAP”.

	Automated User Creation Option
	If a user is authenticated for the first time using an external directory service, a user account with the Tester role can be created automatically for this user. The LDAP attributes for the username and the e-mail address are automatically transferred to the newly created user account in this case.

	Setting the User Interface Language at Login
	By default, the user interface is displayed in the language specified by the localization setting of the server operating system. Clicking on one of the flags to the right above the username text box also allows you to select a different language for the user interface.

After a successful login the Projects page is shown ( Figure 5.2).
