Problem conclusion

• This problem was caused because Tester was assuming that Quick
  Test Pro was installed in c:\program files.  On 64 bit versions
  of Windows it would be installed in c:\program files(x86) and
  the integration failed.  This has been resolved in Rational
  Integration Tester 8.5.1.
