   1. What is meant by test lab in Quality Centre?
Test lab is a part
of Quality Centre where we can execute our test on different cycles
creating test tree for each one of them. We need to add test to these
test trees from the tests, which are placed under test plan in the
project. Internally Quality Centre will refer to this test while
running then in the test lab.

2. Can you map the defects directly to the requirements(Not through the test cases) in the Quality Centre?
In the following methods is most likely to used in this case:
Create your Req.Structure
Create the test case structure and the test cases
Map the test cases to the App.Req
Run and report bugs from your test cases in the test lab module.

The
database structure in Quality Centre is mapping test cases to defects,
only if you have created the bug from Application. test case may be we
can update the mapping by using some code in the bug script module(from
the customize project function), as per as i know, it is not possible
to map defects directly to an requirements.
