RQM Excel Utility, External ID and linking to an existing Test Plan from a Test Suite
I'm trying to assign an external id to a test suite where the cfg file has the statement "testsuite.XLSArtifactID=A", and the spreadsheet has one row for each test suite including title, description, owner, custom category values and attribute informaiton. Col A has values like TSsuite0003 as the external id. The upload runs without error create the test suites with the assigned values. What's unusual is its creating a custom section called "XLSArtifactID", which does not seem right or is it? Additionally i'm trying to link each test suite to an existing test plan with "testsuite.testplan=BF" in the cfg file and a value like urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:988 in column BF, but no link gets generated from the test suite to identified test plan. Appreciate any suggestions |

Hi Thomas,
the could using testsuite.tesplan=LinkExisting(BF) to linking existing testplan.
the XLSArtifactID is used for a note for the external id on the web ui.

Thank you for the response, the testsuite.tesplan=LinkExisting(BF) worked!! Are you saying that the creation of the custom section called "XLSArtifactID in the Test Suite is correct when I use testsuite.XLSArtifactID=A in the cfg file? yes, exactly. |
Hi, I try to do the same thing but I was wondering where you get the value from. You said you are using a value like urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:988. I tried to use the Test Plan name but that got me an error. Could you let me know where I can find the Test Plan ID that is needed for this kind of reference? Thank you very much in advance for your help. |
