How to import custom reports into RQM automatically?


Arne Matthes (611) | asked Sep 26 '14, 4:23 a.m.
Hi everyone,

the logic and structure would be something like this:

1. RQM
2. 3rd party tool 
3. RFT

We would create the test cases in the 3rd party tool (2nd level). This tool executes the tests and creates a report.

What I want to know is, how do I have to change the report (i.e. XML) and how can I import the report into RQM?

I already found this link: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi
But don't get it how to AUTOMATICALLY import an XML into RQM.

Thanks and regards

You cannot 'import' a report into RQM.  However, you could parse the test results and/or generated report from the third-party tool and create the test artifacts (e.g. test results) in RQM to generate new RQM reports.  You would also gain some of the other features (queries, dashboards, etc.) from RQM.  In this case, you would use the RQM Reportable REST API.  If you can generate Word/Excel reports, you could use the RQM Excel/Word Importer.

You could also migrate the third-party test tool to RQM and use the RFT test adapter in RQM.
