XLSArtifactID section does not create when importing test plans to RQM 5.0?

Hi,

May I please know if XLSArtifactID section visibility is removed in current version of RQM 5.0?

I imported one test plan using the below cfg file & observed that XLSArtifactID section is not created, which used to be earlier?

Can some one help with this info?

Below is my config file:
// Test Plan
testplan.dc:title=C2
testplan.dc:description=C2
testplan.XLSLink=testcase
testplan.XLSArtifactID=C4

// Test Case
testcase.XLSArtifactID=A
testcase.dc:description=A
testcase.dc:title=B
testcase.XLSStartRow=7
testcase.Section("myns:com.ibm.rqm.planning.editor.section.testCaseDesign","RQM-KEY-TC-DESIGN-TITLE")=C
testcase.weight="1"
testcase.category term="Function".value=E
testcase.category term="Test Case Type".value=F
testcase.alm:state="com.ibm.rqm.planning.common.new"
testcase.XLSDelimeter=\n

Hi Sindhuri,

Can you please elaborate the issue?
XLSArtifactID is not a section. It is used for specifying external ID. We still support the usage of XLSArtifactID

Hi Reshma,

Yes it an external ID, and is created as an section of test plan in RQM, after importing using RQMExcelImporter.

I imported one test plan using below cfg file:

// Test Plan
testplan.dc:title=C2
testplan.dc:description=C2
testplan.XLSLink=testcase
testplan.XLSArtifactID=C4

// Test Case
testcase.XLSArtifactID=A
testcase.dc:description=A
testcase.dc:title=B
testcase.XLSStartRow=7
testcase.Section("myns:com.ibm.rqm.planning.editor.section.testCaseDesign","RQM-KEY-TC-DESIGN-TITLE")=C
testcase.weight="1"
testcase.category term="Function".value=E
testcase.category term="Test Case Type".value=F
testcase.alm:state="com.ibm.rqm.planning.common.new"
testcase.XLSDelimeter=\n

Earlier in previous versions of RQM I used to see this XLSArtifactID displayed as a section in test plans after importing.But not now.

Thanks Sindhuri for the link. Your answer is present in that link itself :)

The XLSArtifactID section is not part of the Template used by the Test Case and Test Plan. Ideally it should not get created in any artifact. If it is getting created then its a defect. I think the above defect fix would have stopped this section creation.
