RQM 6.0.2: ExcelImporter - 2. Link test suite to an existing test plan 2. How to set custom atrributes/categories for the test suite in the config file?
Hi,
In my configuration file, I create new test suite with test cases. I would like to link the test suite i am creating to an existing test plan. How can I accomplish that in the config file for the ExcelImporter? Also, how do I set custom attributes and categories for the test suite in the config file? I am using RQM 6.0.2 and same excel importer. Thank you. |

You can use LinkExisting keyword - 'testsuite.testplan=LinkExisting("testplanid")' where testplanid is external/internal id of the test plan i.e. urn:com.ibm.rqm:testplan:3.
Categories are defined with the category term=<category name>.value=<category value> notation: i.e. testsuite.category term="Test Phase".value="Developer Test"
Hope this clarifies.
Regards,
Mehul

Neeta,
Please refer RQMExcelImporter's sample folder for cfg file 'TestSuite with TestCases 001.cfg', you can add following syntax to it and it will link testplan to testsuite.
/// ----
testplan.dc:title=C1
testplan.dc:description=A4
testplan.XLSLink=testsuite
/// ---
Add following line to update custom attributes
//---
testsuite.customAttributes name="Custom_name".value=C1
//---
Please refer RQMExcelImporter Wiki for supported syntax and example.
Regards,
Mehul

Mehul, Thanks for your answer. However, for the first questions, my test plan is not in the Excel, but it exists in RQM so I cannot link the test suite to the test plan since I don't have the test plan info in a cell in the excel sheet.
For the second question, what is the syntax for setting values for a custom CATEGORY? I could not find it in the wiki. Thanks.

Case Categories)
Add the following line using the information found in the "Manage Project Properties"
eg: testcase.customAttributes identifier="Keyword_2".name="Keyword 2".type="MEDIUM_STRING".value="NEW VALUE"

Hi,
I tried what Mehul suggested above to link a test suite to a test plan using the excel importer using the samples and the syntax suggested by Mehul above but it gives me this error:
