I have an Custom attribute "1. Pre Condition" in Summary block in Test cases.
I need to assign value to it.
I have tried below methods which dint work:

1. testcase.variables.name="1. Pre-Conditions".value=K

2. testcase.Section("myns:com.ibm.rqm.planning.editor.section.Summary","RQM-KEY-TC-PRE-COND-TITLE")=K

Could you tell me the right way to assign values to custom attributes.

Thanks,

Regards,
Chethan Kumar R

  You can refer to https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMExcelWordImporter#Custom_Attributes about how to get identifier.

To get Custom Attribute Identifier follow below steps : 

  1. Create Custom Attributes for TestCase
  2. Create/Update a TestCase and fill value for the Custom Attributes in the TestCase.
  3. Perform GET of this testcase using RQMURLUtility. In the received xml you should see ns2:customAttributes tag similar to below snippet. The value of "identifier" tag is the Custom Attribute identifier. In this case Identifiers for the 2 Custom Attributes are "Custom_attribute_0_" and "Custom_attribute_1_" respectively
I tested in my 6.0.1 environment, if I created a custom attribute "1. Pre-Conditions", the identifier I got is "_._Pre-Conditions". So in the cfg file it should like:
testcase.customAttributes identifier="_._Pre-Conditions".name="1. Pre-Conditions".type="SMALL_STRING".value=K

Please verify in your environment what the identifier should be.

Custom attribute "1. Pre-Conditions" is already available in my environment.
Could you please tell me How do i need to read custom Attributes identifier for existing Custom attribute?

In the mean time tried with testcase.customAttributes identifier="_._Pre-Conditions".name="1. Pre-Conditions".type="SMALL_STRING".value=K dint work.

For custom attribute, the syntax is:
testcase.customAttributes identifier="<Custom_attribute_identifier>".name="1. Pre-Conditions".type="SMALL_STRING".value=K

Please see https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMExcelWordImporter#Custom_Attributes about how to get custom attribute identifier.

Could you please tell me where to find the "<custom_attribute_identifier>".

I Tried this testcase.customAttributes identifier="1.Pre-Conditions".name="1. Pre-Conditions".type="SMALL_STRING".value=K  but it actually creating a new attribute. :(
Its not created in Custom Attribute section but in Artifact categeries.
