Ask a question

is there any ETM Jenkins Interaction possible?

Hello, 

I am looking for a way to automate the interaction between jenkins (or other CI/CD like Gitlab) with ETM.

I found some answers but very old (more than 8 years ago) and not sure if that would help.

we have current process in mind, where the integration could support:
- ETM produces a testplan and this is exported (manually) to excel (it seems only format available for ETM)
- Jenkins takes this excel as input and runs all tests and produces a report (xml)
- This report is imported by ETM (most probably using excel)

thanks for any information in advance.

I am unsure what the question is.

This has been something you could do for quite a long time, but not the way you've suggested.

Normally what happens is that you build your test plans, cases, and automated scripts and set them all up in ETM. Then Jenkins does the build and deploy, and tells ETM to run the tests. ETM then manages the test running and reporting.

You can do this either by 
 - setting up an EWM build process that uses Jenkins as the Build Engine, and then triggering the Jenkins build from there. Then set up an ETM Execution Schedule that automatically runs the selected testing based on the Build Success, or 
 - doing it standalone and manually from inside Jenkins by using the ETM Execution Tool to call ETM to start running the tests, or by setting up and using ANT tasks com.ibm.rqm.executiontool.RQMExecuteTestCaseExecRecord or com.ibm.rqm.executiontool.RQMExecuteTestSuiteExecRecord
