Linking Requirements to test case using ETMExcelImporter


Archita Modi (111) | asked Apr 08, 2:17 a.m.

I am using ETMExcelImporter to import test cases to ETM and requirements are getting linked but 2 times. 

In the Requirement Links Tab 2 links are attached of same ID. Why is this happening?

I have used testcase.requirement=LinkByExistingID(U) in cfg file to link the requirements.

Under LinkByExistingID it is specified:
If the module identifier is not specified in the requirement identifier, then the test artifact is linked to the non-module requirement and module requirement (if any).
If you are using modules, I would advise to always link to the module requirement according to:
To link to an existing module-specific requirement, specify the requirement identifier in the format of MODULE_ID.REQUIREMENT_ID. For example, the requirement identifier is specified as '1476.2345', where '1476' is the module identifier and '2345' is the requirement identifier..
