Hi,

I've seen numerous posts re: exporting scripts using REST API and other methods to excel etc. I wonder if someone can help me though. We require the ability to export individual test scripts from RQM to an XML file - is this doable? If so, what is the process?

IBM have asked us to use the repo tools but I think they have got confused as the command they suggested exported the entire database, not an individual test script!

Thanks in advance!

Joe

Hi Joe,

You can use the public RQM REST API (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi) to resolve a feed of resources (e.g. test scripts) using your web browser or Firefox's Poster. Note, the optional request parameters (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi#Optional_Parameters). In your case, you would use the following request to resolve a fully populated feed of test scripts in the <projectAlias>:

https://<hostname>:<port>/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/<projectAlias>/testscript?abbreviate=false

Hi Paul,

Thanks very much for your response. That works really well!

Hi Paul,

We tested this yesterday and it worked fine on our "live RQM instance". When we tried it on our test instance it didn't work. Right-clicking and "save link as" was not saving the text/XML, it was trying to save the link to the actual page.

In Firefox each entry looks like this:
Test Script #this is what needs to be right-clicked
15 November 2010 10:52
Keyword Implementation
Media files
PROJECT (Firefox Document) #this links to RQM

From the test instance the top one also links to RQM. i.e. It does not open up a window with plain text in it.

Does this make sense?
Any thoughts on why this is happening? Both are running the same version of RQM etc.

Regards,
Joe
