RQMUrlutility - Create a new executionworkitem

0
Bengt Augustsson (16●1) | asked Nov 21 '11, 3:22 a.m.
We can't create a new executionworkitem through the REST API using RQMUrlutility.

We can succesfully GET a executionworkitem, but using PUT to create a new seems harder then expected. 

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command PUT -user xxxx -password xxxx -filepath c:\rqmurl\ter.xml -url https://xxx/jazz/service/com.i

m.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/project/executionworkitem


The ter.xml file is the same file as the GET but without the tags identification and webId.


Has anyone been succesfull creating new TER? If so, please give me some directions.

/Best Regards, Bengt

I am assuming you are seeing a 303 (See Other) response code. A TER can only be associated to one test case so if you are PUTting/POSTing a duplicate TER (e.g. same test case), you will get a 303 with the ID of the original TER in the Content Location header of the response.

If you are not receiving a 303 response code, what is the error?

Ok, I have tried with a new test case but without any success.

If we start from the beginning.

Is the following syntax? 

java -jar RQMUrlUtility.jar -command PUT -user xxxx -password xxxx -filepath c:\rqmurl\ter.xml -url https://xxxx/jazz/service/com.i 

m.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/project/executionworkitem -context jazz


ter.xml (seems as I can't post it correctly): 



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> 

- <ns2:executionworkitem xmlns:ns5="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/v0.1/" xmlns:ns6="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/executionworkitem/v0.1" xmlns:ns7="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/tsl/v0.1/" xmlns:ns8="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/executionresult/v0.1" xmlns:ns10="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/qmadapter/v0.1" xmlns:ns9="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/testscript/v0.1/" xmlns:ns11="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/qmadapter/task/v0.1" xmlns:ns1="http://schema.ibm.com/vega/2008/" xmlns:ns2="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/" xmlns:ns3="http://jazz.net/xmlns/alm/qm/v0.1/catalog/v0.1" xmlns:ns4="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">

Are you using the project area alias (see https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi#projectAlias) for project in the -url?

If the project alias would be wrong, could I really be succesfull using a GET then? GET is working, POST is not.

Right now I get following error message from the utility - RQMUrlUtility: Server Response code: 415

Correct.

I believe you are running into https://jazz.net/jazz02/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/58732.

Correct.

I believe you are running into https://jazz.net/jazz02/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/58732.


How can I use the workaround (using PUT) as PUT needs an item ID, which I don't have as the item should be created?

The RQM Reportable REST API can create resources using a PUT request with an external ID (see https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi#External_ID). For example,

PUT https://<RQM>:<RQM>/<RQM>/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/<RQM>/executionworkitem/1234

However, TERs (or executionworkitem) are considered equal when they reference the same test case(s). As such, a PUT request with an external ID turns into an update of the existing TER (or executionworkitem) with a different ID.

I'm using RQM Reportable REST API to create TER and ER records using http PUT. I can successfully create TER and ER OK for the first time and they are associated to each other as well as to the right test case and test script. However, I cannot create a new TER if my test case already has a TER and got http 303 error.

What do I need to do to trigger a creation of new TER for a particular test case? Is it in the TER xml file?

Here is my cmd:

PUT https://<RQM>:<RQM>/<RQM>/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/<RQM>/executionworkitem/ter123.xml

Thanks,

You cannot create more than one test execution record per test case, environment, plan, and milestone.

Thanks Paul,

Since a TC will be reused in future releases for regression testing, I would like to be able to create a new TER to represent the results per release/iteration/etc...

I'm using the RQMUrlUtil to try out the REST interface and getting a 303.
I'm trying to link the TER to an existing TC that already has a few TERs associated with it.

I have tried to create it against that TC and a new Test Plan for the new release and I'm still getting a 303.

What then is the recommended way to use this interface to generate a new TER against an existing TC, without having to create a new copy of that TC every time?

From GUI I can create new TER for a given test case. Will RQM REST API add support for this in the future? Can I query existing TER for a given test case? If so, please let me know how. At least I can add new ER to existing TER of a test case.

Thanks,

You cannot create more than one test execution record per test case, environment, test plan, and milestone/iteration in the RQM Reportable REST API or RQM UI.  You must have changed one/more of these test execution record properties.

Note, the RQM URL Utility does not support query string (e.g. request parameters) and fragment ID.  I would suggest using Poster and/or HttpRequester.

Using fields selection/filtering, you can query test execution records based on a given test case.
