Unfortunately, you cannot unarchive a test resource from the RQM UI (https://jazz.net/jazz02/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/52743). You can use Poster to make a REST call, but it's unsupported:

https://<server>/service/com.ibm.rqm.planning.common.service.rest.ITestCaseRestService/archiveTestCases?uuids_versionable=<test>&archive=false&processArea=<project>

I tried the URL (http instead of https) using Firefox and got a file returned

archiveTestCases

how can I open it?

Try any text editor.

Thanks Paul,

I only see something like this



In some editor it shows something like

NAK   ETX   SOH    NUL    STX   STX

and I do not see that the test case was restored back. I understand that NAK is not a good sign at all. But I have no idea why my request like this was declined. Any idea Paul?

719057 is the ID of the deleted test case and 4-p9oI2WEd6VtItmR49FfQ
 is the project area.

Unfortunately, we cannot persue this further since this is not a public API.  To restore resources, see As a User, I want to restore artifacts from the Trash/Audit view (80449).

Jared elaborated more based on your idea. http://jaredrussell.wordpress.com/

Then I realized that I cared too much about the result and tried your URL immediately with firefox once I saw it, never read it again until I came across Jared article and realized it was for REST API.

Hi Paul

Thanks for the feedback. I suspected this might be the case.

I deleted the test cases while modifying the "suspecct" status in the View Test Cases. I was selecting mulitple test cases and changing the status but rather stupidly selected delete instead.

Is there any way of changing the permissions on who can delete a test case (and by this I mean total delete and not just removing the association with a test plan)? I looked on the roles/permissions section of the JTS but could not find a field relating to the Deletion of test cases.

Cheers

Una

Unfortunately, you cannot set a delete permission on test cases.
