Unable to copy TestCase using RQMCopyUtility

Hi,

Currently we are in process of migrating our test artifacts from one RQM server to another and to do this we are using the RQMCopyUtility. To perform a test run of the utility I wanted to run it against one single TestCase in the source system. Apparently the Utility is failing giving an error with regard to the syntax. From what i can make out the "id" attribute what am passing "might" not be in the correct format.

Below is a detailed list of the syntax using which am running the CopyUtility and the log output.

Source url of the test case :

https://mySOURCE.ibm.com:9443/jazz/web/console/WorkbenchTest#action=com.ibm.rqm.planning.home.actionDispatcher&subAction=viewTestCase&id=259

Two options i passed as arguments to run the script :

a.
C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SDP\jdk\bin\java -jar RQMCopyUtility.jar -s=https://mySOURCE.ibm.com:9443/jazz/web/console/WorkbenchTest -us=shivakla@in.ibm.com -pws=myPWD -d=https://myDESTINATION.ibm.com:9444/qm/web/console/IMDM_2012%20SB%20QM -ud=shivakumar.lakshminarayana@in.ibm.com -pwd=myPWD -a=testcase -id="259" -l=importlog.txt -pl=progressLog.txt

b.
C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SDP\jdk\bin\java -jar RQMCopyUtility.jar -s=https://mySOURCE.ibm.com:9443/jazz/web/console/WorkbenchTest -us=shivakla@in.ibm.com -pws=myPWD -d=https://myDESTINATION.ibm.com:9444/qm/web/console/IMDM_2012%20SB%20QM -ud=shivakumar.lakshminarayana@in.ibm.com -pwd=myPWD -a=testcase -id="com.ibm.rqm.planning.home.actionDispatcher&subAction=viewTestCase&id=259" -l=importlog.txt -pl=progressLog.txt

Importlog.txt output :

17-May-2012 01:00:14 com.ibm.rqm.ct.util.Logger logInfo

Keen on knowing if the syntax error that its pointing is with regard to the way i am passing the testcaseID or if am missing anything.

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Hi @shivakla,
I think you should use base url
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RqmApi#baseUrl
in your case the source url should be
https://mySOURCE.ibm.com:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/WorkbenchTest
and destinationURL should be
https://myDESTINATION.ibm.com:9444/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/IMDM_2012%20SB%20QM
you can refer to https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMCopyUtility for more information.

Hi Ho Wan,

I tried running the script with giving the url in the format as mentioned in your reply but still getting the same (syntax) error. Anything with regard to the id argument that you think am sending wrong?

Cheers,
Shiv

Hi @shivakla,
in you source url and destination url, you use the different context
one is "jazz" another is "qm", do you use different version of RQM, such as RQM 2.0 as source and RQM 3.0 as destination?

Hi Ho Wan,

Both the servers are on RQM 3.0.1.1

But one thing is that the (source) server which has the folder strucutre /jazz was earlier in RQM2.0 which has been recently upgraded to RQM3.0

Hi @shivakla,
I think you are using internal id 259, which the correct way is
id=urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:259.
by the way, my name is Hao Wan, not "Ho Wan", :-)

Hi Hao Wan

Sorry for the confusion reg the name :)

I did try giving the new id format but still same outcome.

C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SDP\jdk\bin\java -jar RQMCopyUtility.jar -s=https://mySource.ibm.com:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/WorkbenchTest -us=shivakla@in.ibm.com -pws=myPwd -d="https://myDestination.ibm.com:9444/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/IMDM_2012%20SB%20QM" -ud=shivakumar.lakshminarayana@in.ibm.com -pwd=myPwd -a=testcase -id=urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:259 -l=importlog.txt -pl=progressLog.txt

The logs still say Syntactically incorrect.

Shiv

Hi Shiv,
would you please try the following link?
https://mySource.ibm.com:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/WorkbenchTest/testcase/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:259
in your browser to see if can display the correct testcase XML.

Hi @shivakla,
then you can using the url
https://mySource.ibm.com:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/WorkbenchTest/testcase

whether the testcase exist and check the correct internal/external id.

All thanks to HaoWan's help am now able to proceed with running the RQMCopyUtility

Some of the key things to take away which i was not passing correctly

a. Source and Destination URLs needs to be in the form

https://<server_name>

:9443/jazz/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/<project_alias>

You can get your project alias using the following url format

https://<server_name>:9444/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/projects

b. Test case ID needs to be in the form

-id=urn:com.ibm.rqm:testcase:<testcase_id>

To ensure everything is fine one can append the source url with the testcase ID parameter and see if you are able to open the testcase ( or the corresponding test artifact )

Hope that helps.
