Testlink API Beta at Testlink

Testlink API Beta

Published by azl November 19th, 2007 in announcements, beta.

The Testlink API is finally ready for testing! The code should work with cvs head (1.8) and the 1.7 branch. It will show up in the nightly builds (only in head). As this is a beta it is not yet recommended you install this on a production system. Please file any bugs you find to mantis. Sample client implementations are also available in PHP, Ruby, Python, and Java. There is also API Documentation available. Currently only TC execution results can be reported through the API, and other methods are coming soon. If there are other methods you’d like to see please comment.

Installation

Backup your original database or create a copy for testing
Download the api code in one of the following ways
1. Download latest code from nightly builds
2. Download API only zip
Execute api_sql_changes.sql against your db inside the /api directory
Insert a row into the api_developer_keys table with a developer_key for testingExample:
INSERT INTO `api_developer_keys` ( `id` , `developer_key` , `user_id` ) VALUES ( NULL , 'testKey', '1' );
See one of the client implementation samples to see how to interact with the API.
