Testlink

Updated 1.7 demo

azl — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 22:32:46 +0000

The main demo has now been updated to point to 1.7.3.

There is still an old demo of Testlink 1.6 available if you need to access it for some reason. It is highly recommended all users upgrade to 1.7 as 1.6 is no longer being maintained and 1.7 offers significant benefits over 1.6.

API Beta Updates

azl — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 22:33:58 +0000

Many changes have been made to the Testlink API based on feedback. Please update your client API implementations to match these changes. The new API is available as a zip file or in the nightly builds.

API URL has moved to /lib/api/xmlrpc.php instead of /api/xmlrpc.php

5 additional methods are now available for testing

`tl.getProjects`	gets a list of all the projects in Testlink
tl.getProjectTestPlans	gets the Test Plans for a specific project
tl.getTestCasesForTestSuite	lists test cases within a test suite and its child suites or just within a specific suite
tl.getTestCaseIDByName	returns the ID of a specific test case based on the name of the test case
tl.createBuild	creates a new build associated with a specific test plan

Updated documentation for these methods is available

Updated client implementations and additional methods will be coming shortly

Please keep testing and sending feedback.

Testlink API Beta

azl — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 21:30:57 +0000

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.

Installing PEAR and Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer

azl — Thu, 22 Feb 2007 22:15:27 +0000

We have had many questions on how to install PEAR and Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer which are both now dependencies of Testlink. So here is some information on how to accomplish these tasks.
If you need to setup PEAR I have created a document for doing so on Windows. It is located at http://asiel.us/pear.php

Also here are the instructions I wrote for the INSTALL_NOTES as part of Testlink.

========================================
Installing pear
========================================
1. open a command prompt or terminal window
2. If php is not in your path cd to your php install directory (eg. c:\php5)
3. run “pear version” to make sure you have pear installed
3a. Download and run the go-pear script from http://pear.php.net/go-pear
3b. Read http://asiel.us/pear.php for detailed instructions on installing PEAR in windows
3b. If you need additional instructions go to http://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.getting.php
4. run “pear install -a Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-beta”
5. This should install the latest version of Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer and its dependencies
