test_linker

Description

This is a Ruby wrapper around the TestLink XMLRPC API, thus allowing access to your TestLink test projects, plans, cases, and results using Ruby. We’ve added a few helper methods as well to allow for getting at more of your data a little easier. This supports TestLink APIs 1.0 Beta 5 (from TestLink 1.8.x) and 1.0 (from TestLink 1.9.x).

Features

  • Basic wrapper around existing XMLRPC functions.

  • Allow for calling methods via Ruby style (#projects) or XMLRPC style (#getProjects).

  • Support for TestLink API versions 1.0 Beta 5 and 1.0.

  • Only one error/exception type: TestLinker::Error.

  • Limited set of helper methods, attempting to fill in gaps from the API.

Examples

Get results to a CSV file:

require 'test_linker'
require 'pp'

server = 'http://testlink'
dev_key = "90b7941411928ae0a84d19f365a01a63"
tl_project = "My nifty project"
tl = TestLinker.new(server, dev_key)

# Write out the CSV headers
csv_file_name = "report.csv"
csv_file = File.new(csv_file_name, "w")
csv_file.write "Build,Passed,Failed,Blocked,TOTAL,Overall %,Overall % (+B)\n"

# Get the list of test plans that I want to report on
project_id = tl.project_id tl_project
test_plans = tl.find_test_plans(project_id, /^Component.+1.0/)
puts "All test plans for project #{project_id}"
pp test_plans

# Get a list of all builds from those test plans
builds = test_plans.collect do |test_plan|
  tl.builds_for_test_plan(test_plan[:id])
end
builds.flatten!

overall = {}
overall[:pass] = 0
overall[:failed] = 0
overall[:blocked] = 0
results = {}

# Total up results for each build and write to the CSV file
builds.each do |build|
  results[:pass] = 0
  results[:failed] = 0
  results[:blocked] = 0

  test_cases = tl.test_cases_for_test_plan(build[:testplan_id],
    { :buildid => build[:id] })

  test_cases.each_value do |test_case|
    case test_case[:exec_status]
    when "p"
      results[:pass] += 1
    when "f"
      results[:failed] += 1
    when "b"
      results[:blocked] += 1
    end
  end

  overall[:pass] += results[:pass]
  overall[:failed] += results[:failed]
  overall[:blocked] += results[:blocked]
  build_total = results[:pass] + results[:failed] + results[:blocked]

  overall_rate = "%2.2f" % (overall[:pass] * 100 / (overall[:pass] +
      overall[:failed]).to_f)
  overall_rate_plus_blocked = "%2.2f" % (overall[:pass] * 100 / (overall[:pass] +
      overall[:failed] + overall[:blocked]).to_f)

  csv_line = "#{build[:name]},#{results[:pass]},#{results[:failed]},#{results[:blocked]},"
  csv_line << "#{build_total},#{overall_rate},#{overall_rate_plus_blocked}\n"
  csv_file.write csv_line
end

csv_file.close

Requirements

  • Rubies (tested)

    • 1.8.7

    • 1.9.2

    • jruby 1.6.1

    • ree 1.8.7

  • Gems

    • versionomy, ~> 0.4.0

  • Gems (development)

    • bundler, ~> 1.0.0

    • cucumber, ~> 0.10.0

    • fakeweb, ~> 1.3.0

    • rspec, ~> 2.5.0

    • simplecov, >= 0.4.0 (MRI 1.9.x only)

    • yard, ~> 0.6.0

Getting it all running (on the TestLink side):

  1. Enable automation in the TestLink config file:

    config.inc.php => $tlCfg->api->enabled = TRUE;

  2. The user that needs to run the automated tests needs to generate a API key

that will be used in creating the connection. This is accomplished by logging in to TestLink and going to “Personal -> API Key -> Generate a new key”.

Install

$ gem install test_linker
