XML import format

Youngling Beiträge: 3 Beitrittsdatum: 03.02.14 Neueste Beiträge
I am trying to import test cases using the XML format, as specified in the manual. However, I keep getting an error "Unable to upload the file, due to validation error: Invalid Format", which doesn't provide a lot of clues as to where I am going wrong. I am a bit of a beginner with XML, but this seems to be the best way to import our existing tests. Is there a sample XML (or XSD) file that I could use as a starting point for the import file creation?

Thanks

Hi Alan,

Welcome to the community.

It seems that this is missing from our documentation!

The XSD file may be found at http://www.klaros-testmanagement.com/files/klaros-testcases.xsd . I have added this to the documentation for the version 4.1.2.

Thanks for your interest in Klaros-Testmanagement. We're here to answer any further questions you might have.

Regards,
Patrick

Thank you for the schema file. However, it doesn't seem to have helped...

I have used the schema to auto-generate some valid XML. When I try to upload this I still get an "invalid format" error.

I have also tried exporting data from my test installation, stripping out all but the test cases. This fails validation against the schema, but successfully uploads. It doesn't create the tests I expect, but it's a useful datapoint.

I sort of expect that I can create an XML file which will import a series of testcases into the currently selected project. Have I understood correctly, or do I also need to define which project the cases will be added to?

Hi Alan,

The following (very) simple file will import a single test case consisting only of a name (also attached to this post):

<klaros:container xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
            xsi:schemaLocation="http://klaros-testmanagement.com/export-testcases-1.0"
            xmlns:klaros="http://klaros-testmanagement.com/export-testcases-1.0">
  <klaros:testcases>
    <klaros:testcase>
      <klaros:shortname>Test Case Name</klaros:shortname>
    </klaros:testcase>
  </klaros:testcases>
</klaros:container>


Hopefully this will help you.

In order to import it into the project with the ID P1 in Klaros-Testmanagement the following curl command may be used:

curl -v -T test-case-import.xml "http://localhost:18080/klaros-web/seam/resource/rest/import/testcase/xml?config=P00001"


of course replacing localhost with the hostname if not run on the computer running Klaros-Testmanagement.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Patrick
