Download of data from Test Link

[stevemerlan@yahoo.com]

We have an installation with a considerable amount of data. We\\\'d like to download some or all of it into .xml or csv or some other widely available format so we can duplicate records in another management system.

If we can select data by some set of criteria for conversion and download that would be best, but if we have to take it all that\\\'s acceptable too.

Is there a method provided in TestLink itself for something like this, or do we need to work with the database back end?

The people who installed TestLink and managed it at this company have left, and I\\\'ve inherited this problem, hence the newbie character of the question. I\\\'m reading through the documentation, but if I can get a quick answer that will help.

Thanks

Steve

There is no such feature yet.
You options are:

use ADODB backup feature (generates an XML)
Use PHPMYADMIN
Use MysqlAdministrator and generate a backup (is just a ASCII file
with SQL INSERT and CREATES)
