Test Link and Bugzilla - Configuration

[Kathirvel]

Hi All,

I have completed the Test Link 1.9 installation and am in the process of completing the configuration.I need to integrate Bugzilla with Test Link.I have gone through the installation manual but got confused with some of the steps.I have configured the below parameters in bugzilla.cfg.php file :

define('BUG_TRACK_DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_NAME', 'bugs');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_CHARSET', 'UTF-8');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_TYPE','mysql');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_USER', 'root');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_PASS', 'password');

I thought the above changes would be enough to integrate Bugzilla with Test Link.But then I got confused by reading the manul which talks about TRAC configuration.I have no idea if we really need this to integrate Bugzilla with Test Link.Please let me know TRAC configuration and the complete steps to integrate Bugzilla with Test Link.Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Kathir

Thanks for your valuable and quick response.I have already gone through the installation manuals and then raised the above doubt.

on TL distrubution there is a PDF with details for MANTIS AND BUGZILLA detailed explanation.

Thanks.I have done the below changes:

In bugzilla.cfg.php file:

define('BUG_TRACK_DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_NAME', 'bugs');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_CHARSET', 'UTF-8');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_TYPE','mysql');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_USER', 'root'); //MySQL user name
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_PASS', 'password');//MySQL password
define('BUG_TRACK_HREF', "http://10.226.142.134:90/show_bug.cgi?id="); //** link of the web server */
define('BUG_TRACK_ENTER_BUG_HREF',"http://10.226.142.134:90/enter_bug.cgi");//** link to the bugtracking system, for entering new bugs */

In custom_config.inc.php file:

Added the below line:

$g_interface_bugs = 'BUGZILLA';

I have followed all the steps mentioned in the document downloaded from the TL distrubution.But still I am not getting the 'Bug Management' icon in the failed test cases.

Request you to please verify if the above changes I have done in those 2 files are correct.Please help.

Kathir

bug management icon has to be present no matter test case exec status, you will find it on the execution table after executing test case

Thanks.I have made the following changes to integrate Test Link 1.9 with Bugzilla.Please verify if these changes are correct.The reason why I need your help is that even after these changes , I am not seeing the Bug Management icon in Test Link 1.9.

In bugzilla.cfg.php file:

define('BUG_TRACK_DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_NAME', 'bugs');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_CHARSET', 'UTF-8');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_TYPE','mysql');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_USER', 'bugs'); //'bugs' DB user name
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_PASS', 'password');//'bugs' DB password
define('BUG_TRACK_HREF', "http://10.226.142.134:90/show_bug.cgi?id="); //** link of the web server */
define('BUG_TRACK_ENTER_BUG_HREF',"http://10.226.142.134:90/enter_bug.cgi");//** link to the bugtracking system, for entering new bugs */

In custom_config.inc.php file:

You shouldn't need to worry about TRAC.

In what directory is your "bugzilla.cfg.php" file located?

Are your bugzilla and testlink databases on the same server? For BUG_TRACK_DB_HOST, try the IP address instead of 'localhost'.

Also, for BUG_TRACK_DB_CHARSET, I use a value of "utf8" instead of "UTF-8", although that probably makes little difference.

Other than above, your settings look fine to me.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

"bugzilla.cfg.php" file is located under this path:C:\wamp\www\testlink\cfg

Yes , my bugzilla and testlink databases are on the same server.For Bugzilla , I am using MySQL 5.0 and for Test Link , I am using the wamp server which has got MySQL 5.5.8 in it.Both are installed on the same server machine.

Here is the code changes as per your instructions:

define('BUG_TRACK_DB_HOST', '10.226.142.134');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_NAME', 'bugs');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_TYPE','mysql');
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_USER', 'bugs');//'bugs' DB user name
define('BUG_TRACK_DB_PASS', 'password');//'bugs' DB password
define('BUG_TRACK_HREF', "http://10.226.142.134:90/show_bug.cgi?id=");
define('BUG_TRACK_ENTER_BUG_HREF',"http://10.226.142.134:90/enter_bug.cgi?product=JATO Speedwing BTD");

Even after the above changes are done , I couldnt see the Bugs Management Icon in the test execution page.Please help.

I'm using bugzilla and TestLink. I think that TestLink could be better, but is easy to use, fast .... the server is my own PC (ubuntu 6, Apache, MySQL) and it runs very fast.
When I found a bug in a test case, I insert it in bugzilla and add a link in TestLink.
