Unable to see Imported Test Steps for a Test Case

Post by tarun333kumar »

Hello All,

I am trying to learn TestLink (TestLink 1.9 (Beta 3 - Development)) and faced with a problem of importing test case.
I import test case using XLS, having predefined file format (name, summary, steps and expectedresults).
After import I see only 'name' and 'summary' while 'steps' and 'expectedresults' are missing for the test case.

I searched on Defect DB and this forum but did not find any similar issue.
Could any one please confirm on this?

K, I tried to have it done using XML. I converted my excel tests in xml which could be fed to TestLink.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 11%29.aspx

Generated xml file is -

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<testcases xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
	<testcase name="Login">
		<summary>LoginSummary</summary>
		<steps>FIrst Step
Second Step
Third Step</steps>
		<expectedresults>Dashbaord</expectedresults>
	</testcase>
	<testcase name="Logout">
		<summary>LogoutSummary</summary>
		<steps>Step First
Step Second</steps>
		<expectedresults>Dashbaord</expectedresults>
	</testcase>
	<testcase name="Interface">
		<summary>InterfaceSummary</summary>
		<steps>No Step</steps>
		<expectedresults>None</expectedresults>
	</testcase>
</testcases>
I fed same file to my TestLink (TestLink 1.9 (Beta 3 - Development)) and again did not get to see Test Steps though Test Case was created.

To double check I also uploaded same XML file to sand box available to us at http://testlink.sourceforge.net/demo and got to steps. I uploaded this under Test Suite - "Test Suite Attempt #1" and got to see all steps.

Is it a defect with TestLink 1.9 (Beta 3 - Development)?[/url][/code]

Should I not be using - TestLink 1.9 (Beta 3 - Development) version and move to some old version?
Thanks

Hi there,

I'm facing the same problem as above, tried with either XLS or XML format but the 'steps' and 'expectedresults' are missing for the test case.

Is there any way to sort this out?

Regards,
Nghiep

XML works without ANY ISSUE
Check your XML file
Best Advice:
create on test case as much complete / complex as possibile, export it and then analize generated file.
Unfortunatelly we are in big delay with documentation
XLS is NOT SUPPORTED (and there are no plans to support it).

Hi All,

I am using TestLink 1.9.3 version. I tried to import some testcases as xls format and every row had four columns. Nothing is imported. I was able to import in earlier version. what can be the reason?
