[SOLVED] How to update custom field using reportTCResult API

[asidhali]

Hi,
I am using perl xml rpc library to report test case results. I have a custom field called "config" for each test case during test case execution.
I am not able to find out how to update this custom field using rpc. In http://jetmore.org/john/misc/phpdoc-tes ... rtTCResult they have vaguely mentioned about using map , but I have no idea what that means. I tried using hash , but it did not work too. I was not able to find any sample code on the net too. Can some one please guide me in this regard.

Thanks,
Ashwin

use PHP sample clients provided with TL installation to fullt understood how call has to be done

In the php client examples, "array" is being used.
The equivalent to it in perl is "hash".
So, I tried -

Code: Select all

   my %ash=( "CF_EXE1" => "Configuration","CF_DT"=>"Configuration created by API");
   $response = $client->send_request('tl.reportTCResult',{
            'devKey'             => $APIKey,
            'testcaseexternalid' => $TCXID,
            'testplanid'         => $planID,
            'status'             => $TCStatus,
            'buildid'            => $buildID,
            'notes'              => $TCnotes,
            'platformname'       => $platformName,
            'customfields'       => %ash
            });

and its not working. I tried with key and value instead of CF_EXE1 and CF_DAT. I was still not able to make it work. I am clueless . Please let me know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks

figured it out. Slight part of confusion made me break head on this. working code is given below, for others -

Code: Select all

   $response = $client->send_request('tl.reportTCResult',{
            'devKey'             => $APIKey,
            'testcaseexternalid' => $TCXID,
            'testplanid'         => $planID,
            'status'             => $TCStatus,
            'buildid'            => $buildID,
            'notes'              => $TCnotes,
            'platformname'       => $platformName,
            'customfields'       => {'Configuration'=>'mxp320I'}
            });

Configuration is the CF name, and mxp320I is the CF value.
