HELP! No Results of previous builds

Post by eeijlar »

Hi,

I have run tests on (for example) build 6. When I go to run tests on build 7 it doesn't show me the result of any test on the previous build. This is a disaster... It renders the tool utterly pointless. I have the filter set in the Execution pane:
Result on ALL Previous Builds [Any]

They don't show up. If I can't see what the result was on the previous build then how am I supposed to know which tests to re-run and which one's to leave.

Maybe I am missing something, help appreciated...

Testlink: 1.8.3

Hi,

Thanks for your reply...

I figured this out... it was disabled in the php config file. I don't know why this isn't enabled by default.

Whew! :wink:

I was about to put Testlink in the dust bin.

Edit the file config.inc.php, and change the line:

change the following lines to TRUE:

// TRUE -> the whole execution history for the choosen build will be showed
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->history_on = FALSE
// FALSE -> Only history of the current build will be shown [STANDARD BEHAVIOUR]
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->show_history_all_builds = FALSE;

Dear eeijlar,

thanks for the reply, that really help alot.

but the result filter still not working very smooth on my lab.

if i got three build
0203 active close 2TC fail
0204 active close 1TC fail
0205 active open new and not run

and filter option as below
Test Case ID =empty
Priority =any
Result =any
Result on ALL Previous Builds =fail
In Out = in
Assigned to -any

when filter on build 0205, the Result on ALL Previous Builds is not working, show no TC on tree.

when filter on build 0204, the Result on ALL Previous Builds is working, i can find the 2 failed TC on 0203, can't see the fail TC on 0204 itself.

when filter on build 0203, the Result on ALL Previous Builds is not working, show all TC.

is there any config need to enable?
PS. the Test Link is 1.8.5 no-beta

Hi,

Were the previous tests executed under a different Test Plan? If they were, you won't see the results of those. I think might be available under the new version 1.9

Hi,

I would like to add I am experiancing the same problem as kaien....where after setting the filter in exactly the same way and knowing I have failed test cases from previous builds is not showing any test cases.

Did you do this?
Edit the file config.inc.php, and change the line:

change the following lines to TRUE:

// TRUE -> the whole execution history for the choosen build will be showed
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->history_on = FALSE
// FALSE -> Only history of the current build will be shown [STANDARD BEHAVIOUR]
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->show_history_all_builds = FALSE;
