Hi,

 

I am a Newbie to ALM. I have experience in running Load Test from Controller.  I have created scripts using Vugen. I want to load these scripts into ALM and conduct load test. ALM verion is 11.51. I have some doubts in ALM. 

1.ALM by default will have controller or i have install the controller in the same server & link it?

2.What are steps to run a load test from the ALM?

 

 


Exporting business requirements into an Excel including the attachments?

$

0

In my current project we write and trace business requirements in the HP ALM 11.0. At this stage we have a requirement to pull up the BRD (Business Req Doc) from the ALM itself, in a tabular format, preferably in an excel spreadsheet. However every time I export the requirements, the attachments from the reqs' are missing! The "select columns" function doesn't give us the option to include the attachments.

Any idea how to export the business reqs into an excel sheet including the attachments? Would be great help if anyone can give any points or hinters.

 

TY,

1.  Name

2. Author

3. Description

4. Priority

5. Attachments

 

The attachments within the requirements are the key and most essential part here. Can someone help me with the basic SQL query for this?

"Select Tests" option is not available when tring to move tests to a test set in test lab

$

We have a networked instanced of ALM 11.52.

We could previously use the Select Tests option to add tests to test sets in the Test Lab.

 

For some reason it stopped working just before xmas.

 

When we access test lab or try the test execution tab we get a dialog box with the message "The specified action does not exist"

 

When you create, or select an existing Test Set in the Test Lab, the "Select Tests" option on the top menu is greyed out?

 

We have tried creating a new domain with a new project on the ALM instance but still get the same problem.  We have anumber of projects and all have the same issue?

 

Does anyone know what could of caused this?  I don;t thinkk the ALM server was updated.

MS Word 2013 & HP ALM Templates

The HP ALM "template creator" macro does not appear to work in MS Word 2013. I have enabled macros, restarted the machine, tried to access it via the "create a new template" as well as in pre-existing templates... no matter what, Word just crashes when I launch the macro(s) that would enable the "template creator" tab.  I haven't seen anything else about this anywhere online or in the forums. 

 

Is HP ALM compatible with MS 2013? Please help.

Force Requirement link for Test Case

In my previous company I worked on a QC10 instance that was set up to ensure the following:

 

Before a test case can be moved from Test Plan to Test Lab, the test case had to have a Requirement Linked to it via the "Req Coverage" tab within Test Plan.

 

Is there a setting I can use to achieve this or do I need to create a script to enforce this check. 

Can I invoke "Run Now" in Admin for calculating KPI from Workflow?

Hi,

 

Now I am trying to use KPIs for my relase status.

However, by default, it is calculated daily based. I checked Admin and I see the only option for "Calculation Recurrence" is 24 hours.

1. is it possible to have smaller "Calculation Recurrence"?

 

I see the other option is to use "Run Now" button in Project Details in Admin.

I wonder if user can have up-to-dated KPI value when user check scorecard.

 

2. I wonder if it is possible that i add a button in Release module to invoke "Run Now" by using workflow.

 

3. do you have any better idea?

 

Many thanks.

Executing Selenium tests from QC/ALM

Hi

 

Trying to execute selenium tests from QC.

I know I must create a VAPI-XP test, but I need to report on pass and fail.

The normal VAPI XP script just accounts for executing  and not the actual pass or fail of the test.
Does anyone have a sample script, have already Searched on google and other forums, they suggested posting

here as it is a QC issue and not selenium...

Hi,

 

I have added custom fields to the TestSet entity. I also ticked 'history'  when defining the fields.

Now I want a breakdown in a summary graph using these custom fields. But unfortunately these new fields do not show in either the 'group by' drop down box or the 'X-axis' drop down box.

 

Searching the forum I could not find the answer, but perhaps someone can help me please.

 

Thanks.

QC Testing > Test Plan > Call to Test with Parameters accessed in the caller.

Hello,

 

I have manual tests, TestA  which "Calls to Test" TestB which has parameters.

 

On run, the parameters for TestB are correctly asked for.

 

Is there any way for the caller (TestA) to get access to the values entered for TestB?

 

 

Or put it another way.
Is there any way to have parameters that are common to a master test and all the "Call to Test" tests?

 

 

Thanks

Recycle bin in HP ALM

$

I know I know..this has been discussed multiple times here on the forum where everybody mentioned that currently building a feature of Recycle bin is not feasible.

 

I am again trying to put same question- Can we build recycle bin feature in HP ALM. I googled and found that it is really possible to create this using the workflows and OTA. I am not a programmer , hence finding it difficult to implement.

 

Here are my thoughts to build this-

 

Lets take an example of Test Plan module-

1.Create a folder in Test Plan named as "Recycle Bin", direct child node to Subject folder

 

2.Build a feature , where when Test Case is deleted,it really not get deleted ( Test_CanDelete =False)  and moved to Recycle Bin folder with renaming the test cases by appending time stamp of deletion

 

3.When Test are deleted from Recycle Bin folder- then normal Delete feature of ALM being called and all test cases deleted

 

4. For recycle bin folder- Users not allowd it rename it, delete it or move it.

 

I need your help.

Hello colleagues,

 

We need a functionality to seach for duplicate defects programmatically in HP ALM. Is there a way to do this? I think HP offers a functionality to find similar defects which is a manual process, is there a REST or OTA api available for that?
