ActionCanExecute is not triggered as it should, any solution/work around?

≪ Previous: Getting '' is not a valid floating point value error on trying to generate excel report in ALM_11

Hi,

I want to prevent the step edit dialog to be shown in certain cases when I double click on a step in test details in test plan, so I thought to do this with ActionCanExecute, but it seems this is not possible?

When I double click in the step details of a test in test plan, the step-edit dialog is sometimes shown before ActionCanExecute is triggered. This is a problem as ActionCanExecute needs to prevent that the step-edit dialog is shown in some cases.

When I double click in the gutter of the step details of a test in test plan, the dialog box is always shown. Here I need to have ActionCanExecute executed first as well to prevent opening this dialog box.

Can anyone help me with this? Is there an alternative/work around for ActionCanExecute or is there a reason why ActionCanExecute is not always executed (at the right time)?

Thanks!

I'm having the next issue adding users to QC ALM v 11.52:

1. On the administration site, 'Site Users' tab, I perform a LDAP import, once I get the user information and try to import it, I have the error 'Failed to create user. User [USER_ID] already exists'.

2. I try to search user on the user list and it says 'Match not found'.

3. I try to find out user on the App DB and is not there.

My assumption is that user is on memory or transaction has not been committed or... somewhere.

Is there a way to reset/flush app memory?

thanks in advance.

joining a steering board the project manager thrilled me with this fancy chart - fresh out of HPQC (HP quality Center)

unfortunatly it is very hard to read the numbers. this graphic ignores many design principles and is not supporting the task to show what is open and what's been done.

i am new into the software, but drafting a much better version was done in minutes.

how do you like this kind of approach: it is easy to see, what is finally out of trouble, and how many cases are open / in progress. since i don't see other contact option, i post my request within here..

enabling text search on a project.

January 19, 2015, 6:45 pm

≫ Next: set default value can be displayed in requirement module. "checkout"--> "Change comments" box.

≪ Previous: HPQC progress chart

I recently installed HP ALM 12 on one of our servers, Windows Server 2012 and MS SQL 2012 and set up a project.

However, I wish to turn on the text search function.

When I click on "Text Search" in the DB Servers area, I get the error "Failed to Set DBServers Properties".

In the HP ALM Admin Guide it states that the EXEC sp_fulltext_database 'enable' function must be used first, but Microsoft website states full text indexing is automatically turned on in MS SQL 2012 and can't be turned off, therefore the command is not used.

Any ideas on what is wrong? ps I'm no DB expert so please don't baffle me with techno-speak ;-)

I have created a custom project report in ALM which gives all the test instances and steps in it for a particular test set (which i have put the cursor on). the output is what i want but only thing is..in the report the test instances are coming in reverse order to what i have pulled to test set. ex: if i pull test cases into test set in A, B, C, D order, in the report it is coming as D,C,B,A. When in kept the Filter state(in Analysis menu ->[My project report]->config tab ) as "custom" it is generating all the test instances i have in ALM, but i want the test instances from the test set that i selected. i have tried every filter state option, but not getting what i want.

Any one please help. Thanks in advance.

If no of test case increases, it will be difficult to add in reverse to TS to what i want in report

Hi, I'm upgrading from QC10 to QC12. in 10 we used jboss and we could drop a .war file int the HP\quality Center\jboss\server\defualt\delopy folder and then use the custom scripts in the QC project to install our own addon to our users.

How can we do this in QC12 with jetty? It doesnt' seem to have some type of deploy folder or even a Jetty folder.

The way we have it in 10 is that the installer will run when the user tries to log in to a QC project if the user does not have the addon. We would like to accomplish the same thing in QC12

Requirement ID

Trace-to Requirement ID
Trace-to Requirement Name

I found an old post which seems related here using the last poster's sql;

SELECT
ft.rt_FROM_REQ_ID as 'ID From', /*Requirement.Req ID*/
fr.rq_REQ_NAME "Trace from" ,
r.RQ_REQ_ID "Req ID", /*Requirement.Req ID*/
r.RQ_REQ_NAME "Requirement",

left join REQ tr on tr.rq_REQ_ID = tt.rt_TO_REQ_ID
order by r.RQ_REQ_ID

(I removed the "WHERE r.RQ_TYPE_ID = 3" as I don't want to limit by TYPE)

however when I input this code into the query it returns an error as follows;

"The SQL Query has failed to run with the following error:

ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected"

I am using ALM 11.5.

Is there any hope for me to produce such a report?

The Business Reports fro Traceability are very useful but only show reports for Requirements with a Trace or Not. I want to view the report to show "Coverage" of Requriements by Requirements (not Tests).

Thanks in advance!

Defect Field List Dependency

January 21, 2015, 8:12 am

≫ Next: ALM Service access

≪ Previous: Remove the ability to delete comments

Hello All,

I have a requirement as below and trying to find out the options to implement a specific scenario through workflow

Status field list dependancy:

If the defect status is changed from new to open ,I was calling a pre defined list which has options to change further from "Open" status.

Ex: When I change status from new to open.my predefined list for open status future states will have values as "Assigned to Dev" ,"Assigned to BA" etc.Basically we have defined a defect life cycle and wanted to show only applicable status values which user can change to from open status etc.Like wise If its in "Assigned to BA" state next applicable status values could be "Reviewed" "Rejected" "More Info" etc.

I was able to implement above condition through workflow,however I was looking for an enhancement here.

Ex: A defect is in a "Assigned to BA" state, a BA opened that defect to change the state as he finished his review.So techincally at this point a defect is still in a state of "Assigned to BA" till he posts that defects.So at this point When he choose the drop down to pick a value of "Reviewed" which is a future state.So after user picks the value of Reviewed (defect not posted yet) here I am looking for a way to restrict the drop down to show only previous state "Assigned to BA" applicable status values but not the future state "Reviewed" list values since the defect is not posted yet.Only after the defect is posted and then the user returns to that record as it will be in "Reviewed" state then he has to see the future state values of "Reviewed".

The current code I have is immediately showing the future state values of the option i choose prior posting the defect.So I am looking for a way to differentiate between pre post drop down values and after post values for a certain state.Can some one please share any ideas on how to achieve this and in which action event we have to trigger the code in Defect workflow.

Thanks
