Summary

0008180: Support dynamic values in the custom fields for Redmine for issue creation

Description

We would like to use some custom fields in redmine for some test case execution informations: build, platform etc.

The feature http://forum.testlink.org/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=7779 [^] allows us to use redmine issue description field for that, but it is not so good for reporting/analysing etc.

Our idea is to use the same placeholders as in the mentioned feature description from for forum with some more placeholders for values without labels:
'%%EXECID_VAL%%', '%%TESTER_VAL%%','%%TESTPLAN_VAL%%','%%PLATFORM_VAL%%',
'%%BUILD_VAL%%', '%%EXECTS_VAL%%','%%EXECSTATUS_VAL%%'.

In the static configuration section for custom fields of redmine the mentions placeholders can be used for values.

So we get our test case execution properties automatically into redmine at the issue creation.

Steps To Reproduce

Sample configuration for redmine custom fields on testlink side:

  <custom_fields type="array">
   <custom_field id="19" name="Testlink Build">
     <value>%%BUILD_VAL%%</value>
  </custom_field>
  </custom_fields>

Additional Information

Implemented in two commits:
https://github.com/kostgr/testlink-code/commit/9649093673613f60a29cfc2248b70d9ec12e770e [^]

and then
https://github.com/kostgr/testlink-code/commit/433330699bdcd789c9c44dd56b798cc25a51e221 [^]

The first commit unfortunately is combined with another feature (always adding two links to TestLink at creating issue in bugtracking system instead of one - direct link to execution report was added in addition to the link to test case execution)

Notes
(0027155) fman (administrator) 2018-01-16 23:15	Please provide clear distinct PULL REQUEST, in order to allow a CLEAR HISTORY of commits on the base code LOG. I do not think that will be a lot difficult for you Thanks a lot

(0027160) kostgr_2 (reporter) 2018-01-17 07:31 edited on: 2018-01-17 07:31	For someone experienced with git its not as hard to use the infos. I have to find time to do extra work. The issue here is that our commits have to be splitted and that some of changes are based on the other ones. I had to reimplement the changes to split them correctly. It tooks time and brings no gain for us. If you would want to accept both changes, than it would be much easier. Otherwise the separate pull requests would also conflict with one another.

(0027164) fman (administrator) 2018-01-20 20:28	Refactored: Same keys used for replacement on notes (original implementation), and for Custom Fields for Redmine, except EXECNOTES Need to be tested
