Is it possible to read QC manual testcase steps with QTP?

If yes, how?

Thanks,

Pseudo Code, might have to tweak it to make it work

Code:


Set oTest = QCUtil.CurrentTest
Set oSteps = oTest.DesinStepFactory
Set allSteps = oSteps.NewList("")

For each oStep in allSteps
   Print oStep.StepName
   Print oStep.StepDescription
   Print oStep.StepExpectedResult
Next

Hi Tarun,

Code:

Set TDConnection = QCUtil.TDConnection
Set treeManager =  TDConnection.TreeManager
Set node = treeManager.nodebypath("Subject\Browsers Besides IE6")  
Set testList = node.FindTests("Firefox")
Print testList.Count
Set oTest = testList.Item(1)
Print oTest.Name
Set oSteps = oTest.DesignStepFactory
Set allSteps = oSteps.NewList("")

For each oStep in allSteps
	Print oStep.StepName
    	Print oStep.StepDescription
	Print oStep.StepExpectedResult
	'Print oStep.StepPrerequisite     'Customized QC field
Next

I tried the above code, it work's fine for 3 standard QC fields, but getting an error in retrieving customized QC filed value. I have an additional filed "Prerequisite" in QC.

Print oStep.Prerequisite ' Error: Object doesn't support this method for retrieving Customized QC field value.

Thanks,
-T Reddy

Any update from senior members here?

I am trying to get params count, but it is always returning zero. I have 4 params for that testcase.

Set TDConnection = QCUtil.TDConnection
Set treeManager = TDConnection.TreeManager
Set node = treeManager.nodebypath("Subject\Browsers Besides IE6")
Set testList = node.FindTests("Firefox")
Print testList.Count
Set oTest = testList.Item(1)
Print oTest.Params.Count 'Params Count

Thanks,
-Reddy

Try this

Msgbox oTest.Params.NewList("").Count

and for oStep.StepPrerequisite you will need to use the actual field name i guess

Print oStep.Field("DS_USER_01")

Hi Tarun,
Thanks for the quick update.

Quote:

Msgbox oTest.Params.NewList("").Count

I tried this before and it's giving object doesn't support this method.

Quote:

You mean to say actual filed name from QC database.

Quote:

Print oStep.Field("DS_USER_01")

This prints nothing.

It won't print anything as i don't know which field you are actually using and you will have to check that in QC customize settings. For the first it should be

oTest.Params.Count only, may be you are not in the correct test. Try using Msgbox oTest.Name to make sure you are using the correct test. And are you using any templates in that test?

Tarun,

I am pointing to correct script and able to retrieve data for the standard 3 params with the help of your first reply on this thread.

Print oStep.StepName
Print oStep.StepDescription
Print oStep.StepExpectedResult

Looks like oTest.Params.Count is not working.

Thanks,
-Reddy

It works for me. The key points here are

- A param for a template call is not considered as Test param, it is Step param.
- Parameters sepcified in QTP File->Settings...>Parameters(Tab) should not be confused with there params as they are totally different.

Many thanks Tarun......

Running QTProfessional.bat solved my problem. I was scratching my head for 2 hours on this yesterday.
