I want to execute the case of first step

hello Developer:
how to execute the case step by step and write back the result of every step

Hello Freetime312,

the current supported TestLink Release 1.14 itself does not support to set execution results step by step via the xml rpc api.

But the current TestLink development release 1.15 seams to extend the api method reportTCResult(), see

• http://mantis.testlink.org/view.php?id=7313
• TestLinkOpenSourceTRMS/testlink-code@f8a25e4

If you have time, it would be helpful, when play around a little bit with that new TL function and maybe create an extension for TestLink-API-Python-client, which I can integrated.

I will have this time not before February .

Hello Luiko:
could you please tell me how to conmunicate python and testlink with XMLRPC?

Hello freetime312,

When I understand the Testlink changes

• TestLinkOpenSourceTRMS/testlink-code@f8a25e4#diff-7b68ef267ed1cf927e5e0287479480f0R2291

you have luck and need no code changes inside the python client. You just have to call reportTCresult() with an additional optional argument steps .
Something like

newResult = myTestLink.reportTCResult(None, newTestPlanID_A, None, 'f', '', guess=True,
                                      testcaseexternalid=tc_aa_full_ext_id,
                                      platformname=NEWPLATFORM_A,
                                      execduration=3.9, timestamp='2015-09-18 14:33'
                      steps=[  {'step_number' : 6, 'results' : 'p', 'notes" : 'result note for passed step 6'}, 
                                   {'step_number' : 7, 'results' : 'f', 'notes" : 'result note for failed step 7'}]  )

General reportTCResult() examples see https://github.com/lczub/TestLink-API-Python-client/blob/master/example/TestLinkExample.py
