Issue 1538 — execSetResults.php deep-link workframe 500 'Bad Test Project ID': getSettingsAndFilters() fallback reads $_REQUEST[prop] instead of $REQUEST[setting*]

Issue: #1538 Branch: fix/issue-1538-getsettingsandfilters Status: VERIFIED-FIXED

Symptom

After the #1537 ltx.php fatal was fixed, execution deep links — the inner flow (ltx.php?load&item=exec&build_id=..&feature_id=.., workframe built at ltx.php process_exec():212-217) and the modern assigned-tc links (mainPage.html:516, tcAssignments.html:354) — rendered the execNavigator dashboard (tree frame) but the exec workframe (lib/execute/execSetResults.php?level=testcase&version_id=..&id=..&setting_testplan=..&setting_build=..&setting_platform=..) returned HTTP 500 Uncaught Exception: Bad Test Project ID (execSetResults.php:706). The testcase results pane never loaded. 100% of form-tokenless deep links affected.

Repro steps

  1. Log in as admin at http://localhost:8082 (admin/admin).
  2. Fixtures: php tmp/fixtures_1538.php (project DL id=37, testplan Plan DL id=38, testsuite Fixture Suite id=39, tcase node 40, tcversion 41, platform Win10 id=9, build id=3, testplan_tcversions id=3 @ platform 9).
  3. GET /lib/execute/execSetResults.php?level=testcase&version_id=41&id=40&setting_testplan=38&setting_build=3&setting_platform=9 (no form_token — exactly the URL ltx.php builds for the workframe).
  4. Before fix: HTTP 500, empty body; app server log (tmp/php_server.log): [500]: GET /lib/execute/execSetResults.php?level=testcase&version_id=41&id=40&setting_testplan=38&setting_build=3&setting_platform=9 - Uncaught Exception: Bad Test Project ID in .../lib/execute/execSetResults.php:706.

Expected: HTTP 200 rendering the execution pane for the resolved testplan/build/platform with the testcase steps and Passed/Failed/Blocked controls, exactly like a normal navigator flow.

Root cause

init_args() (execSetResults.php:546) → getSettingsAndFilters() (execSetResults.php:2275) maps props to cache keys:

$settings = [
  'tplan_id'    => 'setting_testplan',
  'build_id'    => 'setting_build',
  'platform_id' => 'setting_platform',
];

The loop (:2304) seeds each prop from the session cache (isset($cache[$cacheKey])); with no form_token the cache is null, so every prop falls through to the form-tokenless fallback (:2307-2311):

// BEFORE (broken): reads the prop names ...
$argsObj->$prop = isset($_REQUEST[$prop]) ? $_REQUEST[$prop] : null;
//                     ^^^^ tplan_id / build_id / platform_id — NOT in the URL

Deep links carry the cache-key names (setting_testplan/setting_build/ setting_platform), so tplan_id stayed null → intval() → 0 → the project derivation at :699-702 (if (tproject_id<=0 && tplan_id>0)) never ran → :705-706 threw Bad Test Project ID.

Git-history proof of regression: commit ff21e9920 ("new class build.class.php, not on testplan.class.php") had the original upstream fallback reading $_REQUEST[$sfKey] (setting_*). Commit 857555dad ("Fix test execution and reporting flow") flipped it to $_REQUEST[$prop], breaking every form-tokenless deep link since. git log -L 2304,2317:lib/execute/execSetResults.php shows the exact diff.

Fix

Read the cache-key name first, keep the prop name as the secondary fallback for legacy callers that pass tplan_id directly:

     if (is_null($argsObj->$prop)) {
       // let's this page be functional withouth a form token too 
       // (when called from testcases assigned to me)
-      $argsObj->$prop = isset($_REQUEST[$prop]) ? 
-                        $_REQUEST[$prop] : null;
+      $argsObj->$prop = isset($_REQUEST[$cacheKey]) ? 
+                        $_REQUEST[$cacheKey] :
+                        (isset($_REQUEST[$prop]) ? $_REQUEST[$prop] : null);
     }

Why this is correct and safe:

  • Settings group (the bug): deep links and the filter panel submit the cache-key names (inc_filter_panel.tpl:93,106,118 name="setting_testplan|build|platform"), so setting_* is now picked up — the 500 is gone.
  • Legacy "testcases assigned to me" callers (mainPage.html:516, tcAssignments.html:354) pass tplan_id directly plus setting_build/ setting_platform — the $prop fallback keeps them working.
  • Filter group: the filter map is also prop≠cacheKey (filter_status→ filter_result_result, filter_assigned_to→filter_assigned_user, execution_type→filter_execution_type, priority→filter_priority, filter_cfields→filter_custom_fields) and the panel submits the cache-key names (inc_filter_panel.tpl:448,451,382,390,368,355), so cache-key-first repairs the form-tokenless filter path too; nothing regressed because the $prop fallback remains.
  • The session-cache path (:2305) is untouched — normal navigator flows are unaffected.

Alternatives considered and rejected: (a) settings-only special case — needless complexity; the single cache-key-first rule covers settings and filters uniformly. (b) Reverting to upstream exactly ($_REQUEST[$cacheKey] only) — would break the tplan_id legacy callers that the 857555dad change was preserving. The dual-key fallback is the minimal fix that satisfies both.

Regression matrix (all executed, live)

Fixtures as above (project 37 / testplan 38 / tcversion 41 / tcase node 40 / platform 9 / build 3 / feature 3).

# Case Result
1 Deep-link workframe URL (setting_* only, no form_token) 200 (was 500); browser renders "Test Results on Build Build 8 - Platform : Win10 / Test Plan Plan DL / Test Case DL-1 :: Deep Link Case" with step row + Passed/Failed/Blocked.

execSetResults workframe after fix | | 2 | Legacy caller passing tplan_id directly (…&tplan_id=38&setting_build=3&setting_platform=9) | 200 — prop fallback preserved | | 3 | ltx.php?load&item=exec&build_id=3&feature_id=3 (real deep-link shell) | 200; shell wires treeframe execNavigator.php?...setting_* + workframe execSetResults.php?...setting_* | | 4 | Deep link + filter cache-key params (filter_priority, filter_execution_type) | 200, no error | | 5 | Event Viewer / events table after all page loads | no new Error/Warning (log_level ≥ 32); the only INFO rows (log_level 16) are the fixture script's own ASSIGN/CREATE/DELETE | | 6 | Syntax gate | php -l lib/execute/execSetResults.php clean |

How the fix was chosen

Reproduced the HTTP 500 first (curl + fresh DB fixtures + tmp/php_server.log evidence: [500] ... Uncaught Exception: Bad Test Project ID in ...execSetResults.php:706), then pinned the regression statically with git log -L on the fallback lines (upstream ff21e9920 $_REQUEST[$sfKey] → 857555dad $_REQUEST[$prop]). Audited every caller of the form-tokenless path (modern assigned-tc links, ltx.php workframe, filter panel) to confirm which REQUEST keys each submits, then applied the one-line dual-key fallback. No refactoring, no shared-infrastructure changes.
