I receive a '"Failed to parse Connect' error when trying to run a selenium script and post results

[Scott Feger]

Full error: Failed to send test result to Zephyr. Response: {"error": "Failed to parse Connect Session Auth Token"}

I'm a newbie and trying to learn how to execute a rspect script and change the results to a zephyr test case.  I found the example below  but when I execute it, I get the following result

---

Failed to send test result to Zephyr. Response: {"error": "Failed to parse Connect Session Auth Token"} . Finished in 4.86 seconds (files took 0.05997 seconds to load) 1 example, 0 failures

---

Here's the code (I'm not including the actual test file being executed) and I faked the token information

require 'net/http'

require 'uri'

require 'json'

require 'selenium-webdriver'

require 'rspec'

# Define the Zephyr API token and test execution details

JIRA_API_TOKEN = 'blah-blah-blah-blah'

JIRA_URL = 'https://blah.atlassian.net/'

TEST_EXECUTION_KEY = 'ACQ-Blah' # Replace with your actual test execution key

# This method sends the test results to Zephyr (Jira)

def report_to_zephyr(test_case_id, status, execution_time)

# Define Zephyr API endpoint URL

uri = URI.parse("#{JIRA_URL}/rest/api/2.0/testexec/#{TEST_EXECUTION_KEY}/result")

# Create HTTP headers for the request (including authentication)

headers = {

'Authorization' => "Bearer #{JIRA_API_TOKEN}",

'Content-Type' => 'application/json'

}

# Define the payload for the test result (use "PASS" or "FAIL")

result = {

'testCaseId' => test_case_id, # The Test Case ID from Jira

'status' => status, # 'PASS' or 'FAIL'

'executionTime' => execution_time, # Time the test took

'comments' => 'Automated test result via Selenium and Ruby' # Optional comment

}

# Convert the result to JSON

request_body = result.to_json

# Set up the HTTP POST request

request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.path, headers)

request.body = request_body

# Make the HTTP request

http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)

http.use_ssl = true # Ensure SSL is used for the connection (important for Jira Cloud)

response = http.request(request)

# Print the response from the API (for debugging)

if response.is_a?(Net::HTTPSuccess)

puts "Test result successfully sent to Zephyr!"

else

puts "Failed to send test result to Zephyr. Response: #{response.body}"

end

end

RSpec::Core::Runner.run(['JUNK2.rb']) # Replace 'test_script.rb' with your actual test file name

Thanks for any guidance on where I should start looking.

Hi @Scott Feger 

The error states that the token being used to authenticate with the Jira/Zephyr API is either invalid or improperly formatted. Jira Cloud API tokens must be generated for the user account under Account Settings > API Tokens. Have you completed this process?

[Scott Feger]

Thanks Tuncay.  I did create an API token.  Should I be using the full key (large) or just the short  

I might need to double check my uri.  I may have done that incorrectly.  Hopefully I'll have some time to look at it later today.  Since this is a side project, I don't have much allocated time.
