How to clone test cycle after test cycle was finished?

Question

Hi all,

we're using Test Management 4 Jira at our company, and I'm trying to create a ScriptRunner listener that clones the actual test cycle (with all test cases in it) with a new name once the test cycle was finished. Apparently I should be able to do it with the TM4J API however I'm new to ScriptRunner and I'm not quite sure how to a) make an API call from within a listener & in groovy, b) what service(s) to use to clone a test cycle.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi,

Apologies, we do have documentation for TM4J's Java API, this can be found here: 
https://docs.adaptavist.io/tm4j/server/java-api/6.8.0/

We will be looking to add a link to this to our documentation ASAP.

Does this help? Is there anything else I can help you with?

Kind regards,

Bobby

Hi Katy,

thank you for the links, however, I've read all of these documentations and my main problem is that I have no idea what services, objects, methods, etc. to use when writing scripts for TM4J. I've seen in the samples that there's stuff like TestCycleService and others, but how am I supposed to know this exists? Is there a full list of all services/etc. available for this plugin or am I supposed to just figure it out on my own?

Thanks!

Hi,

We recommend looking at our documentation links on how to do this:

https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/plugins/working-with-tm4j.html

https://www.adaptavist.com/doco/display/KT/ScriptRunner+for+Jira

You must have, at minimum, TM4J Server version 6.8 and ScriptRunner version 5.6.8.1 installed to use the TM4J events/integration.
