Scripted validator - Compare value of 2 custom number fields

Andrew Swain October 23, 2018

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to prevent simple, incorrect fix fails where the regressed cl is lower than the fixed cl.

To do this, I'm trying to create a simple scripted validator to compare and check that the regressed CL is equal to or greater than the fixed CL, which are both number fields. However it seems >= is not supported and I'm otherwise unsure how to implement this. Help?

 

I've tried this as a simple scripted validator:

cfValues['Regressed CL'] >= cfvalues['Fixed CL']

 

Thank you.

Hi @Andrew Swain

I think (i don't really remember) that when you get a customfield value, it returns it as "string"

that is a possible reason why >= not working for you.

Try this:

(cfValues['Regressed CL'] as int) >= (cfvalues['Fixed CL'] as int)

Success! Thank you. Strange that it wouldn't assume number when it's a number field.

I Have tried the below script in validator.

(cfValues['numberfield2'] as int) >= (cfvalues['number field1'] as int) 

 error : says cfvalues not declared, could you give me  full script.

The solution: correct "cfvalues" to "cfValues"

The V in values should be upper case.
