Add test results to change requests using test API
Add test results to DevOps change requests using the test capability of the DevOps - POST /devops/tool/{capability} API. The API is available for all test types for various tools connected to DevOps Change Velocity.
For more information about the API, see DevOps - POST /devops/tool/{capability}. To use the API in Azure DevOps, GitHub, and Jenkins, you must use the format mentioned in the respective sections below.
Prerequisites
Role required: sn_devops.admin
You must make sure that the test type you want to use in the API is available as a test type in DevOps Change Velocity and that it is mapped with the respective orchestration tool.
- Navigate to .
You can also use the classic UI navigation .
- Verify if the test type is available in the Test types table.
- For custom test types, select New and add the test type to the list.
- In the Test type field, enter a name for your test type.
- From the Test category list, select the category of your test type.
- Select Save.
- Navigate to .
You can also use the classic UI navigation .
- Verify if the test type is mapped to your orchestration tool.
- If the mapping is not available, then select New and create the mapping.
- From the Test type list, select the test type that you want to map.
- From the Tool integration list, select your orchestration tool.
- Select Save.
Azure DevOps
For Azure DevOps pipelines, use the format given here to add test results to change requests for various test types.
Format for URL suffix and parameters:
/api/sn_devops/v1/devops/tool/test?toolId=<devops_ToolID>&testType=<test_type>- The parameter toolId must be a valid Tool Id from a connected and configured tool in DevOps Change Velocity.
- The parameter testType should have a test type mapping in DevOps Change Velocity.
Within the Body, you must pass the parameters based on the test type.
注:
For the generic connection, use the following:
- username: devops.integration.user
- password: <devops.integration.user password>

}Limitations of the test API
- Waiting logic will not be taken care of.
- Re-run scenarios cannot be handled.
