AutomationSchedules_LoadByCriteria Operation

Applies to QAComplete 14.5, last modified on August 06, 2024
This functionality is provided by the automated testing bridge that allows obtaining TestComplete test results to the QAComplete Automation screen.
Starting from the release 9.9.0, this functionality is obsolete and is supported only for backward compatibility.

Use the AutomationSchedules_LoadByCriteria operation to:

  • Get automation schedules that match a specific condition. For example, have a specific automation type or based on a specific automation test item.

  • Get all automation schedules in QAComplete projects (if no condition is specified).

The operation can get schedules from one or several projects. To specify a project to get schedules from, use the ProjId value in the AuthenticationData object in the request body. To get schedules from several projects, use the ProjIds value in the AuthenticationData object to specify the list of project IDs.

LoadByCriteria returns results in pages (subsets of data) rather than all at once. Pagination is controlled by the PageSize and PageNumber parameters. For information about working with paginated results, see LoadByCriteria Operations.

You can use the Sorting parameter to sort the automation schedules before returning them from QAComplete.

To get just one item, use AutomationSchedules_Load. Also, you can use the AutomationSchedules_LoadTestsByTimeSpan operation to get all automation schedules within the specific time span.

Requirements

The authenticating user must belong to a user group that has the Read privilege for AutomationSchedules.

Parameters

The operation uses the following parameters:

AuthenticationData  :  AuthenticationData, required

An AuthenticationData object with the login information and the ID of the project (or the list of project IDs) that contains the automation schedules.

Condition  :  string (max 65536 chars)

An XML-formatted string that describes the automation schedule you want to get. For the syntax and examples, see Condition Syntax.

If you create SOAP requests manually, place the condition string inside CDATA.

To get all automation schedules, use an empty string or a null value.

Sorting  :  string (max 512 chars)

The order to sort the results before returning them from the web service. For example, by test run ID or number of failed tests. The format is:

Property1 [ASC | DESC ][, Property2 [ASC | DESC ]] [, ...]]]

where property names are those of the AutomationSchedule object. If you omit ASC or DESC after a property name, test runs are sorted in ascending order.

Example values:

AutomationScheduleId
AutomationTestItemId, AutomationScheduleId
DateCreated DESC

To keep the default sort order, use an empty string or a null value.

PageSize  :  integer, required

Limits the number of automation schedules to return in one page. Possible values: 1..200.

The last page may have less items than PageSize. This means the end of the result set.

PageNumber  :  integer, required

A number starting from 1 that specifies the data page to return in the response. To get all pages, send several requests with increasing PageNumber values. For example, if PageSize is 100, PageNumber of 1 will return items 1..100, PageNumber of 2 - items 101..200 and so on.

If PageNumber exceeds the range, an empty array is returned. If PageNumber is the last page, this page may have less items than PageSize.

Result

An array of AutomationSchedule objects that contain information about automation schedules.

Example

Sample Code

This example loads all runs of the specified automation type.

C#

string login = "[email protected]";
string password = "p@ssword";
int projID = 10372;

// Specifying the condition
string condition =
@"<Conditions xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'

    <Value xsi:type='xsd:string'>AutomationType</Value>
  </Items>
  <Items Type='tString'>
    <Value xsi:type='xsd:string'>TestComplete</Value>
  </Items>
</Conditions>";
string Sorting = "";
int pageSize = 200;

ServiceSoapClient service = new ServiceSoapClient();

// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.GetLoginInfo("", login, password);

authData.AppCode = loginInfo.AppCode;

AutomationSchedule[] automationSchedules = new AutomationSchedule[0];
int pageNumber = 1;
do
{
  automationSchedules = service.AutomationSchedules_LoadByCriteria(authData, condition, Sorting, pageSize, pageNumber);
  foreach (AutomationSchedule automationSchedule in automationSchedules)
  {
    Console.WriteLine("{0} test is scheduled from {1} to {2}", automationSchedule.AutomationType, automationSchedule.DateBegin, automationSchedule.DateEnd);
    }
} while (automationSchedules.Length == pageSize);

Java

String login = "[email protected]";
String password = "p@ssword";
int projID = 10372;

// Specifying the desired condition
String condition =

"  </Items>\n" +
"  <Items Type='tString'>\n" +
"    <Value xsi:type='xsd:string'>TestComplete</Value>\n" +
"  </Items>\n" +
"</Conditions>\n";

int pageSize = 200;
String sorting = "";

ServiceSoap service = new Service().getServiceSoap12();

// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.getLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.setAppCode(loginInfo.getAppCode());
authData.setUserId(loginInfo.getUserId());
authData.setPassCode(password);
authData.setDeptId(loginInfo.getDeptId());
authData.setProjId(projID);

// Preparing an array of AutomationSchedule objects
List<AutomationSchedule> automationSchedules;
int pageNumber = 1;

do
{
  automationSchedules = service.automationSchedulesLoadByCriteria(authData, condition, sorting, pageSize, pageNumber).getAutomationSchedule();
  for (AutomationSchedule automationSchedule : automationSchedules)
  {
    System.out.format("%s test is scheduled from %s to %s%n", automationSchedule.getAutomationType(), automationSchedule.getDateBegin(), automationSchedule.getDateEnd());
  }
  pageNumber++;
} while (automationSchedules.size() == pageSize);
