How to install the app?


Install via go install

The easiest way to install Qase CLI is using go install:

go install github.com/qase-tms/qasectl@latest

Make sure to add $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH environment variable to be able to run the qasectl command.

The binary is named qasectl, if you'd like, you can create an alias as qli to keep it short :)


Build from source

Clone the repository

git clone <https://github.com/qase-tms/qasectl.git> && cd qasectl

Build the binary

make build

You will find the binary in the build/ directory.

Try creating a test run by executing the binary -

./build/qasectl testops run create --project QD --token <your-token> --title "Run created from Qase-cli" --description "Hello, from qase-cli" --environment <env-slug> --verbose

Use a Docker image

Pull the Docker image

docker pull ghcr.io/qase-tms/qase-cli:latest

Run the Docker container

docker run --rm ghcr.io/qase-tms/qase-cli:latest <add-your-command-here>

Using Qase CLI

You can generate an API token from here 🔗 and refer to this guide 🔗 to find your project code, and run_id in Qase.

Create a test run

You can create a test run by using the create command. The create command is used to create a new test run in the specified project and save a test run ID to a file.

You can specify the file path using the --output option.

If the file path is not specified, the test run ID will be saved to qase.env in the current directory.

The file will contain the test run ID in the following format:

QASE_TESTOPS_RUN_ID=123

You can use the test run ID in subsequent steps to upload test results for the test run.

For extracting the test run ID from file, use the following command:

cat qase.env | grep QASE_TESTOPS_RUN_ID | cut -d'=' -f2

Example usage -

qasectl testops run create
  • -p <project_code>
  • -t <token>
  • --title <title>
  • -d <description>
  • -e <environment>
  • -m <milestone>
  • -o <plan>
  • -v

Supported options

Required:

  • --project, -p: The project code where the test run will be created.
  • --token, -t: The API token to authenticate with the Qase API.
  • --title: The name of the test run.

Optional:

  • --description, -d: The description of the test run.
  • --environment, -e: The environment where the test run will be executed.
  • --milestone, -m: The milestone of the test run.
  • --plan: The test plan of the test run.
  • --output, -o: Output path to save the run ID (default is qase.env in working directory).
  • --verbose, -v: Enable verbose mode.

The following example shows how to create a test run in the project with the code DEMO:

qasectl testops run create  
--project DEMO  
--token <token>  
--title "Example test run created using Qase CLI"  
--verbose

Complete a test run

You can complete a test run by using the complete command. The complete command is used to complete a test run in the specified project.

Example usage -

qasectl testops run complete  
--project <project_code>  
--token <token>  
--id <run_id>  
--verbose

Here, the --id flag takes the ID of the Qase test run that is to be marked complete.

The following example shows how to complete a test run with the ID 1 in the project with the code DEMO:

qasectl testops run complete --project DEMO --token <token> --id 1 --verbose

Upload test results

You can upload test results by using the upload command. The upload command is used to upload test results for a test run in the specified project.

Example usage -

qasectl testops result upload  
--project <project_code>  
--token <token>  
--id <run_id>  
--format <format>  
--path <results_file>  
--batch <batch>  
--verbose

Supported options

Required:

  • --project, -p: The project code where the test results will be uploaded.
  • --token, -t: The API token to authenticate with the Qase API.
  • --id: The ID of the test run to upload results for. Required if title is not set.
  • --title: The title of the test results. Required if id is not set.
  • --path: The path to the test results file or folder.
  • --format: The format of the test results file. Allowed values: junit, qase, allure, xctest.

Optional:

  • --description, -d: The description of the test results.
  • --steps: The mode of upload steps for XCTest. Allowed values: all, user.
  • --batch: The batch number of the test results. Default value is 200.
  • --suite, -s: Define the root suite for all the test results.
  • --verbose, -v: Enable verbose mode.

The following example shows how to upload test results in the JUnit format for a test run with the ID 1 in the project with the code DEMO:

qasectl testops result upload  
--project DEMO  
--token <token>  
--id 1  
--format junit  
--path /path/to/results.xml  
--verbose

Similarly, use the following paths for other result types:

  • Qase format:
    --path /path/to/build/qase-results/results.json

  • Allure format:
    --path /path/to/allure-results

  • XCTest format:
    --path /path/to/xctest-results


Create Environments and Milestones

Similar to creating test runs, you can use the create command to create a new environment or milestone in the specified project and save a value to a file.

The path for saving the qase.env file can be specified using the --output option.

If the file path is not specified, qase.env will be saved to the working directory.

The qase.env file will contain:

  • QASE_ENVIRONMENT=<slug>
  • or
  • QASE_MILESTONE=<id>

You can use the environment slug or milestone ID in subsequent steps when creating a new test run.

For extracting the values from the file, use the following commands:

cat qase.env | grep QASE_ENVIRONMENT | cut -d'=' -f2
cat qase.env | grep QASE_MILESTONE | cut -d'=' -f2

Create an Environment

Example usage -

qasectl testops env create  
--project <project_code>  
--token <token>
