Hide the Expand/Collapse button Search Test Plans page for TP with 0 children in the result set

Settings¶

Warning

The location of the Python runtime inside the container has changed. This affects settings override files as well as any downstream customizations to the Kiwi TCMS container image! For example you may have to adjust Docker volumes like so:

         volumes:
-            - ./local_settings.py:/venv/lib64/python3.9/site-packages/tcms/settings/local_settings.py
+            - ./local_settings.py:/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/tcms/settings/local_settings.py

Explicitly define the DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE setting. It controls file uploads via RPC, not webUI, because the payload is base64 encoded and is part of the request body. Closes Issue #3262

API¶

Warning

This version of Kiwi TCMS introduces backward incompatible changes to API methods

Method TestRun.filter() no longer returns the field plan__product
Method TestRun.filter() no longer returns the field plan__product_version
Method TestRun.filter() no longer returns the field plan__product_version__value
Method TestRun.filter() now returns the new field build__version
Method TestRun.filter() now returns the new field build__version__product
Method TestRun.filter() now returns the new field build__version__value

Bug fixes¶

Fix TestPlan cloning with different product (@somenewacc)
Fix row reload when adding new comment in TestRun page (@somenewacc)
Fix tag display for parametrized executions on TestRun page (@somenewacc)
Fix bug in search/display of Version on Search TestRun page. The root cause was that the correct relationship here should have been TR -> Build -> Version which is independent of the relationship TP -> Product -> Version. Fixes Issue #3258
Fix bug in search/display of Product on Search TestRun page. The root cause was that the correct relationship here should have been TR -> Build -> Version -> Product which is independent of the relationship TP -> Product
Fix Telemetry pages to query Product/Version from execution’s data. All of these underlying queries on these pages operate on TestExecution and Product/Version information should be matched against what is stored in TestExecution->Build because it is more accurate over time, while TE->TR->TP->Product/Version is more likely to change as test plan documents evolve
Adjust Product & Version display on TestRun page using the relationship TR->Build as the starting point
For IssueTracker integration use Product/Version from execution.build Note that execution.build is initialized with run.build and then may change its value if we’re recording results against multiple builds inside the same TestRun. For example mark some executions as PASS, others as FAIL; then update TR to a newer Build; retest and mark the FAIL results as PASS. Using the value of execution.build is more accurate
Treat the file /Kiwi/etc/uwsgi.override as an ini file and load it if it exists. This means that any override files must include the [uwsgi] section as well

Refactoring and testing¶

Adjust Kiwi TCMS for newer version of django-modern-rpc (Antoine Lorence)
Remove commented out code (@deepsource-autofix[bot])
Add integration test for uploading files with maximum allowed size
Update isort from 5.12.0 to 5.13.2

Instead they are present as command line options passed to the container, see docker-compose.yml. Previous workaround for these variables was also removed.

If you want to migrate from the previous centos/mariadb-103-centos7 or centos/postgresql-12-centos7 containers to mariadb:latest and postgres:latest make sure to update your container control files!

Bug fixes¶

Unify tab size & tab indentation b/w Python & SimpleMDE. Fixes Issue #1802
Use sane_list extension for rendering consecutive lists in markdown. Closes Issue #2511

Warning

The visual markdown editor explicitly didn’t follow markdown syntax rules by allowing indentation with 2 spaces and treating tabs as 2 spaces as well. See “Indentation/Tab Length” at https://python-markdown.github.io/#differences

The backend markdown rendering engine explicitly followed an undefined behavior which happens to be different from what the visual markdown editor does. See “Consecutive Lists” at https://python-markdown.github.io/#differences

The previous 2 changes make sure the visual editor and backend rendering engine follow the same rules. This may result is “broken” display of existing text which doesn’t follow the markdown syntax rules. If you spot such text just edit to make it render the way you wish.

Kiwi TCMS 8.6 (23 Aug 2020)¶

IMPORTANT: this is a high severity security update which includes improvements, database migrations, API changes, translation updates and new tests. It is the fourth release to include contributions via our open source bounty program.

Supported upgrade paths:

3   (or older) -> 5.3.1
3.1 (or newer) -> 6.0.1
0.1            -> 6.1
1              -> 6.1.1
1.1            -> 6.2 (or newer)

After upgrade don’t forget to:

./manage.py migrate

Security¶

A high severity vulnerability which allows unprivileged data access via JSON-RPC endpoints has been fixed:
- Affects all previous versions of Kiwi TCMS
- Instances on public networks, such as Amazon EC2, are at higher risk
- Instances on private networks are still vulnerable to anyone who can access the same network
- This vulnerability has been disclosed by Michael Longmire (ShastaQA) and Stone Pack (ShastaQA)
Update marked from 0.8.2 to 1.1.1 for a medium severity vulnerability, see SNYK-JS-MARKED-584281

Improvements¶

Update django from 3.0.8 to 3.0.9
Update django-attachments from 1.5 to 1.6
Update prismjs from 1.20.0 to 1.21.0
Update pygithub from 1.51 to 1.53
Replace deprecated bleach-whitelist with bleach-allowlist
Make django-extensions a production dependency because it provides many useful manage.py commands
Enable syntax highlight for code blocks
Remove file attachments when related objects are deleted
Add image and file upload buttons to text editor. Fixes Issue #977
Require auth.view_user permission when trying to view user profiles. Fixes Issue #1685
Multiple pages now explicitly require view permissions before displaying read-only information. This gives administrators a finer grained control:
- /bugs/<id>/ -> bugs.view_bug
- /bugs/search/ -> bugs.view_bug
- /cases/search/ -> testcases.view_testcase
- /case/<id>/ -> testcases.view_testcase
- /plans/search/ -> testplans.view_testplan
- /plan/<id>/* -> testplans.view_testplan
- /runs/search/ -> testruns.view_testrun
- /runs/<id>/ -> testruns.view_testrun
Previously these pages only required the user to be logged in

Warning

The auth.view_user permission is not granted by default because the profile page contains personal information like names and email address, see Managing permissions.

Database¶

Migrations which manipulate data (contain RunPython) can now be rollbacked. See ./manage.py migrate --plan for the order in which migrations are applied (Bryan Mutai)
Increase Product.name size from 64 to 255 characters

API¶

Remove method TestExecution.create() in favor of TestRun.add_case()
Add method User.add_attachment()
Multiple API methods now explicitly require view permissions before returning read-only information. This is in-sync with the per-page changes listed above:
- Bug.filter() -> bugs.view_bug
- Bug.report() -> testruns.view_testexecution
- Build.filter() -> management.view_build
- Category.filter() -> testcases.view_category
- Classification.filter() -> management.view_classification
- Component.filter() -> management.view_component
- PlanType.filter() -> testplans.view_plantype
- Priority.filter() -> management.view_priority
- Product.filter() -> management.view_product
- Tag.filter() -> management.view_tag
- TestCase.get_components() -> testcases.view_testcase
- TestCase.get_notification_cc() -> testcases.view_testcase
- TestCase.filter() -> testcases.view_testcase
- TestCaseStatus.filter() -> testcases.view_testcasestatus
- TestExecution.filter() -> testruns.view_testexecution
- TestExecution.get_links() -> linkreference.view_linkreference
- TestExecutionStatus.filter() -> testruns.view_testexecutionstatus
- TestPlan.filter() -> testplans.view_testplan
- TestRun.get_cases() -> testruns.view_testrun
- TestRun.filter() -> testruns.view_testrun
- User.filter() -> auth.view_user
- Version.filter() -> management.view_version

Documentation updates

Important

Starting from v8.4 all supported bug trackers now feature 1-click bug report integration!

Note

Some external bug trackers like Bugzilla & JIRA provide more flexibility over which fields are required for a new bug report. The current functionality should work for vanilla installations and would fall back to manual bug reporting if it can’t create a new bug automatically!

Database¶

Force creation of missing permissions for m2m fields from the tcms.bugs app:
- bugs.add_bug_tags
- bugs.change_bug_tags
- bugs.delete_bug_tags
- bugs.view_bug_tags
- bugs.add_bug_executions
- bugs.change_bug_execution
- bugs.delete_bug_execution
- bugs.view_bug_executions

Warning

TCMS admins of existing installations will have to assign these by hand to users/groups who will be allowed to change tags on bugs!

Settings¶

Define the KIWI_DISABLE_BUGTRACKER=yes environment variable if you wish to disable the internal bug tracker. Closes Issue #1370

Bug fixes¶

Workaround missing MariaDB CHARSET/COLLATION support, see our docker-compose.yml. Fixes Issue #1700

Kiwi TCMS 8.1 (04 Mar 2020)¶

IMPORTANT: this is a small security and improvement release which also includes several bug fixes, internal refactoring and updated translations.

Supported upgrade paths:

3   (or older) -> 5.3.1
3.1 (or newer) -> 6.0.1
0.1            -> 6.1

Security¶

JSON-RPC handler will now HTML escape all strings. This prevents XSS attacks via tags, components or anything else which is loaded on the web page via RPC and then shown as string. Even if someone saves <script>alert(123);</script> in the database the returned result will be HTML escaped and will not be executed as JavaScript!

Note

This is easy to exploit but people able to do so should have accounts in your Kiwi TCMS installation and write privileges on their accounts. If they do this means they can cause a lot more damage much more easily!
Update Django from 3.0.3 to 3.0.4 - fixes security issue CVE-2020-9402: Potential SQL injection via tolerance parameter in GIS functions and aggregates on Oracle which we believe does not affect Kiwi TCMS

For more information see https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installing_docker.html#customization
Allow adding TestPlan to TestCase via UI. Fixes Issue #1021
Add visual representation of failures in TestCase health telemetry
Add helper text to TestExecutionStatus admin
Add link to discussion forum in Help menu

API¶

TestCase.create() method no longer accepts product or product_id fields which have previously been deprecated
API methods which receive True/False values will no longer parse yes,no,1,0 values. The only accepted values are boolean constants defined in the calling programming language which are then transmitted via XML-RPC or JSON-RPC and converted to native boolean on the backend

Bug fixes¶

The number of search results shown per page can now be controlled via DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE setting, which is 100 by default. Fixes Issue #1210 (Ivailo Karabojkov)
Use comma separated display of components in bug reports. Fixes Issue #1157 (Ivailo Karabojkov)
Update selector for ‘Select All’ test executions in TestRun page. Fixes Issue #1404

Internal JavaScript updates

Translations¶

Kiwi TCMS 8.0 (12 Feb 2020)¶

IMPORTANT: this is a major release which includes important database and API changes, several improvements and bug fixes. Multiple API methods are now incompatible with older releases and extra caution needs to be applied when upgrading via docker-compose.yml because newer MariaDB versions are breaking direct upgrades from existing installations!

Supported upgrade paths:

3   (or older) -> 5.3.1
3.1 (or newer) -> 6.0.1
0.1            -> 6.1
1              -> 6.1.1
1.1            -> 6.2 (or newer)

After upgrade don’t forget to:

./manage.py migrate

Improvements¶

Update Django from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3
Update django-grappelli from 2.13.3 to 2.14.1
Update markdown from 3.1.1 to 3.2
Update python-gitlab from 1.15.0 to 2.0.1
Update pygithub from 1.45 to 1.46
Allow customization of test execution statuses via admin. For more information see https://kiwitcms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin.html#test-execution-statuses. Fixes Issue #236
Add passing rate chart to Execution trends telemetry
Documentation updates (@Prome88)

Database¶

This release adds several migrations which alter the underlying database schema by renaming multiple columns.

Warning

SQLite has very poor capabilities for altering schema and it will break when run with existing database! If you had deployed Kiwi TCMS with SQLite for production purposes you will not be able to upgrade! We recommend switching to Postgres first and then upgrading!
docker-compose.yml has been updated from MariaDB 5.5 to MariaDB 10.3. The 10.x MariaDB containers change their datadir configuration from /var/lib/mysql to /var/lib/mysql/data! We recommend first upgrading your MariaDB version, using Kiwi TCMS 7.3 and afterwards upgrading to Kiwi TCMS 8.0:
1. Backup existing database with:
```
docker exec -it kiwi_db mysqldump -u kiwi -pYourPass kiwi > backup.sql
```
2. docker-compose down
3. docker volume rm kiwi_db_data - will remove existing data volume b/c of incompatibilities between different MariaDB versions
4. docker-compose up - will recreate data volume with missing data. e.g. manage.py showmigrations will report that 0 migrations have been applied.
5. Restore the data from backup:
```
cat backup.sql | docker exec -u 0 -i kiwi_db /opt/rh/rh-mariadb103/root/usr/bin/mysql kiwi
```
  Note
  
  This connects to the database as the root user
6. Proceed to upgrade your Kiwi TCMS container !

Remove model fields of type AutoField. They are a legacy construct and shouldn’t be specified in the source code! Django knows how to add them dynamically. These are:
- Tag.id
- TestCaseStatus.id
- Category.id
- PlanType.id
- TestExecutionStatus.id
Remove db_column attribute from model fields
Rename several primary key fields to id:
- Build.build_id -> Build.id
- TestRun.run_id -> TestRun.id
- TestPlan.plan_id -> TestPlan.id
- TestCase.case_id -> TestCase.id
- TestExecution.case_run_id -> TestExecution.id

API¶

Warning

The database schema changes mentioned above affect multiple API methods in a backwards incompatible way! There is possibility that your API scripts will also be affected. You will have to adjust those to use the new field names where necessary!

Methods Build.create(), Build.filter() and Build.update() will return id instead of build_id field
Method TestRun.get_cases() will return execution_id instead of case_run_id field and id instead of case_id field
Methods TestRun.add_case(), TestExecution.create(), TestExecution.filter() and TestExecution.update() will return id instead of case_run_id field
Methods TestRun.create(), TestRun.filter(), TestRun.update() will return id instead of run_id field
Methods TestPlan.create(), TestPlan.filter() and TestPlan.update() will return id instead of plan_id field
Methods TestCase.add_component(), TestCase.create(), TestCase.filter() and TestCase.update() will return id instead of case_id field

Note

Kiwi TCMS automation framework plugins have been updated to work with the newest API. At the time of Kiwi TCMS v8.0 release their versions are:

kiwitcms-tap-plugin v8.0.1
kiwitcms-junit.xml-plugin v8.0.1
kiwitcms-junit-plugin v8.0

Bug fixes¶

Allow displaying lists with more then 9 items when reviewing test cases. Fixes Issue #339 (Mfon Eti-mfon)
Make tcms.tests.storage.RaiseWhenFileNotFound` capable of finding finding static files on Windows which enables development mode for folks not using Linux environment. See SO #55297178 (Mfon Eti-mfon)

Properly refresh test run progress bar when changing statuses. Fixes Issue #1326

Rename RPC related classes. Fixes Issue #682 (Rosen Sasov)
Add new test (Mariyan Garvanski)
Start using GitHub actions, first for running flake8

Kiwi TCMS 7.0 (24 Sep 2019)¶

IMPORTANT: this is a major release which includes security updates, significant database schema and API changes, many improvements, removed functionality, bug fixes, substantial internal refactoring and several new languages.

Supported upgrade paths:

3   (or older) -> 5.3.1
3.1 (or newer) -> 6.0.1
0.1            -> 6.1
1              -> 6.1.1
1.1            -> 6.2 (or newer)

After upgrade don’t forget to:

./manage.py migrate

Security¶

API method BugSystem.filter() has been removed (now unused) but it was possible to use this method to steal passwords or keys used for Issue Tracker integration. This vulnerability could be exploited by users logged into Kiwi TCMS and is classified as medium severity! We advise you to change your integration API keys and passwords immediately!

Improvements¶

Update Django from 2.2.4 to 2.2.5
Update django-uuslug from 1.1.8 to 1.1.9
Update mysqlclient from 1.4.2.post1 to 1.4.4
Update python-bugzilla from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0
Update python-gitlab from 1.10.0 to 1.11.0
Update patternfly from 3.59.3 to 3.59.4
Reduce docker image size from 1.01 GB to 577 MB
Add TestCase Health telemetry
Add support for Redmine issue tracker. Fixes Issue #41 (Jesse C. Lin)
Add breathing room around HTML form’s submit buttons (Rady Madjev)
New TestRun page action: bulk-add hyperlinks to TestExecution(s)
Make it possible to disable HTTPS by specifying the KIWI_DONT_ENFORCE_HTTPS environment variable! Fixes Issue #1036 (Marco Descher)
Documentation updates, including internal style checker. Fixes Issue #1000 (Prome88)
When linking a TestExecution to a defect and choosing to update the Issue Tracker Kiwi TCMS will not add a comment pointing back to TR ID/summary/URL and TE ID/summary. This provides more detailed information about the reproducer instead of just linking to a TestCase without any specific execution details like we did in the past
Display additional defect information via Issue Tracker integration. On Patternfly pages which show defect URLs this is accessible via a small info icon. Fixes Issue #117
Add minimalistic defect tracker functionality. Fixes Issue #699
- integrated with Issue Tracker integration layer as if it was an external system
- when adding hyperlink to TestExecition (also via API method TestExecution.add_link()) this is special cased and the references between Bug and TestExecution are always updated
- when clicking ‘Report bug’ from inside Test Execution the new defect is reported automatically and a new browser window opens to display the information

Database migrations¶

Tell the migration planner to apply testruns.0006_rename_test_case_run_to_test_execution after linkreference.0001_squashed. This enables subsequent migrations and new functionality to be applied without crashing.

Warning

Django should be able to handle this automatically both for existing installations and for new ones. In any case make sure you backup your data first and make a dry-run to verify that nothing breaks!
Remove fields url_reg_exp, validate_reg_exp and description from BugSystem model
Update the following fields in LinkReference model:
- rename test_case_run to execution
- add indexing for created_on and url
- add is_defect field
Apply LinkReference permissions to default group Tester. Fixes Issue #881

Warning

Administrators of existing applications will need to apply these permissions by hand via the Admin section.
Remove testcases.Bug model, replaced with LinkReference. Closes Issue #1029 and obsoletes Issue #320.

Note

Linking bugs to TestExecution is now performed via URLs instead of keeping a reference to BUG-ID and trying to reconstruct the URL on the fly.

Warning

The model named Bug which is added by subsequent migrations refers to defects reported into Kiwi TCMS minimalistic defect tracker!
New model bugs.Bug is now available. Permissions of type bugs | bug | Can ... will be applied to the default group named Tester only for new installations.

Warning

Administrators of existing applications will need to apply these permissions by hand via the Admin section.

API¶

TestExecution.add_link() method now returns serialized LinkReference object.
TestExecution.remove_link() method now accepts one parameter of type dict used to filter the objects which to remove
TestExecution.get_links() method now accepts one parameter of type dict instead of int
TestExecution.add_link() method signature changed from (int, str, str) to (dict), where the single parameter holds field values for the LinkReference model
Remove TestExecution.add_bug() method, use TestExecution.add_link()
Remove TestExecution.remove_bug() method, use TestExecution.remove_link()
Remove TestCase.add_bug() method
Remove TestCase.remove_bug() method
Remove Bug.remove() method, use TestExecution.remove_link()
Remove Bug.create() method, use TestExecution.add_link()
Add method Bug.details() which together with the underlying IssueTracker.details() is the foundation of how Kiwi TCMS fetches extra details from the issue tracking system. The default implementation uses OpenGraph protocol to collect the data that will be shown. You may override .details() for each issue tracker (or add your own IT) to extend this functionality. Information is cached for 1 hour by default. References Issue #117
Add methods Bug.add_tag() and Bug.remove_tag()
Existing method with name Bug.filter() has changed behavior. It is now used to query objects from Kiwi TCMS minimalistic defect tracker

Removed functionality¶

Remove IssueTrackerType.all_issues_link() method. This was used in TestRun Report page to show a single link that will open all bugs in the Issue Tracker. Most trackers don’t support this and the UI portion has been rewritten
Remove LinkOnly issue tracker - obsolete because all defects are now added to TestExecutions via their URLs
Remove bulk-add/bulk-remove of bugs in TestRun page, replaced by bulk-add for hyperlinks

Settings¶

Respect the CACHES setting, see Django docs for more info. Initially this setting is used to cache defect details received via Issue Tracker integration. See Issue #117

Bug fixes¶

Don’t auto-download FontAwesome for SimpleMDE. Resolves icons disappearing on pages which have the markdown editor. Fixes Issue #905
Reorder HTML elements so Delete button is still visible in TestCase review comment section. Fixes Issue #1013 (Rady Madjev)
Remove section that displays bugs in TestExecution container. Bugs are now denoted by a small icon next to their hyperlink. Closes Issue #475
Cache Issue Tracker connections per base_url. Fixes Issue #290

Refactoring¶

Lots of refactoring from function based views to class based views (Rady Madjev)
Use JavaScript and the API to remove case execution instead of dedicated backend function (Rady Madjev)
Update pylint directives around missing permissions (Svetlomir Balevski)
Fix typo in identifier. Fixes CID 344186
Use TestExecution.add_link() and TestExecution.remove_link() in UI instead of dedicated backend function.
Remove unused LinkReference views, forms and tests modules

Introduce a translation mode where you can translate the interface via in-context editor. For more information see Translation guide. Fixes Issue #1098
Updated Albanian translation
Updated Bulgarian translation
Updated Chinese Traditional translation
Updated French translation
Updated Greek translation
Updated Italian translation
Updated Slovenian translation

Database migrations¶

Populate missing TestCase.text history. In version 6.5 the TestCase model was updated to store the text into a single field called text instead of 4 separate fields. During that migration historical records were updated to have the new text field but values were not properly assigned.

The “effect” of this is that in TestCaseRun records you were not able to see the actual text b/c it was None.

This change ammends 0006_merge_text_field_into_testcase_model for installations which have not yet migrated to 6.5 or later. We also provide the data-only migration 0009_populate_missing_text_history which will inspect the current state of the DB and copy the text to the last historical record.

Removed functionality¶

Remove legacy reports. Closes Issue #657
Remove “Save & Continue” functionality from TestCase edit page
Renamed API methods:
- TestCaseRun.add_log() -> TestCaseRun.add_link()
- TestCaseRun.remove_log() -> TestCaseRun.remove_link()
- TestCaseRun.get_logs() -> TestCaseRun.get_links()
These methods work with URL links, which can be added or removed to test case runs.

Kiwi TCMS 6.5 (1 Feb 2019)¶

We are celebrating 10 years of open source history at FOSDEM, Brussels!

IMPORTANT: this is a minor security, improvement and bug-fix update that includes new versions of Django and other dependencies, removes some database fields, includes backend API updates and fixes several bugs.

Together with this release we announce:

kiwitcms-tap-plugin : for reading Test Anything Protocol (TAP) files and uploading the results to Kiwi TCMS
kiwitcms-junit.xml-plugin : for reading junit.xml formatted files and uploading the results to Kiwi TCMS

Both of these are implemented in Python and should work on standard TAP and junit.xml files generated by various tools!

Additionally 3 more plugins are currently under development by contributors:

Native JUnit 5 plugin written in Java
Native PHPUnit written in PHP
py.test plugin

Supported upgrade paths:

3   (or older) -> 5.3.1
3.1 (or newer) -> 6.0.1
0.1            -> 6.1
1              -> 6.1.1
1.1            -> 6.2 (or newer)

After upgrade don’t forget to:

./manage.py migrate

Security¶

Better override of SimpleMDE markdown rendering to prevent XSS vulnerabilities in SimpleMDE

Improvements¶

Update patternfly to version 3.59.1
Update bleach from 3.0.2 to 3.1.0
Update django-vinaigrette from 1.1.1 to 1.2.0
Update django-simple-history from 2.6.0 to 2.7.0
Update django-grappelli from 2.12.1 to 2.12.2
Update mysqlclient from 1.3.14 to 1.4.1
Update psycopg2 from 2.7.6.1 to 2.7.7
Update pygithub from 1.43.4 to 1.43.5
Convert TestCase page to Patternfly
- page menu is under ... in navigation bar
- Test plans card is missing the old ‘add plan’ functionality b/c we are not at all sure if adding plans to test cases is used at all. Can bring it back upon user request!
- Bugs card is missing the add/remove functionality for b/c we are not quite sure how that functionality is used outside test runs!
Convert new TestCase page to Patternfly and provide Given-When-Then text template. This prompts the author to use a BDD style definition for their scenarios. We believe this puts the tester into a frame of mind more suitable for expressing what needs to be tested
Add a favicon. Fixes Issue #532
Sort Component, Product and Version objects alphabetically. Fixes Issue #633
Search test case page now shows Components and Tags
Search test case page now allows filtering by date. Fixes Issue #715
Search test case page now uses radio buttons to filter by automation status
Small performance improvement when searching test plans and test cases
Search test run page now allows to filter by Product but still continue to display all Builds in the selected Product
Updated doc-string formatting for some tcms modules

Database migrations¶

Known issues: on our demo installation we have observed that permission labels were skewed after applying migrations. The symptom is that labels for removed models are still available, labels for some models may have been removed from groups/users or there could be permission labels appearing twice in the database.

This may affect only existing installations, new installations do not have this problem!

We are not certain what caused this but a quick fix is to remove all permissions from the default Tester group and re-add them again!

Remove TestCase.alias
Remove TestCaseRun.running_date
Remove TestCaseRun.notes
Remove TestCase.is_automated_proposed
Remove TestCaseText model, merge into TestCase.text field. Closes Issue #198
Remove Priority.sortkey
Remove Build.description
Remove Classification.sortkey and Classification.description
Convert TestCase.is_automated from int to bool
Rename TestCaseRun.case_run_status to status

API¶

New method TestCaseRunStatus.filter()
New method Product.create()
New method Classification.filter()
New method BugSystem.filter()
Changes to TestCase.add_component():
- now accepts component name instead of id
- now fails if trying to add components linked to another Product.
- now returns serialized TestCase object

Translations¶

MariaDB defaults are to use latin1 as the default character set and collation. This will lead to 500 internal server errors when trying to save data which does not use ASCII characters. This is a limitation with the underlying CentOS/MariaDB docker image and a solution has been proposed upstream.

You can manually update your existing databases by using the following instructions:
bash-4.2$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password:

MariaDB [(none)]> ALTER DATABASE kiwi CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

bash-4.2$ mysql -D kiwi -u root -p -B -N -e "SHOW TABLES" | awk '{print "ALTER TABLE", $1, "CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;"}' > /tmp/alter_charset.txt
Enter password:

bash-4.2$ cat /tmp/alter_charset.txt | mysql -D kiwi -u root -p
