Importing project not working

When importing projects only project-level properties are imported, but no tests. This is the project I've worked on thru ReadyAPI GUI and is integrated with git. After resolving merge conflicts in g...

    Hey sjakovac 

     

    When you create a new project in ReadyAPI - it creates the project as a single flat .xml file.

     

    ReadyAPI includes the capability to split that single flat .xml file into multiple files (this is termed a 'composite' file) and allows for multiple users to save changes to the same project via version controlled software like Git.

     

    If you create a project it doesn't convert files by default to composite file - the file is created as the single flat .xml file. to convert to composite, you need to either save as composite, (or change the project property) or use the menu options (Git >> enable version control) 

     

    hope I've been clear,

     

    When I saw your original post, I wondered if saving the project (that appears to have lost all it's content) BACK to a single project .xml, checking if the content was now present, and then re-converting to the composite might have resolved your problem - but then someone else posted a likely fix and I forgot all about your post.

     

    Cheers,

hello sjakovac 

 

You might reference the content in link:

I saw the same issue in my project a few days ago and following the instructions from Tanya (To fix the issue) in the link, the warning log messages were resolved.  To fix the issue, delete the project.content file from the project directory. ReadyAPI will generate a new one on project opening.

 

In short, the reason could be caused by multiple people making changes to a repository based composite project and/or multiple people with different versions of ReadyAPI working on the same composite project.  All users accessing a composite project should be on the same ReadyAPI version. 

 

Regards,

Todd

Unfortunately, this did not solve our problem.

Still, no tests are visible through a desktop application but running with {ready-api-install-directory}/bin/testrunner.sh from the same project directory executes tests correctly.
