TestComplete integration with TestRail
Hi, I am using TestRail to manage my Test suites and I am using TestComplete to perform automation testing of my application. TestComplete allows to set log defects to JIRA. But doe...

Can I please get more information on how to get the library going?
Specially the notes in the script can you clarify the steps to do it?
// Note: this functionality depends on 3rd party .NET libraries that needed to be compiled by you. We downloaded the testrail .NET api bindings
// from the testrail website, along with the Json.NET library. Using visual Studio 2010, we built the Gurock.TestRail library, referencing the Newtonsoft.Json
// library. We built x86 and x64 versions using .NET 3.5. In this project, the libraries are stored in a folder next to the project, and have
// already been linked to the project via the CLR bridge.
Thank you

It's not a RESTful API. So you need to use the code they provide for binding to various languages and integrate it into TC using the CLR Bridge functionality. Which allows you to use external libraries.
The previous poster used the .NET bindings.
So start reading here: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/advanced/using-external-functions/calling-from-dotnet-assemblies.html
Which is what you'll need to use: http://docs.gurock.com/testrail-api2/bindings-dotnet
Now, I do notice that TestRail refer to that as V2 of their API. I have no idea if the above script was written using these bindings, or ones from an older version.
But above all, you need to understand how to use external libraries. Once you understand that, then you can start worrying about how you create and use one for TestRail. (And you need someone who knows their way around Visual Studio and .NET to make all this work.)
