Is it possible to retrieve the step status of a testscript?

Heya,

 

I am wondering if it is possible to retrieve the test step status via the API. At this moment i could only see it's possible to retrieve the test script status. Could anyone help me with this?

    Thank you for reaching out to Zephyr Scale Cloud Support.

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to retrieve the result of the test step from the test execution because at the moment Zephyr Scale doesn’t have a method that would allow you to retrieve this value from the database.

    I'm not a big user of the API, but it does seem that you can't get at the step results using either GetTestExecution or GetTestExecutions in the Cloud version.  We don't always get a lot of response from the community about API questions so you might want to contact SmartBear support instead - they are normally quick to respond.

     

    I'd be interested to hear what you find out 🙂

      I don't know if it matters that we're hosting it our self? Anyways, thanks for the tip, I'll try SmartBear!

        Ah, i'm unable to register there for a request, because we're hosting the zephyr scale ourselves. Would you have any other idea's on where to check for help?

    Strange.  I don't see why hosting yourself would mean you can't use the support team.  I will raise the question with them and direct them to this post.

     

    You could try messaging or tagging the other community leader here for help.  His name is josh42 and he has more experience using APIs.
