Is it possible to update an existing test execution with a cucumber.json import file
Asked by Maximilian Kaltner:

Hello guys,

i have a nightly selenium test running in jenkins. It exports cucumber feature files from Jira/Xray, runs the test and imports the **xrayresultimport.json** via REST-API back to Jira/Xray. Currently this creates me a new test execution nightly, where all executed tests are documented as passed or failed.

What i want is, instead of creating a new test execution it should update an already existing test execution night by night and document the tests inside of the test execution as passed or failed.

Here is my **xrayresultimport.json**

```
{
  "fields": {
    "project": {
      "key": "MPPITO"
    },
    "summary": "Test Execution for Cucumber results (Generated by job: <build-tag>) via Pipeline",
    "description": "Test Execution for Cucumber results In Jenkins\n(Job Cucumber Report: <build-url>/cucumber-html-reports/overview-features.html) \n Build Job URL: <build-url>",
    "customfield_10928": [
      "<browser>","Jenkins"
    ],
    "issuetype": {
      "id": "10402"
    }
  }
}
```

Here is my **rest-api call**:

```
curl -u $ACCESS_KEY_QQCONT1 -F info=@build/xrayresultimport.json -F result=@target/cucumber.json https://.../jira/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber/multipart'
```

Is this possible or not and how could this work?

Thanks \& regards

Max

for the time being, if you use multipart endpoints, then new Test Execution issues will always be created.

I'm not sure if you're using Jira cloud or server, but nevertheless I've added suggestions to our backlog. Please review and vote on them so we can track your interest on it.

thanks for reply.

Is it possible if i dont use multipart endpoint?

Where or how can i vote for <https://jira.xpand-it.com/browse/XRAY-6221> and for <https://jira.xpand-it.com/browse/XRAYCLOUD-2375> ?

Thanks and best regards

1. if you dont use the multipart; it's possible you'll need to export the Test Execution firstand the feature file will contain the issue key of the Test Execution. Or you can put it yourself on the feature as a tag on the Feature element.

2. you need to login in that Jira instance and then on the right-side pane you should be able to vote, next to the Votes section.

to 1. do I or can I use the same xrayimportresult.json as above or is it another one?

**Description of my use-case:**

We have a Release-Testplan for each release, there is a linked test-execution with several linked tests . Some of those tests will be done manual and some of it will be done automatically via cucumber/selenium night by night.

So each night by the automated run, the cucumber testcases of this exeution should get updated if the tests passed or failed.

body: Here is my Test-Execution MPPITO-6187 with 3 cucumber Tests:

![TESTEXEC.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/104398iA271471E8EDD6514/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "TESTEXEC.PNG")Here is my exported featurefile:

One Zip with 3 featurefiles... all of the featurefiles do include the test execution key:

![featurefiles.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/104400iAA0E88F552AA5917/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "featurefiles.PNG")

It runs the cucumber test and afterwards it imports the result with the following commands:

```
log.outputBanner("Import cucumber results")
junit allowEmptyResults: true, keepLongStdio: true, testResults: 'target/**/*.xml'

cucumber 'target/**/*.json'

sh 'sed -i -r s,"<build-tag>","\"${BUILD_TAG}\"",g build/xrayresultimport.json'
sh 'sed -i -r s,"<build-url>","\"${BUILD_URL}\"",g build/xrayresultimport.json'
sh "sed -i -r s,\"<browser>\",\"${params.BROWSER}\",g build/xrayresultimport.json"

sh 'curl -u $ACCESS_KEY_QQCONT1 -F info=@build/xrayresultimport.json -F result=@target/cucumber.json https://myDomain/jira/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber'
```

But the TEST-Execution MPPITO-6187 wont get updated.... aftwards...so what i thought that this testcases getting green or red status is not happening. It is still in "TODO" status.

![todo.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/104402iC5C0A017E6CD4727/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "todo.PNG")

body: Hi [@Maximilian Kaltner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4019447) ,

if you use the standard Cucumber endpoint, as detailed in <https://confluence.xpand-it.com/display/XRAY/Import+Execution+Results+-+REST#ImportExecutionResultsREST-CucumberJSONresults>, you just have to specify the cucumber json report produced by cucumber.

So the curl command would be something like this:

```
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -u admin:admin --data @target/@cucumber_output.json http://yourserver/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber
```

Please try to do this request by hand and check its response to see if everything is fine.

If you did exported the cucumber features from Xray UI or by using the REST API, then the scenarios should be properly tagged with the corresponding Test issues.

In some instances people configure the export prefix for cucumber Tests with "TEST_".. so a test with issue key CALC-1 would be converted to a tag like @TEST_CALC-1

Please check also the following setting that you have for replacing hyphens whenever exporting the tags [https://confluence.xpand-it.com/display/XRAY/Miscellaneous#Miscellaneous-Replacedash\[-\]withunderscore\[_\]whenexportingissuekeysastags](https://confluence.xpand-it.com/display/XRAY/Miscellaneous#Miscellaneous-Replacedash[-]withunderscore[_]whenexportingissuekeysastags)

Notes: The standard endpoint doesn't allow you to configure the description or other fields on the Test Execution issue though; that's a current limitation that you can only overcome if you do use the multipart endpoint. The multipart endpoint in turn will always create new Test Executions.

If you still have doubts, I think the best is to reach out to [Xray support](https://jira.xpand-it.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/2) and try setting up a call.

Sergio

thank you for the hint.

The curl to import is not working in jenkins yet. It could not read data from file, so it sends an empty POST.

Do you see some errors?

It will imported without error now, but my test execution and the linked tests won?t get updated :(

I think my exported feature files look good, but it is something wrong with the POST maybe...

thank you so much for you never ending help the last days.

It is working now, so everything is fine - at the end there was a little missing within the curl

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -u admin:admin --data target/@cucumber_output.json http://yourserver/**jira**/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber

i just copied your comment on top since i was also experiencing the same issue like /t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4019447 reported,want to execute  multiple test througha single execution key using export cucmber feature...


So if i am using curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -u admin:admin --data @target/@cucumber_output.json http://yourserver/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber thsi commabd how can i pass my

```
info=@build/xrayresultimport.json


```


author: Sergio Freire - Xblend
body: Hi [@rgnair](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3721840) ,

well, that endpoint only accepts the cucumber JSON report.

There is the multipart endpoint (<https://docs.getxray.app/display/XRAY/Import+Execution+Results+-+REST#ImportExecutionResultsREST-CucumberJSONresultsMultipart>) which accepts the info object. The URL for this endpoint is obviously a distinct one.

Let me quote the example provided in the docs above.

Example Request

```
curl -u admin:admin -F info=@createTestExec.json -F result=@results.json?http://yourserver/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber/multipart
```

Hope this clarifies.

If not, let me know :)

Sergio

body: hi [@Sergio Freire - Xblend](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/660760) thiis what i am using

curl -u admin:admin -F info=@C:\\CFS-Workspace\\testautomation\\jenkinsfiles\\testautomation\\xrayresultimport.json -F result=@C:\\CFS-Workspace\\testautomation\\target\\cucumber.json https://########/rest/raven/1.0/import/execution/cucumber/multipart

two issues here

1)its not updating the execution key with result creating a new execution key for each test case inside that execution key .it is still in TODO status eventhough its created new execution for these each test case below.![Capture.PNGexceution.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/109561iD838075327BE9143/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Capture.PNGexceution.PNG")


author: Sergio Freire - Xblend
body: [@rgnair](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3721840) , as mentioned above, currently if you want to customize the Test Execution issue you'll have to use the multipart endpoint. However, the multipart endpoint will always create new Test Execution issues.

If you don't need to customize the Test Execution issue, you can use the standard cucumber endpoint.

There are currently no workarounds; please vote on the improvement issues I've mentioned above.

In any case, you can always reach out [Xray support team](https://jira.xpand-it.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/2) and detail exactly your needs.

body: [@rgnair](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3721840) , I think your info object (xrayresultimport.json) is not correct due to \<build-tag\>, \<jira-fixed-version-id\>, \<build-url\>.

Try to hardcode values for it first of all.

You should check Jenkins pipeline syntax in order to see how to pass variables; I \*think\* it should be something like the following, but I'm not 100% sure

```
${myVariable}
```

author: Sergio Freire - Xblend
body: [@rgnair](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3721840) you should add the Content-Type header in your HTTP PUT request.

```

 curl -v -u admin:admin -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data @update_issue.json http://192.168.56.102/rest/api/2/issue/CALC-7877
```

This is my update_issue.json, as a mere example

```
{
"fields": {
"summary": "Test Execution for cucumber Execution",
"description": "example",
"customfield_11805" : [
"iOS"
],
"fixVersions" :
[
{
"name": "v3.0"
}
]
}
}?
```


author: rgnair

\* schannel: clear security context handle

When i hit this with decsription only its worked :)...from where can i get the custome fileds ids to pass through this json file,any docs


author: Sergio Freire - Xblend
body: Yes, please consult ask your Jira admin to provide them, it can be seen in the Jira administration "custom fields" section.


author: Sergio Freire - Xblend
body: Besides, the error you're having is because that project doesn't have a release named "v3.0". You need to adjust the request to your scenario.
