Unable to export the entire responce for SQL database execution (JDBC) test

[Supriyo Ghosh]

I use version DevTest 10.4.0.366 . I have series of SQL database execution (JDBC) tests in my CA LISA devTest project suite which are using for ETL testing project . Now in DevTest 10.1 version I had a filter to export the query result output from the JDBC tests in excel format . But I do not have this filter option to export the entire resultset (for example 50 records returned from an SQL query) in excel format in current 10.4 version .

Please suggest the way forward as this is a basic feature of the tool missing in the current version and has become  showstopper for my ETL testing project & using this tool in my project.

Hi Supriya,

You can take the output of query in XML and parse it accordingly.

Thanks

Hi ,

Thanks for the information Vaibhav.

But is there anyone who could help me with the 'savetoExcelFile.jar' complied for DevTest 10.4 version . Because there are approximately 500 complex tests returning huge dataset in case of test case failures and parsing all of these xml outputs would lead to additional performance impact from running the automation suite.

Hi,

 

Sounds to me you have a customization added to your 10.4 environment.

 

Have you deployed that customize jar to your 10.6 environment? Where did you deploy it? HotDeploy? And if so, and it doesn't work anymore, can you find any stack traces in the log files? There might be a dependency of that customized jar file onto another jar file (often an opensource library), you might need to look in your 10.4 where that jar file was deployed (HotDeploy?) if there are not additional jar files to bring over to your 10. Environment.

 

Cheers,

Danny

Hi Danny , yes you are correct the JAR has been deployed in HotDeploy folder . Please note I am currently using DevTest 10.4 and my previous version was DevTest 10.1. Now this ​ 'savetoExcelFile.jar' is from the DevTest 10.1 version and I remember this is the olny jar file I got from this community last time I configure 10.1 version hot deploy folder and used to work fine . Hence I had copied only this jar to move from 10.1 hot deploy folder to 10.4 version hot deploy folder . Also I have defined this jar in the typemap.properties file filters section, following the same approch done in 10.1 version. 

Please sugget . Also please help me from where and how to check the log file as I am not much expert with this DevTest tool.

Hi Supriyo,

If it used old references, we might have to rebuild the jar using new references.
Please share the jar, will try to replicate the same for 10.5.

Thanks

Thanks a lot Vaibhav for the help. Please find the Jar attached.​ Will rebuilding for 10.5 work for 10.4 as well ?

Hi Supriyo,

As per my understanding, i don't think this will need a rebuild as i was able to test (i had a jar with me) on 10.5 sucessfully.

Can you highlight the exact issue you are getting with your jar.

P.S: I have not tested the jar you shared as of now

Thanks

Hi Vaibhav,

The devtest registry is down currently. I am expecting a fix by an hour or two . Will surely share screenshot of the same once it is up. Meanwhile could you please share your jar with me so that I can test once its up. Thanks..

[Vaibhav Jain]

Hi Supriyo,

Share error details once you have available components, as i was able to execute the same filter using your jar as well in 10.5

Thanks

Hi Vaibhav,

​Please find attached the screenshot from DevTest where there are no Filters present for Excel export . Also attached the screenshot of the Folder HotDeploy & typemap.properties file. Please let me know if anything else required. Pls guide me through this issue :)

Hi Supriyo,

Are you having all components on single machine i.e. registry, vse, workstation etc?

If all are in different, then you have to copy the jar (& update typemap.properties) in both machine, where devtest server is running and where workstation resides. Also, restart all components once configuration is done.

Also, the filter will come under custom not under DB:

Thanks

Hi Vaibhav,

Yes the workstation & DevTest registry Server ​are on different machines. I have raised a service ticket with the Client team to get the jar copied & typemap.properties file updated on the DevTest server side too. Once ticket gets resolved will let you know if this solves the problem .. Anyway thanks a lot for your expert advice …. :)

[Vaibhav Jain]

Thanks for the update.

It should work post configuration changes at server side.

Thanks

@Vaibhav Jain : That was a perfect resolution provided. Support team got the jar deployed in Hotdeploy directory of Devtest ​​Server. Now the filter is enabled in my workstation. Thanks a lot … This issue had become a showstopper for our automation. :)

[Vaibhav Jain]

Great, glad to hear. 

Thanks for the update
