Re: [lyo-dev] Issue Getting and Setting Test Plan's Related Change Reque

[Paul McMahan <pmcmahan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Some OSLC service providers (such as RQM) support partial update, meaning that you can designate which specific properties should be updated via the oslc.properties request parameter.

For example, you can replace the test plan's current list of related change requests as follows.

PUT /tesptlan/1?oslc.properties=oslc_qm:relatedChangeRequest
<RDF>
   <TestPlan>
      <relatedChangeRequest resource="..."/>
   </TestPlan>
</RDF>

If you want to add to the list of related change requests instead of replace it then you would need to GET (or query for) the testplan first.

See http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/OslcCoreSpecification#Selective_Property_Values

Thanks for the confirmation.  The thing is, I need to create OSLC links and thus need to PUT things back.  The big lesson learned today is that if you PUT back, you better have done a GET on the entire asset, or else when you PUT it back, you're going to lose (i.e., not put back) whatever you didn't GET.  I suppose the other option would be to do a partial update.  Does the API support doing a partial update of OSLC links?

If you need to get a testplan which has a particular web ID then using the query is the best approach.   You should be able to include the test plan's list of related change requests in the query response instead of doing a additional GET if you add "oslc_qm:relatedChangeRequest" to the select.

User error, which I discovered while writing this response. 

Full disclosure:  in my particular use case the staring point is the RQM reportable REST API; I then switch to OSLC.  Here are the details of how I was actually doing the GET (@Paul:  Is there a better way to GET a test asset if your starting point is the web ID of the asset?).  The problem was the use of setSelect(): 

public TestPlan getTestPlanByWebId(String testPlanWebId) { 

              TestPlan theOslcTestPlan = null; 
              if (rqmTestPlanQueryCapability == null) { 
                      rqmTestPlanQueryCapability = getTestPlanQueryCapability(); 
              } 

              OslcQueryParameters queryParams = new OslcQueryParameters(); 
              queryParams.setWhere("oslc:shortId=" + testPlanWebId); 
              queryParams.setSelect("dcterms:identifier,oslc:shortId,dcterms:title"); //THE PROBLEM 
              OslcQuery query = new OslcQuery(rqmClient, rqmTestPlanQueryCapability, 
                              1, queryParams); 

              OslcQueryResult result = query.submit(); 

              for (TestPlan tp : result.getMembers(TestPlan.class)) { 
                      theOslcTestPlan = tp; 
              } 

              return theOslcTestPlan; 
} 


Changing the for loop in that method to this fixed the issue: 

for (TestPlan tp : result.getMembers(TestPlan.class)) { 
      theOslcTestPlan = tp; 
      try { 
              theOslcTestPlan = rqmClient.getResource( 
                                      theOslcTestPlan.getAbout().toString(), 
                                      OslcMediaType.APPLICATION_RDF_XML).getEntity( 
                                      TestPlan.class); 
              } catch (IOException e) { 
                      e.printStackTrace(); 
              } catch (OAuthException e) { 
                      e.printStackTrace(); 
              } catch (URISyntaxException e) { 
                      e.printStackTrace(); 
              } 
      }

I don't see a problem with TestPlan class in Lyo, and you mentioned that you observed this behavior with CLM 4.0.5.   Are there some intermediate steps such as GET or PUT resources to the CLM server that are required to recreate this issue?

I'm seeing the following behavior with CLM 4.0.5: 

1.  TestPlan.getRelatedChangeRequests() always returns an empty array. 

2.  TestPlan.addRelatedChangeRequest() sets instead of adds, i.e., adds the change request you pass it and blows away the change requests that are already linked to the plan.
