Field :suite_id is a required field.

Hi all,

after following your instructions and trying to send information to Testrail I got the following error:

Error: Field :suite_id is a required field.

Full stacktrace:

Maybe the Testrail API have changed to require the suiteID?

@leafarenuk Thank you for your feedback.

I'll doublecheck with a Testrail 7.1 instance and get back to you asap. If i can't reproduce i'll make the suite_id configurable.

Cheers

Hi @leafarenuk

in the testrail docs i found the following

suite_id | int | The ID of the test suite for the test run (optional if the project is operating in single suite mode, required otherwise)

So i assume you are trying to use the cypress testrail reporter in a multi suite mode (if that's the correct name). To get this working for you i'll have to allow a suite_id to be passed from outside.

Would the following work for you and your use case?

yarn cypress-testrail-reporter --name SOME_NAME --reportFilename PATH_TO_YOUR_REPORT --suiteId 123

Alternatively a suite ID could also be maintained in the cypress.json (as a fallback).

@ma-jahn thanks for your investigation and answer!

yes that should be fine.

I think it would be also good to set the suiteId in cypress.json. That would everyone who uses the "multi suite mode"

Hi @leafarenuk

the merge request was merged #3 and you should be able to install Version 1.2.6.

There are 2 ways of setting the suiteId.

1. Within your testrailReporter section of your cypress.json
2. As argument like yarn cypress-testrail-reporter --suiteId "123"

Please let me know if this works for you. Cheers!
