# qmetry_link_test_cases_to_test_suite

Link test cases to a test suite in QMetry. Parameters: - tsID (number) *required*: Id of Test Suite (required) - tcvdIDs (array) *required*: Array of Test Case Version IDs (required if fromReqs is false) - fromReqs (boolean): Link TestCases from Requirements (optional, default false) Output Description: JSON object with linkage status and details. Use Cases: 1. Link test cases to a test suite by entity keys 2. Bulk link multiple test cases to a suite 3. Automate test suite composition from test cases Examples: 1. Link test cases to a test suite json { "tsID": 8674, "tcvdIDs": [ 5448504, 5448503 ], "fromReqs": false } Expected Output: Test cases QTM-TC-32 and QTM-TC-35 linked to test suite 8674. 2. Link test cases directly to test suites with test cases entityKeys VT-TC-9, VT-TC-10 to test suite id 1487397 json { "tsID": 1487397, "tcvdIDs": [ 5448504, 5448503 ], "fromReqs": false } Expected Output: Test cases VT-TC-9 and VT-TC-10 linked to test suite 1487397. 3. Link test case VT-TC-4, VT-TC-1,VT-TC-101, VT-TC-22 to test suite VT-TS-3 json { "tsID": 1487397, "tcvdIDs": [ 5448504, 5448503, 5448505, 5448506 ], "fromReqs": false } Expected Output: Test cases VT-TC-4, VT-TC-1, VT-TC-101, and VT-TC-22 linked to test suite VT-TS-3. Hints: 1. To get the tsID, call the Fetch Test Suites for Test Case API with rootFolderId otherwise if given folderid so use that and from response get the id. 2. To get the tcvdIDs by testcase entityKey, call the Testcase/Fetch Versions API and use data[<index>].tcVersionID. 3. Set fromReqs to false to direct test case linkage.
