Configure Bug Tracker

Configure the bug tracker according to your needs, similar to the following settings:

Use the following formats for the URLs:

Web service URL = https://www.pivotaltracker.com/services/v3

Project URL = https://www.pivotaltracker.com/projects/{ProjectID}

Root URL = https://www.pivotaltracker.com

Ticket URL = https://www.pivotaltracker.com/projects/{ProjectID}/stories/{BugID}

To configure the project ID, first enter the “Web service URL” and your user name and password, next click the “…”

in the “Project ID” line to select a project from the list.

Bug entering information

To further configure the dialog box that the user sees later to transfer bugs to the Pivotal Tracker, click the “…”

button in the “Bug Entering Information” line.

You can configure mandatory fields like “Bug title” and “Bug description” as well as optional fields like labels.

Configuring your user

In order to provide information about the user that is entering, you have to store Pivotal Tracker user information on

the current user.

If you are using the default example project which has disabled the user management functionality, you have to first

activate the user management in order to access the user management functions.

Set the “Disable user management” to “No”.

This enables the user management main menu option.

Click the “User management” button and edit your user.

In the “Edit user” dialog box, select the “Bug tracker” tab and click the “Configure bug tracker plug-in” button.

Fill in the field “Author name” with the login name of your Pivotal Tracker user.

You’ve finished the configuring part (you can adjust it any time you like in the future, of course).

If you do not want your user to log in, disable the user management again by setting the “Disable user

management” option in the Global project settings dialog to “Yes”.

Running a test run

Next, you can start a test run, as described in the user’s manual at test-management-software-documentation.zeta-

test.com/performing-test-runs.html.

First, create a new test run.

Clicking “OK” starts the test wizard form.

Switching to the “Bug tracker” tab and clicking the “Add” button shows the dialog box that you configured in the

previous steps.

Fill out the fields (or leave the defaults) and click the “OK” button. This creates the Pivotal Tracker story:

Clicking the “Open” button directly navigates your browser to the Pivotal Tracker’s story page.

Finished!

You’ve successfully configured Pivotal Tracker connectivity in Zeta Test and created an example story in Pivotal

Tracker from within the integrated, intuitive Test Management Environment Zeta Test, available at www.zeta-

test.com.
