Extension:Testopia Reports

What can this extension do?
Like the extension Bugzilla Reports this extension is aiming for integrating reports from Bugzilla addon Testopia. Furthemore is it able to produce charts using the Google Chart API. The reports are providing links through to Bugzilla and Testopia.

Due to its modular setup it should be easy to add additional reports.

Currently the following reports are included with more to come:
 * Test Case Status Report per test run
 * Priority Breakdown Report per test run
 * Bug Status Report per test run
 * Test plan and test cases
 * Agenda - a report creating an agenda from the test cases inclueded in a test run using the dependencies

Some examples:

It has been extensively tested with MySQL but not with PostgreSQL although it should work with that database too.

Basic Usage
To include a report a parser function is used:

This will include the report only without chart. To render the data in form of a chart an additional parameter must be included:

This will render the same report but with 2D pie chart attached to it.

More complex example
This will render the report
 * testplan
 * with four charts testers,tstatus,category,tprio
 * rendered as pie3,pie,pie3 and bar chart
 * with the widths 500,400,450,400
 * positioned above the data table
 * as 2x2 grid
 * the report be will initially minimized and could be expanded by the user by pressing the button "Show"

This will render the report agenda for test run 2 using some report options.

Parameters

Download instructions
Download the latest version from Google Code.

Installation
To install this extension, add the following to : and add the configuration block described below. If you are having an older installation, delete the old directory first.

Configuration parameters
Configuration example (Windows + Google Chart API):

Graphviz
Graphviz could be downloaded here: http://www.graphviz.org/

Follow the installation instructions and and the set parameter "graphviz" in Localsettings.php accordingly. Under Windows the graphviz should be installed in a path not having spaces. This extension has been tested with version 2.22.2.

Styles
Nearly every aspect of the appearance could be changed by changing the CSS file /skins/tr_main.css. If the result table is displayed with the sorted feature, the MediaWiki build-in class sortable is used.

Creating new reports

Chart Colors
If you do not like the pre-defined colors feel free to change them in class TR_Colors.php. Every color used for the charts is defined there.

 * new parameter: reportoptions (list of additional pairs of parameters (param=value) for reports separated by comma
 * new parameter: roundperc; number of decimals for percentage rounding (e.g. roundperc=2); default: 0
 * new parameter for Localsettings.php: graphviz - for specifying the location of the program "dot" for generating dependency graphs

 * new report "agenda": automatically creating the agenda for a test run using the test case dependencies. If graphviz is installed a dependency graph will be created. This report is supporting the following reportoptions:
 * starthour (default: 8) The start hour for one test day. Test cases will be scheduled using this start time
 * startminute (default: 0) See starthour
 * endhour (default: 18) The end hour for one test day.
 * endminute (default: 0) See endhour
 * startdate (default: current system date) Agenda will start on this day.

 * highlighting durations with 00:00:00

 * others
 * removed support for ploticus; maybe I will pick up it later but for the moment it is too complex to include

Version 0.3 - 23.05.2009

 * bug fixes
 * fixed typo in a report name; now it is completion
 * fixed wrong counter in charts for Priority Breakdown Report
