A powerful Python-based CLI for complete TestRail REST API access with CSV-driven case management.

## Features

- **Complete API Coverage**: Access all TestRail REST API endpoints through intuitive commands
- **Multi-Profile Support**: Manage multiple TestRail instances with named profiles
- **CSV Import/Export**: Bulk import test cases from CSV with field mapping
- **Flexible Output**: JSON, table, or filtered field output formats
- **CI/CD Ready**: Perfect for automation pipelines and scripting
- **Type-Safe**: Full type hints and mypy validation
- **Well-Tested**: Comprehensive test coverage with pytest
- **Modern Tooling**: Built with Poetry, Ruff, and pre-commit hooks

## Installation

### Using pip

```bash
pip install py-testrail-cli
```

### Using pipx (recommended for CLI tools)

```bash
pipx install py-testrail-cli
```

### Using Poetry

```bash
poetry add py-testrail-cli
```

> The installed executable remains `testrail`.

### From source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/mokson/testrail-cli.git
cd testrail-cli
poetry install
```

## Quick Start

### Interactive Configuration

```bash
testrail config init
```

This will prompt you for your TestRail URL, email, and API key, then create `~/.testrail-cli.yaml`.

### Environment Variables

```bash
export TESTRAIL_URL=https://your-org.testrail.io
export TESTRAIL_EMAIL=your-email@example.com
export TESTRAIL_PASSWORD=your-api-key

testrail projects list
```

### Configuration File

Create `~/.testrail-cli.yaml`:

```yaml
profiles:
  default:
    url: https://your-org.testrail.io
    email: your-email@example.com
    password: your-api-key
    timeout: 30
    verify: true

  staging:
    url: https://staging.testrail.io
    email: staging@example.com
    password: staging-api-key
```

Use profiles with `--profile` flag:

```bash
testrail --profile staging projects list
```

**Configuration Precedence**: CLI flags > Environment variables > Config file

See `examples/example-config.yaml` for all configuration options.

## Common Use Cases

### Managing Projects and Suites

```bash
# List all projects
testrail projects list

# Create a new project
testrail projects add --name "My New Project" --announcement "Welcome!"

# List suites for a project
testrail suites list --project-id 1

# List sections within a suite
testrail sections list --project-id 1 --suite-id 5
```

### Working with Test Cases

```bash
# List all test cases
testrail cases list --project-id 1 --suite-id 5

# Filter by priority and creation date
testrail cases list --project-id 1 --priority-id 1,2 --created-after 2024-01-01

# Filter by specific case IDs
testrail cases list --project-id 1 --case-ids 123,124,125

# Add a new test case
testrail cases add \
  --section-id 10 \
  --title "Test user login with valid credentials" \
  --priority-id 2 \
  --estimate "5m" \
  --refs "JIRA-123"

# Add a new test case using a JSON file
testrail cases add --json new_case.json

# Update existing test case
testrail cases update 123 --title "Updated test title" --priority-id 1

# Update using a JSON file (for complex fields)
testrail cases update 123 --json update.json

# Update via stdin
echo '{"custom_preconds": "New preconditions"}' | testrail cases update 123 --file -

# Delete test case (soft delete)
testrail cases delete 123 --soft 1 --yes
```

### CSV Import: Bulk Test Case Creation

The CSV import feature is perfect for migrating test cases or bulk creation:

```bash
testrail cases import \
  --project-id 1 \
  --suite-id 5 \
  --csv test-cases.csv \
  --section-path "API/Authentication" \
  --template-id 2 \
  --steps-field custom_steps_separated \
  --create-missing-sections \
  --mapping field-mapping.yaml
```

**Example CSV (one row per step, `case_id` required)** (`test-cases.csv`):

```csv
case_id,title,section,priority_id,type_id,template_id,estimate,refs,step,expected,additional_info,mission,goals,preconds
,Checkout happy path,Checkout/Payments,2,1,3m,REQ-400,Open checkout,Form renders,,,
,Checkout happy path,Checkout/Payments,2,1,3m,REQ-400,Enter valid card,Payment succeeds,,,
,Exploratory Session,Exploratory,2,1,30m,REQ-600,,,,,Test App,Find Bugs,
```

- `case_id` column is mandatory; leave it blank to create, set it to update/overwrite (including steps).
- Specify the TestRail template via `--template-id` (overrides any CSV value).
- Each step is a separate CSV row repeating the case fields; the importer groups rows by `case_id` (or `title`+`section` when `case_id` is empty).
- `--steps-field` controls which TestRail field receives the steps (`custom_steps_separated` by default, or `custom_steps`/`custom_gherkin` for text/BDD templates).
- **Supported Template Fields**: The importer automatically maps standard CSV columns to TestRail custom fields:
  - `mission` -> `custom_mission` (Exploratory templates)
  - `goals` -> `custom_goals` (Exploratory templates)
  - `preconds` / `preconditions` -> `custom_preconds` (Steps templates)

**Export to CSV (same format as import)**:

```bash
testrail cases export \
  --project-id 1 \
  --suite-id 5 \
  --csv exported-cases.csv \
  --priority-id 1,2
```

You can export by filters (suite/section/priority/type) or explicit `--case-ids`, edit the CSV, and re-import with `cases import`.

See `examples/example-cases.csv` and `examples/example-mapping.yaml` for the reference format.

### Test Runs and Results

```bash
# Create a new test run
testrail runs add \
  --project-id 1 \
  --suite-id 5 \
  --name "Sprint 10 Regression" \
  --include-all true \
  --assignedto-id 5

# Add a single test result
testrail results add \
  --test-id 1001 \
  --status-id 1 \
  --comment "Test passed successfully" \
  --elapsed "5m"

# Bulk add results from JSON file
testrail results add-bulk --run-id 50 --results-file results.json

# Close a test run
testrail runs close 50
```

**Bulk Results Format** (`results.json`):

```json
[
  {
    "test_id": 1001,
    "status_id": 1,
    "comment": "Test passed",
    "elapsed": "2m"
  },
  {
    "test_id": 1002,
    "status_id": 5,
    "comment": "Test failed: timeout",
    "defects": "BUG-456",
    "elapsed": "5m"
  }
]
```

### Test Plans and Milestones

```bash
# List milestones
testrail milestones list --project-id 1

# Create a milestone
testrail milestones add \
  --project-id 1 \
  --name "Release 2.0" \
  --description "Q4 2024 Release" \
  --due-on 2024-12-31

# List test plans
testrail plans list --project-id 1 --is-completed 0

# Close a test plan
testrail plans close 25
```

### Output Formats and Filtering

```bash
# JSON output (default)
testrail projects list --output json

# Table output
testrail projects list --output table

# Table with specific fields only
testrail projects list --output table --fields id,name,is_completed

# Filter specific fields in JSON
testrail cases list --project-id 1 --suite-id 5 --fields id,title,priority_id
```

### Raw API Access

For endpoints not yet covered by specific commands, use the `raw` command:

```bash
# GET request
testrail raw --endpoint get_projects --method GET

# POST with inline data
testrail raw \
  --endpoint add_case/123 \
  --method POST \
  --data title="New test case" \
  --data priority_id=2

# POST with JSON file
testrail raw \
  --endpoint add_run/1 \
  --method POST \
  --payload-file run.json
```

## CI/CD Integration

          testrail results add-bulk --run-id ${{ secrets.RUN_ID }} --results-file results.json
          testrail runs close ${{ secrets.RUN_ID }}
```

### Jenkins Pipeline Example

```groovy

    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Upload Results') {
            steps {
                withCredentials([
                    string(credentialsId: 'testrail-url', variable: 'TESTRAIL_URL'),
                    string(credentialsId: 'testrail-email', variable: 'TESTRAIL_EMAIL'),
                    string(credentialsId: 'testrail-key', variable: 'TESTRAIL_PASSWORD')
                ]) {
                    sh '''
                        testrail results add-bulk --run-id ${RUN_ID} --results-file results.json
                        [ $? -eq 0 ] && testrail runs close ${RUN_ID}
                    '''
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Shell Script Example

```bash
#!/bin/bash
set -e

RUN_ID=$1
RESULTS_FILE="test-results.json"

# Upload results to TestRail
echo "Uploading test results to TestRail run ${RUN_ID}..."
testrail results add-bulk --run-id "${RUN_ID}" --results-file "${RESULTS_FILE}"

# Close the run if upload succeeded
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "Closing test run ${RUN_ID}..."
    testrail runs close "${RUN_ID}"
    echo "Test run closed successfully"
else
    echo "Failed to upload results"
    exit 1
fi
```
