Windchill Systems/Software Engineering Ideas (Integrity)

Improvement As a Requirements Engineer/Test Engineer I want to export a requirement document/test suite (segment), which consists of requirements/test cases (nodes) including their respective test cases/requirements. Requirements/Test cases are linked to test cases/requirements via a trace relationship.   As-Is situation It is possible to export IDs of linked items through Gateway: <field internal="Verifies" external="Verifies" field-type="relationship" /> And regarding PTC Gateway User Guide it is also possible to include related content via attribute include-related:   <field internal="Verifies" external="Verifies" field-type="relationship" include-related="yes"/> Enable Gateway debugging, and it can be confirmed by looking at logfile GatewayApp.log that Gateway application is actually parsing data of linked objects. Until the following happens: 2/26/18 11:17 AM -- [Gateway-App] DEBUG(10): Flattening tree structure... Gateway is only exporting items of one document (segment).   PTC Services has a solution to overcome this restriction (thanks to @VolkerEckardt) . I appreciate this work, however, I would prefer an integrated solution for several reasons: e.g. official support, compatibility issues, etc.   Cheers, Richard.   References Gateway Knowledge Hub Gateway slow with "include-related" set to "true" Gateway: Possibility to export related issues Differences between Gateway configuration versions Integrity Ideas: Ability to query list of test steps by Test Suite id Acess 1:N related data in XML to Word export ...

Suggesting Idea on behalf of Frank Hartwig :   With this feature we give the user a possibility to destroy some of their data. So we should design it in a way that incorrect operations are minimised. 1. I expect the IRC to show only documents in the list, which match to the mapping file. 2. All documents in the list must not be selected by default.   Steps to reproduce : 1. Start the "Cleanup database" within a project for ILM using global replication. 2. I used a mapping file, where only one document type is defined. But in the database exist other documents based on other document types. 3. All documents, which not match to the mapping file are listed. 4. All documents in the list are selected. ... View more
