问题
I am trying to create reports in the 'Analysis View' using OTA and HP ALM 11.52. I've searched the OTA Reference Documentation and looked for samples online and I've found a few samples, but none seem to work.
There seem to be three methods utilised:
TDConnection.GraphBuilder.BuildGraph(GraphDefinition)
TDConnection.testFactory.BuildSummaryGraph("TS_STATUS", "TS_STATUS", "", 0, myFilter, False, False)
and a third method involving an AnalysisItemFactory object that I can't find anywhere in the OTA documentation.
I've tried the first two and they seem to run without triggering an error, however, no graph appears in ALM.
Is there a difference between these methods and which is the cleanest method?
Here are my attempts so far:
'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Method 1: GraphBuilder
'Set GB = QCConnection.GraphBuilder
'Set G1 = GB.CreateGraphDefinition(2, 0)
'G1.Property(0) = "TS_NAME"
'G1.Property(1) = "TC_STATUS"
'Set tsf = QCConnection.TestSetFactory
'Set myFilter = tsf.Filter
'myFilter.Filter ("TC_STATUS") = "Not(N/A)"
'G1.Filter = "Filter: Status[Not N/A]"
'Set g = GB.BuildGraph(G1)
'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Method 2: BuildSummaryGraph
'Dim testF
'Dim graph1
'Dim Filter
'Set testF = QCConnection.testFactory
'Set myFilter = testF.Filter
'myFilter.Filter("TS_STATUS") = "Not(N/A)"
'Set graph1 = _
'testF.BuildSummaryGraph("TC_NAME", "TS_STATUS", "", 0, myFilter, False, False)
'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Method 3: AnalysisItemsFactory? I can't find any documentation on this object, yet I've seen it referenced in other code samples.
'Set aiFolderFact = QCConnection.AnalysisItemFolderFactory
'Set aiFact = QCConnection.AnalysisItemFactory ~~~ This line actually runs fine so I know it at least exists. But I am definitely not using the proper methods below.
'Set G1 = aiFact.AddItem("")
'G1.Field("AI_PARENT_ID") = 1001 'Public
'G1.Field("AI_TYPE") = "Graph"
'G1.Field("AI_SUB_TYPE") = "Progress Graph"
'G1.Field("AI_OWNER") = qcUserName.Value
'G1.Field("AI_MODULE") = "requirement"
'G1.Field("AI_NAME") = "test graph"
'G1.Post
As I mentioned previously, all of these scripts run error free, but I see no graph in the Analysis View. I've also noticed that there seem to be no "Name" or "Path" fields.
I've taken a look at the tables, and there seems to be 'Analysis_Item_Folder' and 'Analysis Items' tables so It's know it's possible to do this through the OTA client. Is there an AnalysisItemFactory and could someone please kindly provide a sample script of what i'm looking for? Thanks

I was able to generate a report with the help of this HP ALM forum entry. As in the forum mentioned it is not an official documented feature of HP ALM. Therefore it can be that in the future it won't work without replacement. Please keep that in mind.
In case the forum entry may get deleted I copied the answer by a user called "delarosa62" here (date of copy 2015/9/8):
Hi MichaelMotes and the rest of the community members.
I developed a VBA code to generate dashboard standard reports automatically. I get the "successfull exception" you have mentioned. However my report does not get generated in my hard disk.
I don´t get any errors. I have adapted your Visial Basic Code to VBA using OTA. I have the otareport 1.0 Type Library and otaxml type lib registered in the tools/reference option in the VBA module window.
I am pasting my code below hoping you guys can give me some insight on this. I am not getting any errors. Just the exception which includes a successfull completion message. Thanks in Advanced

Graphs can be generated under analysis folder, its a bit of a process because you need a sound understanding of the database, XML and OTA API. There is no direct API available for building graphs, I have created the code samples below
https://github.com/sumeet-kushwah/ALM_OTA_Wrapper/blob/master/ALM_Wrapper/Analysis.cs
Check the following functions
CreateDefectAgeGraph
CreateExcelReport
CreateDefectSummaryGraph
CreateSummaryGraph
These functions are called from the tests available below
https://github.com/sumeet-kushwah/ALM_OTA_Wrapper/blob/master/ALM_Wrapper_Tests/ALM_Wrapper_Test.cs
Look for test function
Test_AnalysisAndDashboardScripts
If you have any questions regarding the process, please let me know.
