I am using OTA to upload test cases from excel to ALM.
I have used the excel add-in and have found it to be quite cumbersome for my project needs, so I am writing a custom script to accomplish the task.
Note: Version Control is ON.
I have version control on, therefore, I need to check out the created test case before I can add steps. Preferably, I'd like to be able to check in the test case again when I am complete. Is there a way to do this with the OTA api?
This is the script that I am using:
Sub UploadTC()

Dim qcUserName, qcPassword, qcDomain, qcProj

Dim trfolder, trtest
Dim dsf, dstep, steplist
Dim TCR As Range
Dim cache As Range
Dim scount As Range
'Fields
Dim TCName As Range
Dim TCStep As Range
Dim TCDesc As Range
Dim TCExRe As Range
Dim TCComm As Range
Dim TCType As Range

Set trmgr = QCConnection.TreeManager

'Create Project Folder
Set trfolder = trmgr.NodebyPath("Subject").AddNode(.Cells(3, 2))
trfolder.Post
'Loop through each row in sheet from A4
