uip tm defects

Syntax and options for `uip tm defects`, which raises defects from failed test case results, updates and deletes them, reads what they link to, and downloads their evidence.

uip tm defects manages defects in a Test Manager project. A defect is a bug raised from a failed test case result in an execution and synced to the project's external defect tracker, such as Jira or Azure DevOps. Each defect stays linked to the test case log it was raised from.

Test Manager syncs a new defect to the tracker in the background. SyncStatus reports where that stands: None, InProgress, Success, or Failed. Changes you make with update stay in Test Manager and are not pushed to the tracker.

uip tm defects list

List the defects in a project, one page at a time. The server has no name or status filter; narrow the result with --changed-since.

Arguments

Aucun

Options

Drapeau	Description
--project-key <key>	Test Manager project key. One of --project-key or --project-id is required. Ignored if --project-id is also given.
--project-id <id>	Test Manager project ID. Use instead of --project-key; wins if both are given.
--changed-since <iso-date>	Return only defects updated after this ISO-8601 timestamp, for example 2026-04-01T00:00:00Z. A value that is not a valid timestamp is refused before the request.
--sort-by <expression>	Sort as <Property> asc or <Property> desc, for example 'Updated desc'. Without it the server returns rows in no fixed order, so pass it when you page with --offset.
--limit <number>	Rows per page, from 1 to 100. Defaults to 50.
--offset <number>	Rows to skip. Defaults to 0.

Exemple

uip tm defects list \
  --project-key DEMO \
  --changed-since 2026-04-01T00:00:00Z \
  --sort-by "Updated desc" \
  --limit 20

uip tm defects create

Raise a defect from a test case's result in an execution. Test Manager writes the defect name and description from the result, then syncs the defect to the project's defect tracker in the background, so the response usually shows SyncStatus InProgress.

One result carries one defect. A second create for the same result fails while its defect is InProgress or Success. When the defect's SyncStatus is Failed, run create again to retry the sync.

Remarque :

With no tracker connected, the defect stays InProgress. Link it to an issue by hand with defects update --external-reference and --external-link.

--detail-link <url>	Link to the result in Test Manager, written into the defect description.
