• –server <value>

  If this argument is not defined, localhost is used as the default.

• –port <value>

  (Optional, default = 53400) Port number of the repository server.

  注意: 
  • If this argument is set to 0 or not defined, the default port number 53400 is used.
  • If port number of the source repository server has been changed from its TestArchitect default of 53400, ensure that the correct port number is specified.

• –uid <value>

  User name with which to log in to repository.

  注意: 
  If the user namecontains any spaces, enclose it between a pair of double quotation marks.

• –pwd <value>

  Password for the given user name.

• –repoName <value>

  Name of the target repository.

  注意: 
  If the repository namecontains any spaces, enclose it between a pair of double quotation marks..

• –projectName <value>

  Name of the target TestArchitect project.

  注意: 
  If the project namecontains any spaces, enclose it between a pair of double quotation marks.

• –sourceFile <value>

  Path to file that is to be imported.

  注意: 
  • Network paths are also supported.

• –ID <value>

  ID of the project item root node (Tests, Data, etc.) or folder into which the item is to be imported. In the case of importing test cases, ID must be that of a test module.

• –overwrite <true|false>

  (Optional, default = false) Specify whether the existing project item or test case, if any, should be overwritten.

  注意: 
  If this parameter is not specified, or its value is empty, its value defaults to false.

• –includePictureChecks <yes|no>

  (Optional, default = yes; applicable only to import of test module) Specifies whether the regular picture checks belonging to the source test module are to be included.

  注意: 
  • This parameter is only applicable for test modules. If the target item is not a test module, this parameter, if declared, is simply ignored.
  • Only a .zip file containing an exported test module can include that test module’s picture checks. Hence a value of yes for this parameter is only effectual when the -sourceFile parameter specifies a .zip file.

Example: Importing test modules including regular picture checks
