Configure the TestLink Integration

If you use the TestLink test management system for quality assurance, you can integrate this system and use YouTrack to track bugs.

To integrate YouTrack with TestLink:

Log in to your TestLink instance with an administrator account.
Open the System > Issue Tracker Management page and click the Create button.
In the Create configuration dialog, enter a name for the configuration and select youtrack (interface: rest) from the Type drop-down list.
In the Configuration field, provide the following information:
- Enter the credentials for the account that is used to log in to YouTrack. To link existing issues from YouTrack to TestLink cases, this user must have Read Issue permission in the YouTrack project. To create new issues in directly from TestLink, this user must have Create Issue permission in the YouTrack project, and the project ID must be specified in the configuration.
- Enter the baseURL of your YouTrack instance. Do not add a trailing slash to the URL.
- Optionally, you can specify the ID of a project to which issues created in TestLink are added. If you do not specify a projectID, you can only link existing issues to TestLink cases.
When done, click Save.
Open the Test Project Management section.
Select your TestLink project and edit it.
- Enable the issue tracker integration.
- Select the YouTrack integration as the issue tracker for your project.
Save the settings in your project.

Use the following template to configure the integration. You can also click the Show configuration example link next to the Type drop-down list to show a similar template in the configuration dialog.
