QTM4J: Get Linked Requirements
qtm4j_get_linked_requirementsRetrieve Jira requirements linked to any QTM4J test case by providing its key. Returns a paginated list with status, priority, and issue type.
Instructions
Retrieve the Jira requirements linked to a specific test case in QTM4J. Test case key is resolved to internal ID automatically.
Toolset: Test Cases
Parameters:
key (string) required: Test case key in '{PROJECT_KEY}-TC-{number}' format (e.g., 'SCRUM-TC-145'). Required.
versionNo (number): Test case version number to retrieve linked requirements for. Defaults to the latest version.
maxResults (number): Maximum results per page (1-100). Default: 50.
startAt (number): Zero-indexed offset for pagination. Default: 0.
sort (string): Sort pattern in 'field:asc|desc' format. Default: 'key:desc'.
Output Description: Paginated list with total, startAt, maxResults, and data array of linked requirement objects (id, key, summary, status, priority, issueType).
Use Cases: 1. Check which Jira stories or bugs a test case covers 2. Audit requirement traceability for a test case 3. Retrieve requirement keys to use in other operations 4. Verify that the correct requirements are linked to a test case before a release
Examples:
Get all requirements linked to a test case
{
"key": "SCRUM-TC-145"
}Expected Output: Paginated list of linked requirements with Jira metadata
Get requirements for a specific version
{
"key": "SCRUM-TC-85",
"versionNo": 2,
"maxResults": 20
}Expected Output: Requirements linked to version 2 of the test case
Hints: 1. PREREQUISITE: set_project_context must be called before this tool. NEVER auto-select a project. 2. KEY FORMAT: '{PROJECT_KEY}-TC-{number}' — e.g. 'SCRUM-TC-145'. 3. versionNo defaults to the latest version. Use search_test_cases to find available versions. 4. Paginate using startAt — increment by maxResults until startAt >= total.
