create_test_execution

Record test execution results into a TestLink test plan by selecting a status (pass/fail/blocked), specifying build, and optionally linking bug IDs or adding notes.

Instructions

Report a test case execution result against a build within a test plan (tl.reportTCResult).

Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure, but it only states the action without mentioning side effects like appending vs overwriting results, permission requirements, or impact on existing data. This is a significant gap for a mutation tool.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, front-loaded sentence that efficiently states the tool's purpose without unnecessary words. It is appropriately sized for the minimal information it conveys.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness1/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The tool is complex (13 parameters, no annotations, no output schema), yet the description provides almost no additional context beyond the basic purpose. It does not explain return values, how to specify test case identifiers, or what reporting against a build entails, making it inadequate for correct invocation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters1/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The description does not add meaning to any of the 13 parameters. With schema description coverage at only 38%, the description fails to compensate by clarifying key parameters such as testCaseId, buildId, or the overwrite behavior, leaving most parameters semantically opaque.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool reports a test case execution result against a build within a test plan, using a specific verb and resource. It also includes the underlying API method name, distinguishing it from sibling read/update operations.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention exclusions or related tools such as read_test_execution, leaving usage context entirely to the agent's inference.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
