Polarion MCP Server

importXUnitTestResults

Import XUnit test results into a Polarion Test Run, centralizing automated test outcomes. Preview the exact request with dry_run before applying changes.

Instructions

Imports XUnit test results. Effect: triggers a server-side action rather than a plain resource creation — whether repeating it is safe, a no-op, or rejected depends on the specific action; treat it as not guaranteed idempotent. Tip: set dry_run: true first to preview the exact request Polarion would receive, without changing anything. On tools with a typed output schema, this preview is returned as an error-flagged result since it is not real tool output -- read the text content regardless of that flag.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`dry_run`	No	If true, validates the request and returns the exact request that would be sent to Polarion — with the Authorization header redacted and any binary payload summarized by byte length — without actually sending it.
`projectId`	Yes	The Polarion project ID (its URL segment, e.g. `myproject`), case-sensitive. Required to scope the request to one project; call getProjects to list valid IDs.
`testRunId`	Yes	The Test Run's ID within its project.
`requestBody`	Yes	XUnit File.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare idempotentHint=false and readOnlyHint=false. The description adds valuable nuance: it explains the action is server-side, safety of repetition depends on the action, and that the dry-run preview is returned as an error-flagged result. This goes beyond annotations and helps the agent interpret responses correctly.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is moderately long but every sentence adds value: purpose, behavioral caveat, and a practical tip. It is front-loaded with the core action and then details. No wasted words, though it could be slightly tightened.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (4 params, output schema present), the description covers essential behavior: idempotency, dry-run preview, and error-flag handling. It doesn't detail the return format, but that's covered by the output schema. No critical gaps for correct invocation.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema fully documents all four parameters including dry_run, projectId, testRunId, and requestBody. The description reinforces the dry_run tip but adds no new semantic meaning beyond the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 'Imports XUnit test results' with a specific verb and resource. It further clarifies it's a server-side action, distinguishing it from plain resource creation, and the tool name itself differentiates from importExcelTestResults. No ambiguity about what it does.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Provides a strong usage tip: set dry_run: true to preview without side effects, which guides safe invocation. However, it does not explicitly contrast with alternative tools like importExcelTestResults or postTestRecords, though the XUnit/Excel distinction is implicit in the name.

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