Setup distribution dir

[lczub]

Hello Olivier,

could you please check (and hopefully merge) my suggestion for an enhancement of
TestLink-API-Client-client with

• setup.py and distribution structure
• setting connection parameters via command line arguments
• setting connection parameters via environment variables
• read.md
• central version.py info (currently set to 0.4.0-beta)
• Method _callServer() with basic error handling
• initial unittests
• some minor code cleanups

Code also integrates changes and adds from g4l4drim and pade.

• Exception: renaming TestlinkAPIClient <-> TestLinkAPIClient

I also prepare every file with a suggestion for a copyright and licence
statement. The licence statement is currently empty.
This has do be filled, when our separate discussion with James finds a
solution.

Hello Olivier,
the branch setup_distribution-dir has been updated and includes with the commits 2b1a26c and 67a7a1b now the Apache Licence 2.0 declaration and is marked with the tag v0.4.0-RC1.

tl = TestlinkAPIGeneric(url,devkey)

print(test_case_dic)

print("*******************************************************************************************************")
test_plan_dic = tl.getTestPlanByName(testProjectName,testPlanName)
print(test_plan_dic)

print("*******************************************************************************************************")

Hello lkmdevTestVI,

a) don't use closed issues for new support questions
b) new Questions, Enhancements, Issues are welcome under https://github.com/lczub/TestLink-API-Python-client/issues
c) for your problem, maybe a look into the examples could help you

• https://github.com/lczub/TestLink-API-Python-client/blob/master/example/TestLinkExampleGenericApi.py
• https://github.com/lczub/TestLink-API-Python-client/blob/master/example/TestLinkExample.py

d) maybe the class TestlinkAPIClient would be a better solution for you than TestlinkAPIGeneric

Greetings Luiko
