Testuff with Mantis

Mantis website

How does Testuff integrate with Mantis?

Although Testuff is a hosted service it can automatically send every reported defect to your Mantis account. You can run your manual tests with Testuff and continue to use Mantis for bug tracking.

The integration is done by the desktop client. Therefore, it should work also if you host Mantis on an internal server. Our server doesn't need to access your bug tracker server and you don't need to change anything in your security or firewall configuration to make it work.

How do I configure Mantis with Testuff?

Mantis configuration Mantis user configuration
  1. In Testuff, go to Settings > Bug Tracker.
  2. Choose Mantis from the bug trackers combo box.
  3. Fill in the Mantis server address in the URL field. This should be the Mantis URL, omitting any filenames that may appear after the last slash.
  4. Set the Default Project. Defects exported from Testuff projects that do not have a custom Mantis project will be exported using this project name.
  5. Click the Set my Mantis user link and input your Mantis username and password. Defects opened by you in Testuff will be submitted to Mantis using these credentials.
  6. You may click the Create a sample bug report link to make sure Testuff can create bug reports in Mantis. If all goes well the new bug report should be displayed.
  7. Don't forget to click OK to save the settings.

Can I associate a custom Mantis project to a Testuff project?

Yep. If you wish to export defects from a certain Testuff project to a certain Mantis project, follow the instructions below. Projects that do not have a custom Mantis project set to them will use the default one from the general settings.

  1. Go to the home screen via the house icon at the top left.
  2. Click the Edit link next to the relevant Testuff project.
  3. Under Bug tracker setting fill in the Mantis project for this Testuff project.
  4. Click OK to save the settings.

How do I export defects to a sub-project?

Simply use the name of the sub-project. Please note that the name must be unique. Otherwise Testuff will pick only the first project/sub-project it finds.
