How to integrate TestRail with Jenkins?

Question

I am trying to integrate TestRail with Jenkins where I want to run some test cases from test rail which calls the test cases in jenkins, and then writes the result back to TestRail itself, or something similar to this.

I know there is an API for this, but so far I am not able to figure out how to go ahead with this API.

Any suggestions would be of great help.

Answer 1

There is a Jenkins plugin maintained by the Jenkins team at GitHub:

Integrate test results from Jenkins into TestRail. Upload your junit test results to TestRail after every run.

The plugin only allows to populate TestRail with the test results, but maybe you can start from there.
