397505 - reduce number of required attributes in TestCaseRun.create hashmap by using reasonable defaults

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testopia :: API, enhancement)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.8.1.5) Gecko/20070718 Fedora/2.0.0.5-1.fc7 Firefox/2.0.0.5
Build Identifier: 1.3

according to the API docs, the following are required for TestCaseRun.create:
assignee, build_id, case_id, case_text_version, and run_id

I would suggest that there are quite reasonable default values for some of these:
assignee - default to manager from the run specified by run_id
build_id - default to build_id from run specified by run_id
case_text_version - default to latest text_version for the case specified by case_id

The better way would be to use TestCase.add_to_run which will now be available. This will set all these defaults. 

Using TestCaseRun.create still requires at least the case_id, run_id, build_id, and environment_id as these are key fields.
