Unable to update a testrun state to completed via API - api

Question

We have been using curl with the VSTS / Azure API v5.1 to create testruns, post test results and set testruns with a state of 'completed' for a good while.
For the past few weeks, our requests to patch the testrun state to 'completed' from 'inProgress' are not committed.
(Yet we can use the same request to update other testrun attributes like the value for 'comment')
Documentation still mentions acceptable values to supply for state:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/test/runs/update?view=azure-devops-rest-5.1#updating-started-date
Are you able to complete your testruns via the API? Thanks
curl -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Basic {token}" --request PATCH -d "{'state':'Completed','build':{'id': 0},'comment':'an updated comment'}" https://dev.azure.com/etc/etc/_apis/test/runs/{testrunID}?api-version=5.1

Answer 1

I can update the state to Completedsuccessfully via REST API:
PATCH https://dev.azure.com/{organizaion}/{project}/_apis/test/runs/{runid}?api-version=5.1
Request Body:
{
"state": "Completed"
}
But it only updated the test run state, if the result is not Passed, then there will be a triangular exclamation mark near the Completed state.
So, to completely update the state we have to update the test result outcome to Passed :
PATCH https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/test/runs/{runid}/Results?api-version=5.1
Request body:
[
{
"id": 100000,
"outcome": "Passed"
}
]

Answer 2

I test with the following script in the PowerShell task of azure devops and can successfully modify the any state of the testrun to Completed .
$connectionToken="your token"
$base64AuthInfo= [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(":$($connectionToken)"))
curl.exe -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Basic $base64AuthInfo" --request PATCH -d "{'state':'Completed','comment':'an updated comment'}" https://dev.azure.com/{org}/{pro}/_apis/test/runs/{runId}?api-version=5.1

Answer 3

Thank you all for your help. I can confirm that our curl command run in CMD is now successfully setting the testrun state to 'completed'. As mentioned earlier, it was able to change other aspects of the testrun record, (eg comment) but for the last few weeks did not affect the state. Now the state is updating too. This would suggest to me the issue probably wasn't our side, as our curl api request hasn't changed. Glad to see it's resolved though.
