I need to generate a report from the dashboard view of Quality Center to get all the blocking defects in my test sets. Meaning, I want to filter the list of defects that are linked to test instances marked with the status 'blocked.

Could you please help me in generating such custom report?

Thanks, Karim.

Try this code :

SELECT
C.CY_CYCLE 'TestSet Name',/*Test Set.Name*/
T.TS_NAME 'Test Name',
T.TS_EXEC_STATUS 'Status',
TC.TC_TEST_INSTANCE 'Test Instance',
L.LN_BUG_ID 'defect id'

FROM TEST T, TESTCYCL TC, LINK L , CYCLE C

WHERE
       T.TS_TEST_ID = TC.TC_TEST_ID -- Condition joining TEST (testcases) and TESTCYCL (Test instances) table
       AND C.CY_CYCLE_ID = TC.TC_CYCLE_ID /*-- Condition joining TEST (testcases) and TESTCYCL (Test instances) table */
       AND L.LN_ENTITY_TYPE = 'TESTCYCL' -- This condition makes sure that defects linked to test instaces only need to retrieved
       AND TC.TC_TESTCYCL_ID = L.LN_ENTITY_ID -- Condition to join LINK and TESTCYCL table

To list out the defects and the corresponding test cases that blocked, its very easy to generate using Excel query feature in Quality center. The query has to join test instance, tests and link table to retrieve the details. The query looks like this

SELECT T.TS_NAME, TC.TC_TEST_INSTANCE, LN_BUG_ID
  FROM TEST T, TESTCYCL TC, LINK L
 WHERE     T.TS_TEST_ID = TC.TC_TEST_ID -- Condition joining TEST (testcases) and TESTCYCL (Test instances) table
       AND L.LN_ENTITY_TYPE = 'TESTCYCL' -- This condition makes sure that defects linked to test instaces only need to retrieved
       AND TC.TC_TESTCYCL_ID = L.LN_ENTITY_ID -- Condition to join LINK and TESTCYCL table
       AND TC.TC_STATUS = 'BLOCKED'
