3. User guide
3.1. Task parameters (general)
Parse-Only Mode | If turned on the plugin won't run test executables but parse already created test output files. Default value is off. |
Subdirectory | By default the working directory (where Ant Style Pattern is applied) is a plan directory. However it can be changed to any other relative directory. For example you can set it to a build output directory. Examples: bin/release |
3.2. Task parameters (normal mode)
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Test Executables | This is a comma separated list of test executables. You can use Ant Style Pattern to define them. The task fails if there is no test executables or any of them is not producing a valid GoogleTest output. Note: if a test doesn't produce any output during 10 minutes it is treated as hanging and will be terminated.Examples: *test*.exe , **/test.exe,mytest.exe |
Environment Variables | There you can specify any extra environment variables you want to pass to your tests. Use the format <name>=<value> and separate name-value pairs with spaces.Examples: myvar1="my value" myvar2=value2 |
3.3. Task parameters (parse-only mode)
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Test Output Files | This is a comma separated list of test output files. You can use Ant Style Pattern to define them. To get proper xml files use the following command line options during tests execution: --gtest_output=xml:./ .Examples: *test*.xml , **/test.xml,mytest.xml |
Pick Outdated Files | If turned on the plugin will process all matched files. Otherwise only files changed after the build start time will be processed. Default value is off. |
3.4. Task parameters (advanced)
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Use task name to avoid name collisions | Task name will be appended to a test suite name (to fulfill Bamboo requirement for unique names). |
Use file name to avoid name collisions | File name will be appended to a test suite name (to fulfill Bamboo requirement for unique names). |
Timeout | Test execution timeout, in minutes. Default value is 10. |
