Run-in-Cloud - Build Step(s) for Android and iOS

To get started, you can open existing Jenkins job or create a new one. From the Job Configuration -> Build select Run tests in Bitbar Cloud.

Now you can select your target project (must exist in Bitbar Cloud) and enter the name for your test run. The next ones are the Application and Test where you specify the files that will be uploaded in Bitbar Cloud. If you need to further customize project settings click the "Edit project on Bitbar Cloud website" button and it will open Bitbar Cloud webpage with access to configure your project details.

API CALL

Jenkins is polling Bitbar Cloud for the results. Test results are fetched from Bitbar Cloud to Jenkins workspace after all your tests are finished.

HOOK URL

Bitbar Cloud sends post message to the specified URL when test run is finished. Bitbar Run-in-Cloud Plugin listens these messages in default location and then downloads results when post message arrives. User can change the URL in the following section:

POST message body: testRunId=%s&projectId=%s&status=FINISHED

Note! This requires your HOOK URL is reachable from Internet e.g. Jenkins instance can be reached from Bitbar Cloud.

In addition to hook URL, you can set up specific folder where results and data will be stored, timeout for finalization message (timeout for results) as well as if you want to include screenshots and other graphical data from your test runs.
