Trigger automated test cases after executing release pipeline #213

Closed dadiaz18 closed 2 years ago

dadiaz18 commented 2 years ago

I have two repositories (See the structure below)

Organization A

 Project A 
      Repo A  (Front End Repository with React)
 Project B 
      Repo B  (Automated Test Cases)

After the creation of a new release in the QA environment using release-pipeline for Project A - Repo A, I need to trigger automated test cases (Project B - Repo B), both in the same organization within Azure DevOps. Is it possible to use this extension for this purpose?

Do I need to have something more like an API to use this extension? Thanks!

Hi @dadiaz18

I need to trigger automated test cases (Project B - Repo B)

If by triggering test cases you mean a pipeline in Project B, yes you can do that. You cannot trigger releases though.

Check the Basic Configuration for the explanation how this works.

Also there are some things to be aware of when you are triggering something that is in a different repo/team project. Please see Important Configuration Options when Triggered Build is not located on the VSTS/ADO/TFS Instance or Team Project

Hi @dadiaz18

Did you manage to trigger your build or do you need some support?

dadiaz18 commented 2 years ago

Hi, huserben, for the moment I suspended this task because I have other priorities, I will resume this in a couple of weeks I think thanks for asking.

huserben commented 2 years ago

Ok thanks for the reply.

I'll close this issue then. In case the documentation/above links don't help you can reopen the issue.

Ok Thanks huserben!
