Dependencies to PowerShell modules
AL-Go for GitHub relies on specific PowerShell modules, and the minimum versions required for these modules are tracked in Packages.json file. Should the installed modules on the GitHub runner not meet these minimum requirements, the necessary modules will be installed as needed.
Support managed identities and federated credentials
All authentication context secrets now supports managed identities and federated credentials. See more here. Furthermore, you can now use https://aka.ms/algosecrets#authcontext to learn more about the formatting of that secret.
Business Central Performance Toolkit Test Result Viewer
In the summary after a Test Run, you now also have the result of performance tests.
New Settings
deployTo<environmentName>: is not really new, but has a new property:
Scope = specifies the scope of the deployment: Dev, PTE. If not specified, AL-Go for GitHub will always use the Dev Scope for AppSource Apps, but also for PTEs when deploying to sandbox environments when impersonation (refreshtoken) is used for authentication.
\ = custom properties are now supported and will be transferred to a custom deployment script in the hashtable.
bcptThresholds is a JSON object with properties for the default thresholds for the Business Central Performance Toolkit
DurationWarning - a warning is issued if the duration of a bcpt test degrades more than this percentage (default 10)
DurationError - an error is issued if the duration of a bcpt test degrades more than this percentage (default 25)
NumberOfSqlStmtsWarning - a warning is issued if the number of SQL statements from a bcpt test increases more than this percentage (default 5)
NumberOfSqlStmtsError - an error is issued if the number of SQL statements from a bcpt test increases more than this percentage (default 10)
[!NOTE]
Duration thresholds are subject to varying results depending on the performance of the agent running the tests. Number of SQL statements executed by a test is often the most reliable indicator of performance degredation.
