Integration Test Failures

There are two (2) ways to receive notifications of integration test failures. One is in MilMove CircleCI dashboard and the other is from the GitHub pull request page.

CircleCI​

You will see a Failed notification on the dashboard page. Click on the Failed notification/label to see what step in the CI/CD has failed.

CircleCI dashboard failed

After you click on the Failed notification/label, you will be presented with a list of actions that were taken or are still in progress for the commit. Click on the failed indicator to see the details of what is failing.

These details will show the terminal output that you would see if the tests were running locally.

Once you see these logs, you are able to look at the error messages and determine next steps to fix the failed test(s).

Re-run​

Pushing a new commit to your branch will automatically kick off CI/CD pipeline. However, if there are no changes and you would like to re-run the tests you can click on Rerun in the upper right-hand corner of the CircleCI page.

CircleCI rerun

Unless you know you want to re-run the entire pipeline select Rerun > Rerun Workflow from Failed is good enough. This option only re-runs the failed tests.

GitHub pull request​

From the MilMove GitHub pull request page. You can see a list of pull requests. There is a red x or a green checkmark indicator to notify if the pull request is passing checking or if there is a failing check that needs attention.

GitHub pull requests failed checks

Clicking on the pull request or if you are already on the pull request page, you can see the list of checks for the pull request/branch being run toward the bottom of the page. Similar to the pull reqest list view previously mentioned, there are red x or a green checkmark indicators to notify the user if the pull request is passing the checks or if there are failing checks needing attention.
