Add and edit build configurations

Add and edit build configurations from the Builds page in the configuration area.

Tip: Add and edit build configurations using the ALI Configuration wizard (recommended), or manually as described below.

In the wizard Select Build Configuration (Job) screen, select Create New or Update Existing, depending on what you need to do.

  1. Add and edit build configurations manually. Do one of the following:

    Add a build configuration

    Select a build server in the grid, and click Add Build Configuration.

    Select an available build configuration from the list, and click Save. The Build Configuration Details page opens.

    Note: The list contains only configurations for Hudson/Jenkins jobs with ALI integration enabled.
    Edit a build configuration

    Expand a build server, and click a build configuration. The Build Configuration Details page opens.

  2. Set the following build configuration properties:

    Build Tracked [on/off]

    If the build configuration is tracked, new builds from the build system are loaded into Agile Manager.

    Turn off this setting if the build configuration is obsolete, or is broken.
    Source of Metrics [on/off] The build configuration marked as the source of metrics is used to compute the statistics displayed for the associated release.
    Name/Description The name and description of the build configuration.
    Release

    The release with which the build configuration is associated.

    Note: This field is required.
    Application Select the application with which the build configuration is associated.
    Build Category Select the build category to which the build configuration belongs.
    Source Code Resources The source code repository associated with the build configuration on the build server.
