GoCD Integration With HyperExecute

GoCD, short for "Go Continuous Delivery," is an open-source continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) server that helps automate and streamline the software development and release process. It is designed to facilitate the efficient and reliable delivery of software from development to production.

This document will show you how to integrate GoCD with HyperExecute to greatly shorten your test cycles.

How to Integrate with HyperExecute​

Pre-requisite:​

  • Download the GoCD Server and Agent and unzip the folder.

You can use your own project to configure and test it. For demo purposes, we are using the sample repository.

Sample repo

Download or Clone the code sample from the LambdaTest GitHub repository to run the tests on the HyperExecute.

Part 4: Job and Tasks​

  • Enter the Job Name.

  • Enter the below mentioned script in the space provided.

curl -O https://downloads.lambdatest.com/hyperexecute/darwin/hyperexecute
chmod +x hyperexecute
./hyperexecute --user <your_username> --key <your_access_key> --config <your_yaml_file_name>

Since my default agent is mac I am using darwin CLI in the cURL command. Kindly change it according to your system default agent.

  • Mac -> darwin
  • Linux -> linux
  • Windows-> windows
  • Click on Save + Run This Pipeline button.
