Jenkins Release Notes

July 2019 Updates

Authentication changes

  • In earlier versions of Jenkins, only the Test.Manager or Test.Lead user is able to authenticate the Jenkins Plugin, but going forward, any user with any role permission able to authenticate Jenkins with latest version of Zephyr Enterprise Test Management plugin.

Vulnerability issue updates

  • When adding the Zephyr Enterprise Test Management plugin, users would get a vulnerability and missing permission check which causes the SSRF warning in the manage Jenkins page, but with latest version of Zephyr Enterprise Test Management plugin, users won't receive the vulnerability and missing permission check causing the SSRF warning.

Automated testcases are unmarked as unexecuted when an automation runs again for Jenkins

  • In previous versions when rerunning a job in Jenkins, if the results file included only a subset of the test cases, then the test cases that are not included would be marked as "Unexecuted". This would happen even when reusing the same Test Cycle/Phase. Going forward, when users are rerunning the same job in Jenkins, if the results file includes only a subset of the test cases, then the test cases that are not included will not be added in planning/execution for same Test Cycle/Phase.
  • When reusing the same Test Cycle/Phase for the Jenkins job, only the testcases created through Jenkins will be added to same Test Cycle/Phase.
