Bring Your Own Test

Learn how to integrate test tools to Kyndryl Modern Operations – DevOps Intelligence
As a DevOps practitioner, you may find it useful to have a centralized solution that enables you to view all your test results from various testing tools in your DevOps pipeline. This is where Test services come in - as a centralized service in DevOps Intelligence, it displays data from tools like Jenkins, Sonarqube, and more.
DevOps Intelligence Test is designed to support various testing tools and formats, giving you the flexibility to bring in tests from multiple engines. You can see an example of how DevOps Intelligence Test looks when data is populated in the image below.
It's worth noting that Test currently supports several popular testing tools, including Junit, Xunit, Cobertura, Mocha, Karmamocha, Jmeter, and LCOV. Also, if you work with different testing engines, rest assured that Test has got you covered by enabling private test tools to be integrated so that your test results will be accurately displayed in the DevOps Intelligence Test dashboard.

Bring Data into DevOps Intelligence

To bring your own Deploy tools complete the following steps:
  1. Go to the DevOps Intelligence Tools Configuration page and navigate to the Tokens tab.
  2. Click on Create Token and give a unique Token name.
  3. Select Token Type as Develop, then click on the Create button.
  4. A new entry will be added to the table. In the table entry.
  5. Click on the vertical ellipsis icon on the respective row and select the view/regenerate token option.
  6. Copy that token by clicking copy icon in the token field.
To Post Data to the APIs mentioned below, Add the service Token (see: Create Service Token) to the
Authorization
header of the request. See the cURL Example for reference

Format

Step 1: TOKEN {the-service-token-from-step1}
