Now how does the git-lab project look and what are the files that need to be changed?
Above is the screenshot of the project that was configured in Jenkins.
Build.xml File: Build.xml file and other files and the folder structure can be downloaded from here.
creds.json File:
{
"controller": {
"instances": ["i-0a8ede7xxxxx"],
"ec2Creds": "ec2.creds",
"timeOut": 60,
"username": "AIQUSERNAME",
"password": "AIQPASSWORD",
"workFolder": "."
}
}
Basically has details about the controller machine and the credentials. Above can be used when we have the EC2 setup.
When we are running AIQ local builds, instances in the 2nd line could be replaced with "URL" and the full URL of the AIQ controller could be provided.
ec2.creds will have details of the Ec2 account: This can be used when we are using AIQ Controller on the EC2 machine and when your tests are run in the AWS cloud.
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOURAWSACCESSKEY
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOURAWSSECRETKEY
REGION:us-west-2.ec2.amazonaws.com
Look for Build Triggers and look for Invoke Ant.
