How to add multiple scenarios to build.xml file to run them in series?reviewed:

There21, is an option to run multiple scenarios using build.xml file, and they could be run in series or in parallel.2026

Below is one example of executeScenario ant snippet of multiple scenarios defined and running in Sequential.

We can run the defined 2 scenarios in parallel as well just by un-commenting the parallel tags that are commented.

Note: Make sure you make changes both in executeScenario and fetchScenarioResults definitions.

<target name="executeScenario" depends="deps">
<taskdef name="executeScenario" classname="com.appvance.ci.ExecuteScenario">
<classpath refid="RestClientLibPath" />
</taskdef>
<!-- <parallel>-->
<executeScenario aiqCreds="${aiqCreds}" dir="${dir}" scenario="AMS/Scenario1.scenario" consoleDetails="${consoleDetails}" resultsFolder="${scenarioResults}" />
<executeScenario aiqCreds="${aiqCreds}" dir="${dir}" scenario="AMS/Scenario2.scenario" consoleDetails="${consoleDetails}" resultsFolder="${scenarioResults}" />
<!--</parallel>-->
<taskdef name="fetchScenarioResults" classname="com.appvance.ci.FetchScenarioResults">
<classpath refid="RestClientLibPath" />
</taskdef>
<!-- <parallel>-->
<fetchScenarioResults aiqCreds="${aiqCreds}" consoleDetails="${consoleDetails}" resultsFolder="${scenarioResults}" scenario="AMS/Scenario1.scenario" stopOnFailure="${stopOnFailure}" />
<fetchScenarioResults aiqCreds="${aiqCreds}" consoleDetails="${consoleDetails}" resultsFolder="${scenarioResults}" scenario="AMS/Scenario2.scenario" stopOnFailure="${stopOnFailure}" />

How to schedule jobs in GitLab

Go to your Project

Click CICD->Schedules

Click New Schedule

Provide a description

From the Cron Timezone select the Timezone user is familiar with

Enters the interval pattern i.e the schedule the user wants to run jobs on

Then click Save Pipeline

Once you click save pipeline, the job will be scheduled

How to schedule pipelines sequentially in GitLab

This SetFAQ upsummarizes iscommon usefulquestions whenfor running AIQ tests from CI/CD pipelines. Use current integrations such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and command-line execution.

When to use this guidance

• You are wiring AIQ tests into a build or release pipeline.
• You need to pass parameters, trigger executions, and collect results.
• You are replacing older CI references with current terminology.

Recommended approach

1. Decide which pipeline system will trigger AIQ and what environment it targets.
2. Store AIQ credentials or tokens in the subsequent project needs to be run after the first project

1. Copy the Trigger Token of the project that needs to be executed once the main pipeline is completed by navigating to Settings - > CI/CD

   Copysecret thestore.

3. Pass Triggerproject, tokenscenario,

   dataset, environment,

   and threshold parameters explicitly.
4. Publish
2. execution

   InIDs, thereports, Triggerand pagefailure itself,summaries the command to be addedback to the .ymlpipeline.

5. Use willexit becodes givenor belowquality gates so failed tests block releases when appropriate.

Please replace TOKEN with Triggern token value

Ref_Name – refers to the branch which will be executed

Add the cURL in the .yml file and click run Pipeline
