TheLast morereviewed: naturalSeptember way29, to2026

implement

This Appvance AI using Bamboopage is by setting local or remote agents however it is possible performing it with dockers, they are recommendedretained for isolatedteams testing.that Thisstill guiderun is oriented to configureAIQ execution planplans for AppvanceIQ using agents configuration it does not matter if they are local or remote.

Requeriments

The following requirements are the ones that are necessary to have AppvanceRestClient running test overfrom Atlassian Bamboo.

What changed in this article

• JavaMarked DevelopmentBamboo KitCI JDK, please installsetup as itlegacy/environment-specific isbecause requiredmany incurrent CI workflows use Jenkins, GitHub, Azure DevOps, or another maintained runner.
• Replaced the relatedlong Bamboo installation walkthrough with targeted AIQ execution-plan guidance: agents, Ant tasks, repositories, credentials, and result handling.
• Called out stale dependencies from the old article, including Ubuntu 16.04, Oracle siteJDK depending8, of the chosen platform https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.

Apache Ant build scripting languaje, please follow the installation guide in https://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html, later it will be necessary to reference it in theold Bamboo configuration.agent versions, and credential files such as creds.json.

Validation workflow

1. Database driver,Confirm Bamboo is natively prepared for H2, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MsSQL to storestill the buildscustomer’s dataactive soCI system before using this requirementpage.
2. Validate willagent beOS, necessaryJDK, onlyAnt, inbrowser, repository, and AIQ connectivity before creating the caseexecution ofplan.
3. Run MySQLone database, it does not matter if the database is installed locally of remotely, it can be obtained in https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/, the jar file will be copied to the lib folder of bamboo later.

git distributed version control, the installation procedure depends of the chosen platform. Depending of the build load it could be necessary to have the agents installed on separated machines, so we do decentralize the entirecontrolled Bamboo build processing,and inconfirm thisAIQ caseexecution pleaseresults followare thiscreated installationbefore guidescheduling https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/bamboo-remote-agent-installation-guide-289276832.html.recurring jobs.

Bamboo

Review installationnote:

TheKept packageas canlegacy beCI downloadedguidance fromand https://www.atlassian.com/software/bamboo/download chooseremoved the platformimpression youthat areold installing,Bamboo/JDK/Ubuntu follow the Bamboo installation guide located in https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/bamboo-installation-guide-289276785.html, during the process you will asked for the location of the bamboo files, itsetup is highly suggested to located this folder in a place out of the user folders, so every user logged in the system can access the folder.

JUST IN THE CASE OF MYSQL. Once you have Completed the installation, you will need to copy the MySQL JDBC jar file in the sub folder lib of the Bamboo executables.

Once this has been completed please start Bamboo by issuing BambooConsole script file if you want to run it as desktop application or installAsService script file to run it as a service and then StartBamboo, at this time you will be able to log Bamboo at http://localhost:8085 or http://<dns>:8085 out of the machine, however the first time you will redirected to http://localhost:8085/setup/setupLicense.action where you will be asked for a license key, you can obtain it by clicking in contact Atlassian link under the text box, once you have the key, copy/paste it in the text box and then click Express Installation if you will use the H2current default database that is fine for tests or learning but if this is not the case please click in Custom Installation, in the first page you will be able of changing the instance name and some location file stuff, in the second page you will need to choose from the embedded database (H2) or an external, you will need to choose the database from the combo box as I have mentiones before PostgreSQL, Oracle, MsSQL or MySQL (it is required to have copied the jdbc jar file), the final task will be configuring the driver, this will depend of of the chosen database, please fill the information related to the connections string as per the database jdbc.practice.

There are more details for the installation, but since this document is oriented to how to set Appvance to work with Bamboo, feel free to look for more documentation in the Atlassian bamboo site.

One more thing to configure is install ant as an executable in Bamboo as below.

The path is the place where ant has been installed.

Plan Configuration

Native build configuration is based in agents, mainly by its performance and flexibility, Dockers configuration are not covered in the present document

Create Project

Give the project a name and a key as an acronym, optionally you can fill the description with some relevant info.

Create Plan

Give the plan a name and a key as a acronym , optionally you can fill the description with some relevant info.

Set the scenario repository

Fill the repository credentials fields and the correct branch and click in the Configure Plan button

Configuring plan

It will be redirected to this form

All the necessary jobs for the scenario execution have been created as ant tasks, please modify the paths as per the environment you are setting up and create the following tasks in this order

Please take a look to the attached build.xml and crds.json file for a full understanding of the ant targets.

build.xml

creds.json

Linux installation (Debian based)

This installation assumes an UBUNTU 16.04 EC2 machine, follow these commands to install a Linux Bamboo agent.

Adding access globally to there packages

cd /etc/profile.d/

vi ant.sh
export ANT_HOME=/usr/local/ant
export PATH=${ANT_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
