It invokes Xray's Export Cucumber Tests REST API endpoint (see more information here).

Configuration

Some fields need to be configured in order to export the Cucumber Tests. As input, you can either specify issue keys (see the endpoint documention documentation here) or the ID of the saved filter in Jira.

...

This build step will import existing cucumber Tests from existing Cucumber feature files into Xray issues. This Task will import from .feature files and also from .zip files.

Jira instanceThe Jira instance where Xray is running.
CredentialsIf the above Jira Instance does not have any credential configured, you must define an User scoped credential here
Project KeyThis is the project where the Tests and Pre-Conditions will be created/updated.
Cucumber feature files directoryThis is the directory containing your feature files. All the files in this directory and sub directories will be imported. Supports both relative and absolute paths.
Modified in the last hoursBy entering an integer n here, only files that where modified in the last n hours will be imported.

The app provides easy access to Xray's Import Execution Results REST API endpoints (see more information here). Therefore, it mimics the endpoints input parameters.

Since version 2.2.0, the Xray plugin will now set some build environment variables according to the operation result after each of the Xray Steps mentioned above.


Build Enviroment Environment Variable NameMeaning and Value

XRAY_IS_REQUEST_SUCCESSFUL

Contains the string 'true' if all requests made by the step were successful, or 'false' otherwise.

XRAY_ISSUES_MODIFIED

All Issue keys that were modified and/or created by the step, separated by ';' with no duplicated entries (E.g. 'CALC-100;CALC-101;CALC-102').

XRAY_RAW_RESPONSE

The unprocessed JSON response of all requests made by the step, separated by ';'.

XRAY_TEST_EXECS

All Test Execution Issue keys that were modified and/or created by the step, separated by ';' with no duplicated entries (E.g. 'CALC-200;CALC-201;CALC-202').

Please note that in same cases, it will be not possible to determine the issue type of the Issue key returned in the request response and in that case, the key it will only be added to the XRAY_ISSUES_MODIFIED variable.

XRAY_TEST

All Test Issue keys that were modified and/or created by the step, separated by ';' with no duplicated entries (E.g. 'CALC-300;CALC-301;CALC-302').

Please note that in same cases, it will be not possible to determine the issue type of the Issue key returned in the request response and in that case, the key it will only be added to the XRAY_ISSUES_MODIFIED variable.

Examples

Cucumber

In a typical Cucumber Workflow, after having created a Cucumber project and the Cucumber tests specified in Jira, you may want to have a project that exports the features from Jira, executes the automated tests on a CI environment and then imports back its results.
