Buildkite
Configure Flaky Tests using BuildKite
Getting Started
You can use the Trunk Analytics CLI within your Buildkite workflows to upload your test results.
The Trunk Flaky Tests CLI currently only supports x86_64 and arm64 for both Linux and macOS. If you have another use case, please get in touch with support at https://slack.trunk.io. For the best results, you'll need to validate that your test invocation doesn't use cached test results and doesn't automatically retry failing tests.
Create workflow
Create a Buildkite workflow that runs the tests you want to monitor. In order for us to use the results, these tests must produce a test report in JUnit XML format.
Find Organization Slug and Token
Next you will need your Trunk organization slug and token. Navigate to app.trunk.io. Once logged in navigate to Settings -> Manage -> Organization. Copy your organization slug. You can find your Trunk token by navigating to Settings → Manage Organization → Organization API Token and clicking "View." Store your Trunk token in a secret named TRUNK_TOKEN
.
Setup Buildkite workflow
You can upload test results to Flaky Tests with the trunk-analytics-cli
by running it in a stage after your tests are complete. There are four different OS/arch builds of the CLI in the latest release. Pick the one you need for your testing platform and be sure to download the release on every CI run. Do not bake the CLI into a container or VM. This ensures your CI runs are always using the latest build.
Sample Buildkite workflow steps:
The trunk-analytics-cli
binary should be run from the repository root. If you need to run the binary from another location, you must provide the path to the repo root using the --repo-root
argument. The --junit-paths
argument accepts the xml file locations as both a list of globs or absolute paths.
If you're interested in better understanding this binary or want to contribute to it, you can find the open source repo here.
