Setting a Git comparison branch
When evaluating test results, teams often compare their results to the main
branch to make sure that they're not regressing.
Gentrace allows you to compare results against your main branch. To configure your main branch name (i.e. in case your team named it stable
or prod
), navigate to the pipeline settings and modify the name.
Once configured, you can directly compare test results for a run to the configured main branch.
Note that you need to configure your test run scripts
with special environmental variables ($GENTRACE_BRANCH
and $GENTRACE_COMMIT
) to
appropriately tag your test runs. Without this step, the comparison UI above will not show up.
