Overview
With the synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests
step, you can run Synthetic tests during your Bitrise CI, ensuring that all your teams using Bitrise can benefit from Synthetic tests at every stage of the software lifecycle. This step uses the Datadog CI Synthetics command.
Setup
This step is not available on the official Bitrise Step Library.
To get started:
- Add the following git URL to your workflow. See the official Bitrise documentation on how to do that though the Bitrise app. You can also configure it locally by referencing the git URL in your
bitrise.yml
file.
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
- Add your API and application keys to your secrets in Bitrise.
- Configure your step inputs. You can also configure them in your
bitrise.yml
file. The only required inputs are the two secrets you configured earlier. For a comprehensive list of inputs, see the Inputs section.
How to use this step locally
You can run this step directly using the Bitrise CLI.
To run this step locally:
- Open your terminal or command line.
git clone
the Bitrise repository.cd
into the directory of the step (the one you just git clone
d).- Create a
.bitrise.secrets.yml
file in the same directory of bitrise.yml
. The .bitrise.secrets.yml
file is a Git-ignored file, so you can store your secrets in it. - Check the
bitrise.yml
file for any secret you should set in .bitrise.secrets.yml
. - Once you have the required secret parameters in your
.bitrise.secrets.yml
file, run this step with the Bitrise CLI: bitrise run test
.
An example .bitrise.secrets.yml
file:
envs:
- A_SECRET_PARAM_ONE: the value for secret one
- A_SECRET_PARAM_TWO: the value for secret two
Simple usage
Example using public IDs
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:
- api_key: <DATADOG_API_KEY>
- app_key: <DATADOG_APP_KEY>
- public_ids: 'abc-d3f-ghi, jkl-mn0-pqr'
Example task using existing synthetics.json
files
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:
- api_key: <DATADOG_API_KEY>
- app_key: <DATADOG_APP_KEY>
- files: 'e2e-tests/*.synthetics.json'
For an example test file, see this test.synthetics.json
file.
Complex usage
Example task using the testSearchQuery
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:
- api_key: <DATADOG_API_KEY>
- app_key: <DATADOG_APP_KEY>
- test_search_query: 'tag:e2e-tests'
Example task using the testSearchQuery
and variable overrides
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:
- api_key: <DATADOG_API_KEY>
- app_key: <DATADOG_APP_KEY>
- test_search_query: 'tag:e2e-tests'
- variables: |
START_URL=https://staging.website.com
PASSWORD=$STAGING_PASSWORD
Example task using a global configuration override with configPath
This task overrides the path to the global datadog-ci.config.json
file.
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:
- api_key: <DATADOG_API_KEY>
- app_key: <DATADOG_APP_KEY>
- config_path: './synthetics-config.json'
For an example configuration file, see the global.config.json
file.
Example including all possible configurations
For reference, this is an example of a complete configuration:
- git::https://github.com/DataDog/synthetics-test-automation-bitrise-step-run-tests.git@1.7.0:
inputs:

- batch_timeout: 4200000

- site: 'datadoghq.com'
- subdomain: 'myorg'
- test_search_query: 'tag:e2e-tests'

Name | Requirement | Description |
---|
apiKey | required | Your Datadog API key. This key is created by your Datadog organization and will be accessed as an environment variable. |
appKey | required | Your Datadog application key. This key is created by your Datadog organization and will be accessed as an environment variable. |
batchTimeout | optional | The duration (in milliseconds) after which the batch fails as timed out. The default is 30 minutes. |
