Viewing a build result

The instructions on this page describe how to view the build results for a plan.

Every completed build has a build result:

  • Successful — the code compiled, with or without errors, and all tests completed successfully.
  • Failed — either the code did not compile, or at least one test failed.
  • Incomplete — the build was not completed, e.g. it may have been stopped manually.

Additionally,

  • if the build result is Failed, and the previous build result was Successful, the build is labeled as Broken.
  • if the build result is Successful, and the previous build result was Failed, the build is labeled as Fixed.

Viewing the most recent build result for a plan

To view the most recent job build result of a plan:

  1. From the top navigation bar select BuildAll build plans, and select the build number.


Build result summary screen

  1. Status ribbon: Did the build succeed or fail?
  2. Details: Scan details of the build easily.
  3. Stages and jobs in the plan: Scan the success of job builds. Select an icon to see details.
  4. Test summary: Quickly see how many test are failing and how many were fixed in this build. 
  5. Shared artifacts: See the artifacts shared from this build and download them.
  6. History: Scan the status of recent builds.
  7. Who is responsible? Users who commit code are automatically assigned.
  8. Code changes: See the code changes associated with this build.
  9. Jira issues: See the JIRA issues related to this build. Select to go to the issue in Jira for details.


TabDescription
Build summary

Displays a snapshot of the build result.

  • Successful build icon indicates a successful build.
  • Incomplete build icon indicates a build that was not completed. For example, it may have been stopped manually.
  • Failed build icon indicates a failed build. If a build has failed, you can run the entire build again or rerun just the failed stage.
TestsProvides details of the build's test results.
ChangesProvides details of the code changes that triggered this build (if applicable).
ArtifactsShows any artifacts relating to this build.
LogsDisplays a complete build log.
MetadataDisplays any metadata that relates to this build.
Build timesDisplays a histogram of build times for jobs, and a list of which agents were used to build each job.
IssuesProvides details of the Jira issues linked to this build (if applicable). Availability depends on Bamboo's configuration.
CloverDisplays the Clover code-coverage that relates to this build (if applicable). The clover tab is located on the job level because a build can have more than one jobs, and each job might have different Clover results or not have clover tab at all. That's why in order to see the Clover tab, you need to drill down to the individual job that contains the clover report.


  • You can assign responsibility for a broken build, either to yourself (select Claim full responsibility) or to someone else in your team (select Assign responsibility).
