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 said to be 'Broken'.
  • if the build result is 'Successful', and the previous build result was 'Failed', the build is said to be 'Fixed'.

Viewing the most recent build result for a plan

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

  1. Click Dashboard in the top menu.
  2. Locate the plan on the All Plans tab, then click the build number.

TabDescription
Build Summary

Displays a snapshot of the build result.

  • indicates a successful build.
  • indicates a build that was not completed. For example, it may have been stopped manually.
  • 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 (click Claim full responsibility) or to someone else in your team (click Assign responsibility).
