A development team can benefit from setting up a dedicated monitor to display Bamboo's latest build results using Bamboo's wallboard feature, e.g.:

You can choose to display Bamboo's latest results for your favourite plans only, or for all plans that you have permission to see.

On this page:

Displaying the Wallboard for All Plans

To display Bamboo's latest build results for all plans you have permission to see on the dashboard, as a wallboard:

  1. Log in to Bamboo.
    If your Bamboo administrator has allowed anonymous access, this step is optional.
  2. Do either of the following:
    • On the Bamboo Dashboard, click the 'Wallboard' dropdown and select 'All Plans'.
      OR
    • Type the following URL into your browser, but replace 'bambooserver' with the real name of your Bamboo server:
      http://bambooserver:8080/bamboo/telemetry.action
      

Displaying the Wallboard for your Favourite Plans

Before you begin:

  • Only users who have logged in to Bamboo can specify and access favourites.

To display Bamboo's latest build results, for your favourite plans only, as a wallboard:

  1. Log in to Bamboo.
  2. Do either of the following:
    • On the Bamboo Dashboard, click the 'Wallboard' dropdown and select 'Favourite Plans'.
      OR
    • Type the following URL into your browser, but replace 'bambooserver' with the real name of your Bamboo server:

Displaying the Wallboard for your Filtered Plans

You can filter the Plans displayed on your Dashboard by Plan label. The filtered list of Plans can also be displayed on your Wallboard.

To display Bamboo's latest build results, for your filtered plans only, as a wallboard:

  1. Navigate to the dashboard.
  2. Filter the Plans on your dashboard, as desired. For instructions on how to filter the Plans on your dashboard, see Using the Bamboo Dashboard.
  3. Click 'Wallboard' > 'Filtered Plans'.

Notes

  • If your wallboard is displayed on a touchscreen (such as an iPad) or its content can be accessed with a 'human interface device', such as a mouse, then touching or clicking a build result on the wallboard shows more information about that build.

  • Once you are viewing the wallboard in your browser window, set your browser to 'full screen' mode to make the wallboard fill your entire screen. You can set your browser to full screen mode by pressing the F11 key for most common browsers on Windows and UNIX/Linux-based systems and the Shift + Command + F key combination for Firefox on Mac OS X.
  • If you are going to display the wallboard permanently, you may want to ask your Bamboo administrator to create a user who has only a limited set of permissions.
