Documentation for Bamboo 4.0.x. Documentation for earlier versions of Bamboo is available too.

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'.
