• Configuring a Release Template

 

 

1. Defining a Release Path for running Automated Tests as part of Release

  • Navigate to Configure Paths | Release Paths and double-click on the "New".
  • Change the name of release path to be "Release Path for Automated MTM Tests" and one deployment stage: Test.
  • On the TEST stage, specify:
    • Environment
