GitLab Integration with Test Management by Testsigma

Integrate GitLab with Test Management by Testsigma and automate your test runs and generate test reports.

Integrate GitLab with Test Management by Testsigma to automate test executions and generate test reports through CI/CD pipelines. This article discusses integrating GitLab with Test Management by Testsigma.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure the following:

• You have a GitLab account and a connected project repository.
• A project and at least one test run exist in Test Management by Testsigma.
• You have an API token from Test Management by Testsigma.
• Your test results are generated in JUnit XML format (for example, reports/junit.xml)

Set Testsigma Secrets in GitLab

To allow GitLab to communicate securely with Testsigma:

1. Go to your project in GitLab
2. Navigate to Settings > CI/CD > Variables and click Expand.

3. Add the following environment variables:

   • TESTSIGMA_API_TOKEN
   • TESTSIGMA_PROJECT_ID
   • TESTSIGMA_RUN_ID
4. Click Save changes.

Configure the GitLab Pipeline

In your project repository, create or update the .gitlab-ci.yml file in the root directory with the following configuration:

stages:
  - upload

upload_testsigma:
  stage: upload
  image: curlimages/curl:8.10.1
  only:
    - main
  script:
    - 'set -eu'
    - 'echo "Looking for reports/junit.xml ..."'
    - 'test -f reports/junit.xml || { echo "File not found: reports/junit.xml"; exit 1; }'
    - 'echo "Uploading JUnit XML to Testsigma..."'
    - 'curl --fail --show-error --location \
        --header "Authorization: Bearer ${TESTSIGMA_API_TOKEN}" \
        --form "junit_xml=@reports/junit.xml" \
        "https://test-management.testsigma.com/api/v1/projects/${TESTSIGMA_PROJECT_ID}/junit-import/test-run/${TESTSIGMA_RUN_ID}"'
    - 'echo "Upload complete."'

This configuration performs the following actions:

• Runs when you push to the main branch.
• Verifies that the JUnit XML file exists.
• Upload the test results to your specified Testsigma project and test run.

Triggering the Pipeline

1. Commit and push your changes to the repository connected to GitLab.
2. GitLab will run the workflow.
3. After completion, the corresponding test run in Test Management by Testsigma will be automatically updated with the test execution results.
