SeaLights Pull Request Integration exposes Quality Risks to the developer as part of the Pull Request process, to be displayed and handled before the code is merged into the main branch.

SeaLights GitHub App Installation

Note

Only an organization owner can install the app

Info

The application will not require any access to your source code

It only requires:

  • Read access to metadata

  • Read and write access to checks

  • Select 'All repositories' or the specific list of repositories you want to receive the SeaLights Pull Request Analysis on

...

Configuring the pull request job

The pull request job needs to run the SeaLights build scan and test listener for the test stages you want the analysis on.
These results will be compared to the latest build you reported to SeaLights for the branch you are merging the Pull Request to.

Pull Request parameters explanation as seen in GitHub.com

You can easily identify the relevant values to pass to the Build Scanner based on the illustration below.
