Bamboo 3.4 : Displaying the Wallboard

 

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

Bamboo can display the latest results for:

  • all plans that you have permission to see.
  • just your favourite plans.
  • plans filtered by Plan label.

How do I do that?

Log in to Bamboo. This is optional when displaying all plans if your Bamboo administrator has allowed anonymous access,

Go to the Dashboard.

Notes

  • You will only be able to display those plans that you have permission to see.
  • 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. (Use F11 for common browsers on Windows and UNIX/Linux-based systems and Shift+Cmd+F 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.
  • 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.
