Options reference

​
Run Full Test Suite

When enabled, CodeBeaver will run your entire test suite before doing anything else. When disabled (recommended for large test suites), CodeBeaver will only test the files that have changed. This option is enabled by default. We recommend to keep this option enabled as it allows CodeBeaver to discover and maintain tests and bugs that are apparently unrelated to the changes you made. For example, let’s say you have worked on the file pizza.py. That file contains a class that is also used by an unchanged file toppings.py that has its own test test_toppings.py. That test is now breaking, following your changes. If you disable the Run Full Test Suite option, CodeBeaver will only run the tests for pizza.py and test_pizza.py. If you enable this option, CodeBeaver will run all the tests for the repository, finding the bug in test_toppings.py. We recommend to keep this option disabled if your test suite is very large and you don’t want to wait for it to complete before CodeBeaver kicks in.

​
Trigger on Pull Requests

When enabled, CodeBeaver will trigger tests on every pull request. When disabled, CodeBeaver will not trigger automatically when you opena new Pull Request on the repository. This option is enabled by default.
Important note: If you are using GitHub Actions or our API to trigger CodeBeaver, these triggers will be activated on top of this option. We therefore recommend to keep this option disabled if you are using GitHub Actions or our API to trigger CodeBeaver.

​
Trigger on Push

When enabled, CodeBeaver will trigger tests on every push to the repository. When disabled, CodeBeaver will not trigger automatically when you push to the repository. This option is disabled by default.
Important note: If you are using GitHub Actions or our API to trigger CodeBeaver, these triggers will be activated on top of this option. We therefore recommend to keep this option disabled if you are using GitHub Actions or our API to trigger CodeBeaver.

​
Create GitHub Check (GitHub only)

When enabled, CodeBeaver will add a check to your Pull Request while running. If CodeBeaver finds bugs or if the tests fail, the check will be marked as failed. Otherwise, it will be marked as successful. This option is enabled by default. We recommend to keep this option enabled as it allows you to see the status of the tests directly in the Pull Request. If you have a CI/CD pipeline, you can use the status of the check to decide whether to merge the Pull Request or not.
