There are two types of Queue conditions: "Expression" and "Shared resource lock". Expression conditions consist of one or more expressions, which must evaluate to true. Shared resource lock conditions consist of one or more shared resource lock quotas which must be acquired.
...
A discard condition will stop a build before it is executed if any or all of its expressions evaluate to true, depending on the Expression Logic (see below). Note that this is different to queue conditions as only one expression needs to be met for the build to be discarded. Also discard conditions are always expressions - you cannot have discard conditions based on shared resource locks. The difference between discarding and queueing a build is that a discarded build will never run again while a queued build can run at a later time. Discarding builds is useful when certain types of builds should never get built.
...
If accumulate changes is ticked, any new changesets which are detected on associated repositories while the build is waiting in the queue, will be added to this build rather than triggering a new build (if a relevant trigger exists).
Applied to
- User: This condition will only be checked when a build is started manually by a user. A build can only be manually started through the Continua interface by pressing the run or quick run buttons on the Configuration pages.
- Triggers: This condition will only be checked if the build was started by a trigger. Triggered builds include repository triggers, time triggers and build completed triggers.
- Any: All builds will evaluate this condition.
Condition Type
Queue conditions can either be of type "Expression" or "Shared resource lock". Selecting "Expression" allow you to enter expressions which can be evaluated as true or false. Selecting "Shared resource lock" will alow you to enter a list of shared resource identifiers along with lock type and number required.
...
Choose "And" to require that all expressions are true before the condition is met. If "Or" is selected then the condition is met if any of the expression evaluates as true.
Shared Resources
Shared resource locks can be added to the condition by selecting an Identifier. Note that the server shared resources must be set up in the administration area first.
