Using readyApi with Github Actions and Maven
I am the only one who is trying to do this? If not please. HELP How / Where do I set the accesstoken.
Why is there no solution to run ReadyAPI with Maven on a headless machine with this "§$&$§" id based license.
I even had a discussion with the AI ChatGPT and to be honest he was a little more useful than the Smartbear Support. At least he gave some weird solutions to what I can try to get my tests running. The support hasn't even answered my question yet.
GitHub Actions is installing ReadyApi with each run and tries to run the tests by given the parameter I have in my POM. The only thing which is missing is this authentication.
At the moment we are running the tests on Bamboo and there we had the same problem. In the end, the support gave us a filebased license but that is not an option anymore.
So is there anybody who is using Maven and figured out where to put the authentication data? I really would appreciate the help.
thank you nmrao I opened several tickets for various problems I am facing. Instead of answering they released a new version and with chatgpt I was able to solve my issues for now...
This is how it working for me
