Similarly, platform usage data enables us to prioritize the investments and product improvements that drive more impact for you.\t\n\nHistorically, we’ve collected both event and aggregate product usage data from GitLab.com. However, for GitLab Self-Managed and Dedicated instances, the absence of event data has required the GitLab Customer Success team to rely on manual data extraction methods to gather key insights, including job runtimes, runner usage for cost optimization, pipeline success rates, and deployment frequency for assessing DevSecOps maturity. Access to event-level data reduces the need for workarounds and enables more efficient reporting and optimizations.\n**Note: Throughout this blog, when we discuss event collection, we are exclusively referring to the collection of events for all features except those included in GitLab Duo. For more details, please refer to our [Customer Product Usage Information page](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/legal/privacy/customer-product-usage-information/).**\n\n## Understanding event-level data\n\nEvent-level data tracks product usage interactions within the GitLab platform, such as initiating CI/CD pipelines, merging a merge request, triggering a webhook, or creating a new issue. User identifiers are pseudonymized to protect privacy, and GitLab does not undertake any processes to re-identify or associate the metrics with individual users. Importantly, event-level data does not include source code or other customer-created content stored within GitLab. To learn more, visit our [Customer Product Usage Information page](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/legal/privacy/customer-product-usage-information/) and [event data documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/settings/event_data/).\n\nHere is an example of a data sample we collect:\n\n![event-level data - code example](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1750099231/Blog/Content%20Images/Blog/Content%20Images/image2_aHR0cHM6_1750099230972.png)\n\n## How event-level data collection benefits you\n\nEvent-level data offers a wealth of insights beyond what aggregated data can provide. It enables slicing and aggregating pseudonymized system instrumentation to identify trends, highlight unused or underused areas, and signal product improvements. By analyzing usage patterns in context, we can understand which features are used, how, and in what sequence. This visibility uncovers bottlenecks and optimization opportunities that aggregated data would miss.\n\n* **In-depth feature usage analysis**    Rather than just knowing which features are used weekly or monthly, event-level data provides a clearer picture of how users experience GitLab and the frequency of their usage. This enables us to gain a deeper understanding of user behavior and highlights areas for improvement.  * **Trend discovery**    Event-level data helps identify trends in GitLab adoption that can’t be seen with rolling aggregates. With these insights, the GitLab Customer Success team can help customers make more informed decisions on feature adoption and usage, improving overall efficiency.  * **Smarter product improvements**    Event-level data gives GitLab’s Product team a clearer picture of real-world customer needs. By analyzing usage patterns, product improvements can be aligned with customer priorities, leading to continuous enhancements that make GitLab more powerful, efficient, and user-friendly.  * **Custom insights for your use case**    Event-level data will enable GitLab Customer Success to provide tailored insights based on your organization's overall product usage without identifying individual users. This flexibility helps our teams provide recommendations that address your unique needs and challenges.\n\n## You stay in control of your data\n\n![event-level data - screen of choices](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1750099231/Blog/Content%20Images/Blog/Content%20Images/Screenshot_2025-04-02_at_12.14.12_PM_aHR0cHM6_1750099230972.png)\n\nWe’re committed to rolling this out with a strong focus on privacy. Here’s what we’re doing to ensure transparency and choice:\n\n✅ **Pre-deployment early opt-out** – Data sharing can be disabled by instance admins in the 17.11 release before event collection begins in 18.0. The pre-deployment early opt-out option will remain available after 18.0; just upgrade to 17.11 first and disable data sharing.\n\n✅ **Proactive communication** – Updates on the progress of this initiative shared via blog posts, emails to GitLab admins, and updates through your GitLab account team.\n\n ✅ **No third-party collectors** - GitLab’s event-level instrumentation will not use any third-party collectors; it’s built and operated by GitLab, and events are sent directly to GitLab-managed environments, similar to [Service Ping](https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/legal/privacy/customer-product-usage-information/#service-ping-formerly-known-as-usage-ping).\n\n✅ **Detailed documentation** – Detailed documentation is available [here](https://docs.gitlab.com/administration/settings/event_data/), and a list of FAQs is available [here](http://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/legal/privacy/product-usage-events-faq/).\n\n✅ **De-identification approach** – We will continue to apply aggregation and/or pseudonymization to any event-level data collected from Self-Managed and Dedicated.\n\n## What’s next\n\n* **Product enhancements (coming up!)** - Improvements to GitLab user experiences and adoption insights made possible by event-level data.\n\n*Disclaimer: This blog contains information related to upcoming products, features, and functionality.

Catalog component.","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1775486753/cswmwtygkgkbdsibo09v.png",[731,9,557],"tutorial",[733,734],"Matt Genelin","Matt Bonner","2026-04-07","In modern software development, test management and continuous integration are two sides of the same coin. DevSecOps teams need seamless integration between their CI/CD pipelines and test management platforms to maintain visibility, traceability, and compliance across the software development lifecycle.\n\nThis becomes even more important as testing scales across automated pipelines, where execution data is spread across tools and harder to track in one place.\n\nFor organizations using GitLab for CI/CD and SmartBear QMetry for test management, manually uploading test results creates friction, delays feedback loops, and makes it harder to maintain a reliable, centralized view of testing.\n\nWhat if you could automatically publish your JUnit, TestNG, or other test results directly from your GitLab pipeline to QMetry with just a few lines of configuration?\n\nThat's exactly what the new **QMetry GitLab Component** enables. This reusable CI/CD component, now available in the [GitLab CI/CD Catalog](https://gitlab.com/explore/catalog), eliminates the manual overhead of test result management by automatically uploading test execution data to QMetry.  This is an AI-enabled, enterprise-grade test management platform that brings together test planning, execution, tracking, and reporting in one place.\n\nAs a centralized system of record for testing, QMetry helps teams understand coverage, track execution, and make more reliable release decisions.\n\nIn this guide, you'll learn:\n\n* How to set up the QMetry GitLab Component in your pipeline  \n* How to configure automated test result uploads  \n* Advanced configuration options for enterprise requirements  \n* A real-world aerospace industry use case  \n* Best practices for test management automation\n\nBy the end of this article, your GitLab pipelines will automatically feed test results into QMetry, giving your QA teams instant visibility into test execution and helping them make faster, more confident release decisions.\n\n![SmartBear QMetry GitLab integration](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1775488045/ojt707rzxnm2yr3vqxdh.png)\n\n## Why integrate GitLab with QMetry?\n\nBefore diving into the technical implementation, let's understand the value this integration delivers:\n\n### Eliminate manual test result uploads\n\nDevSecOps engineers and QA teams no longer need to manually export test results from CI/CD runs and import them into test management systems. The component handles this automatically after every pipeline execution.\n\nThis reduces manual effort while ensuring test data stays consistent, up to date, and easy to access across teams.\n\n![Test results with SmartBear QMetry GitLab integration](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1775488045/ajx64sihup2nursdpnxz.png)\n\n### Enable end-to-end traceability\n\nBy connecting GitLab's CI/CD execution data with QMetry's test management capabilities, teams gain complete traceability from requirements through test cases to actual test execution results. This is critical for regulated industries like financial services, aerospace, medical devices, and automotive, where audit trails are mandatory and regulatory compliance depends on demonstrating complete test coverage.\n\nIt also gives teams a clearer view of coverage and risk across releases, making it easier to understand what’s been tested and what still needs attention.\n\n### Accelerate feedback loops\n\nAutomated test result uploads mean QA teams, product managers, and stakeholders see test execution results immediately after pipeline completion – no waiting for manual data entry or report generation.\n\nWith faster access to results, teams can act immediately, reduce delays, and make quicker, more informed release decisions.\n\n### Support compliance and audit requirements\n\nFor organizations in regulated industries, maintaining comprehensive test records with proper versioning and traceability is non-negotiable. This integration ensures you can document every test execution properly in QMetry with links back to the specific GitLab pipeline, commit, and build.\n\nThis creates an audit-ready record of testing activity without adding manual overhead.\n\n![Audit-ready record of testing with SmartBear QMetry GitLab integration](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1775488045/q2tbaw5otgdywjkcquqx.png)\n\n### Leverage AI-powered test insights\n\nQMetry uses AI to analyze test execution patterns, identify flaky tests, predict test failures, and recommend optimization opportunities. Feeding it real-time data from GitLab pipelines maximizes the value of these AI capabilities.\n\nWith continuous data flowing in, teams get more accurate insights and can focus their efforts where it matters most.\n\n![Accurage insights with SmartBear QMetry GitLab integration](https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1775488045/pl7ru4wx8ixnheedfyrs.png)\n\n## About the GitLab and SmartBear partnership\n\nThis component represents a growing partnership between GitLab and SmartBear to better connect CI/CD execution with test management in a single workflow. SmartBear brings deep expertise in testing, API management, and quality automation, while GitLab provides the most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps platform. Together, they help teams streamline how testing fits into the development lifecycle while maintaining the quality, security, and compliance standards their industries require.\n\nWhether you're managing test execution for aerospace flight control systems, financial services platforms, automotive safety applications, or medical device software, the combination of GitLab's CI/CD capabilities and QMetry's test management gives teams a centralized, reliable view of testing across the lifecycle, helping them track execution, maintain traceability, and make more confident release decisions.\n\n## What you'll need\n\nBefore getting started, ensure you have:\n\n* **A GitLab account** with a project containing automated tests that generate test result files (JUnit XML, TestNG XML, etc.)  \n* **QMetry Test Management Enterprise** account with API access enabled  \n* **QMetry API Key** generated  from your QMetry instance (we'll cover this shortly)  \n* **QMetry Project** already created where you will upload test results   \n* **Familiarity with GitLab CI/CD**, including understanding of basic `.gitlab-ci.yml` syntax and pipeline concepts  \n* **Test suite configuration** in QMetry (optional but recommended for better organization)\n\n### Understanding the test result flow\n\nHere's what happens when you integrate this component:\n\n1. **Test execution**: Your GitLab CI/CD pipeline runs automated tests (unit tests, integration tests, E2E tests, etc.).  \n2. **Result generation**: Tests produce output files in formats like JUnit XML, TestNG XML, or other supported formats.  \n3. **Component invocation**: The QMetry component executes as a job in your pipeline.  \n4. **Automatic upload**: The component reads your test result files and uploads them to QMetry via API.  \n5. **QMetry processing**: QMetry receives the results, processes them, and makes them available for reporting and analysis.\n\nThe beauty of this integration is that it happens automatically, with no manual intervention required once configured.\n\n## Part 1: Getting your QMetry API credentials\n\nBefore configuring the GitLab component, you need to obtain API access credentials from your QMetry instance. Here are the steps to follow:\n\n### 1. Access QMetry settings\n\n1. Log in to your **QMetry Test Management Enterprise** instance.  \n2. Navigate to your **user profile** (typically in the top-right corner).  \n3. Select **Settings** or **API Access** from the dropdown menu.\n\n### 2. Generate an API key\n\n1. In the API Access section, click **Generate New API Key.**  \n2. Provide a descriptive **name** for the key (e.g., \"GitLab CI/CD Integration\").  \n3. Set appropriate **permissions**. The key needs write access to upload test results.  \n4. Click **Generate.**  \n5. **Copy the API key immediately** as it will only be displayed once.\n\n**Important security note**: Treat your API key like a password. Never commit it directly to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file or store it in plain text. We'll use GitLab CI/CD variables to store it securely.\n\n### 3. Note your QMetry instance URL\n\nYou'll also need your QMetry instance URL, which typically follows this format:\n\n```text\nhttps://your-company.qmetry.com\n```\n\nor, for self-hosted instances:\n\n```text\nhttps://qmetry.your-company.com\n```\n\nMake note of this URL because you'll need it in the next section.\n\n## Part 2: Configuring GitLab CI/CD variables\n\nNow that you have your QMetry credentials, let's store them securely in GitLab. Here are the next steps to follow:\n\n### 4. Navigate to CI/CD settings\n\n1. Open your **GitLab project.**  \n2. In the left sidebar, navigate to **Settings > CI/CD.**  \n3. Expand the **Variables** section.  \n4. Click **Add variable.**\n\n### 5. Add the QMetry API key\n\nConfigure the API key variable:\n\n| Field | Value |\n| ----- | ----- |\n| **Key** | `QMETRY_API_KEY` |\n| **Value** | Your QMetry API key from Step 2 |\n| **Type** | Variable |\n| **Flags** | ✅ Mask variable\u003Cbr>✅ Protect variable (recommended) |\n\nClick **Add variable** to save.\n\n### 6. Add the QMetry instance URL\n\nAdd a second variable for your instance URL:\n\n| Field | Value |\n| ----- | ----- |\n| **Key** | `INSTANCE_URL` |\n| **Value** | Your QMetry instance URL (e.g., `https://your-company.qmetry.com`) |\n| **Type** | Variable |\n| **Flags** | (optional: Protect variable) |\n\nClick **Add variable** to save.\n\n**Why use CI/CD variables?**\n\n* **Security**: Masked variables are hidden in job logs.  \n* **Reusability**: You can use the same credentials across multiple pipelines.  \n* **Flexibility**: It is easy to rotate credentials without modifying pipeline code.  \n* **Access control**: Protected variables are only available on protected branches.\n\n## Part 3: Understanding your test result files\n\nBefore integrating the component, ensure your tests generate output files that QMetry can process. Here are the next steps to follow:\n\n### 7. Verify test output format\n\nThe QMetry component supports multiple test result formats. The most common is **JUnit XML**, which most testing frameworks can generate:\n\n**Example JUnit XML output** (`results.xml`):\n\n```xml\n\u003C?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n\u003Ctestsuites>\n  \u003Ctestsuite name=\"Flight Control System Tests\" tests=\"15\" failures=\"1\" errors=\"0\" time=\"45.231\">\n    \u003Ctestcase classname=\"FlightControlTests\" name=\"testAltitudeHold\" time=\"2.341\">\n      \u003Csystem-out>Altitude hold engaged at 10,000 feet\u003C/system-out>\n    \u003C/testcase>\n    \u003Ctestcase classname=\"FlightControlTests\" name=\"testAutopilotEngagement\" time=\"3.125\">\n      \u003Csystem-out>Autopilot engaged successfully\u003C/system-out>\n    \u003C/testcase>\n    \u003Ctestcase classname=\"FlightControlTests\" name=\"testEmergencyLanding\" time=\"5.892\">\n      \u003Cfailure message=\"Landing gear failed to deploy\">\n        Expected: Landing gear deployed\n        Actual: Landing gear malfunction detected\n      \u003C/failure>\n    \u003C/testcase>\n    \u003C!-- Additional test cases... -->\n  \u003C/testsuite>\n\u003C/testsuites>\n```\n\nMost testing frameworks generate this format automatically:\n\n* **JUnit** (Java): Native format  \n* **pytest** (Python): Use `--junitxml=results.xml` flag  \n* **Jest** (JavaScript): Use `jest-junit` reporter  \n* **RSpec** (Ruby): Use `rspec_junit_formatter`  \n* **NUnit** (.NET): Use `nunit-console` with XML output  \n* **Go test**: Use `go-junit-report`\n\n### 8. Confirm test artifact configuration\n\nEnsure your existing pipeline saves test results as **artifacts**. This allows the QMetry component to access them:\n\n```yaml\ntest:\n  stage: test\n  script:\n    - npm install\n    - npm test -- --reporter=junit --reporter-options=output=results.xml\n  artifacts:\n    reports:\n      junit: results.xml\n    paths:\n      - results.xml\n    when: always  # Upload even if tests fail\n```\n\n**Key points**:\n\n* `artifacts.reports.junit` makes results visible in GitLab's test report UI.  \n* `artifacts.paths` ensures the file is available to downstream jobs.  \n* `when: always` ensures results upload even if tests fail.\n\n## Part 4: Integrating the QMetry component\n\nNow for the main event – adding the QMetry component to your pipeline. Here are the next steps to follow:\n\n### 9. Basic component integration\n\nAdd the component to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. The component should run **after** your tests complete:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\nLet's break down each input parameter:\n\n| Parameter | Description | Example |\n| ----- | ----- | ----- |\n| `stage` | Which CI/CD stage runs the upload job | `test` |\n| `project` | Your QMetry project name or key | `\"Aerospace Flight Control System\"` |\n| `file_name` | Path to your test results file | `\"results.xml\"` |\n| `testing_type` | Format of your test results | `\"JUNIT\"` (also supports: `TESTNG`, `NUNIT`, etc.) |\n| `instance_url` | Your QMetry instance URL | `${INSTANCE_URL}` (from CI/CD variables) |\n| `api_key` | QMetry API key for authentication | `${QMETRY_API_KEY}` (from CI/CD variables) |\n\n### 10. Complete pipeline example\n\nHere's a complete `.gitlab-ci.yml` example showing test execution followed by QMetry upload:\n\n```yaml\nstages:\n  - test\n  - report\n\nvariables:\n  # Your app-specific variables\n  NODE_VERSION: \"18\"\n\n# Run your automated tests\nunit-tests:\n  stage: test\n  image: node:${NODE_VERSION}\n  script:\n    - npm ci\n    - npm run test:unit -- --reporter=junit --reporter-options=output=results.xml\n  artifacts:\n    reports:\n      junit: results.xml\n    paths:\n      - results.xml\n    when: always\n  tags:\n    - docker\n\n# Upload results to QMetry\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test  # Runs in same stage as tests\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\n### 11. Run your pipeline\n\nCommit and push your changes:\n\n```shell\ngit add .gitlab-ci.yml\ngit commit -m \"Add QMetry test result integration\"\ngit push origin main\n```\n\nNavigate to your GitLab project's **CI/CD > Pipelines** to watch the execution.\n\n### 12. Verify successful upload\n\nAfter the pipeline completes, you should see:\n\n**In GitLab**:\n\n1. A new job in your pipeline named `qmetry-import` (or similar)  \n2. Job logs showing successful API communication  \n3. Green checkmark indicating successful upload\n\n**Example successful job log**:\n\n```json\n$ curl -X POST https://your-company.qmetry.com/api/v3/test-results/import \\\n  -H \"Authorization: Bearer ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\" \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d @payload.json\n\n{\n  \"status\": \"success\",\n  \"message\": \"Test results uploaded successfully\",\n  \"results_processed\": 15,\n  \"test_cases_created\": 3,\n  \"test_cases_updated\": 12,\n  \"execution_id\": \"EXE-12345\"\n}\n\nJob succeeded ```\n\n**In QMetry**:\n\n1. Navigate to your project dashboard.  \n2. Check the **Test Executions** section.  \n3. You should see a new test execution with results from your GitLab pipeline.  \n4. Click into the execution to see detailed test case results.\n\n\n## Part 5: Advanced configuration options\n\nNow that you have the basic integration working, let's explore advanced configuration for enterprise requirements. Here are the next steps to follow:\n\n### 13. Organizing results with test suites\n\nFor better organization, you can specify which QMetry test suite should receive results:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      testsuite_name: \"Sprint 23 Regression Tests\"\n      testsuite_id: \"TS-456\"  # Optional: Use existing test suite ID\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\n**When to use test suites**:\n\n* Organizing tests by sprint or release  \n* Separating regression tests from new feature tests  \n* Grouping tests by component or subsystem  \n* Creating test execution hierarchies for reporting\n\n### 14. Configuring automation hierarchy levels\n\nQMetry supports hierarchical test organization. Use the `automation_hierarchy` parameter to specify the organization level:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      automation_hierarchy: \"2\"  # Level 2 hierarchy\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\n**Hierarchy levels explained**:\n\n* **Level 1**: Top-level test suites (e.g., \"All Regression Tests\")  \n* **Level 2**: Sub-suites (e.g., \"Flight Control Tests\" under \"Regression Tests\")  \n* **Level 3**: Granular test groups (e.g., \"Altitude Hold Tests\" under \"Flight Control\")\n\n### 15. Multiple test result files\n\nFor complex projects with multiple test jobs, you can invoke the component multiple times:\n\n```yaml\nstages:\n  - test\n\n# Unit tests\nunit-tests:\n  stage: test\n  script:\n    - npm run test:unit\n  artifacts:\n    paths:\n      - unit-results.xml\n    when: always\n\n# Integration tests\nintegration-tests:\n  stage: test\n  script:\n    - npm run test:integration\n  artifacts:\n    paths:\n      - integration-results.xml\n    when: always\n\n# Upload unit test results\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"unit-results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      testsuite_name: \"Unit Tests - Sprint 23\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n\n  # Upload integration test results\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"integration-results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      testsuite_name: \"Integration Tests - Sprint 23\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\n### 16. Custom runner tags\n\nFor enterprise environments with dedicated runners, specify runner tags:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      runner_tag: \"production-runners\"  # Use specific runner pool\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\n### 17. Custom test suite folders\n\nOrganize test suites into folders for better project structure:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      testsuite_folder_path: \"/Regression/Sprint-23/Flight-Controls\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\nThis creates a folder hierarchy in QMetry:\n\n```none\nAerospace Flight Control System/\n└── Regression/\n    └── Sprint-23/\n        └── Flight-Controls/\n            └── [Your test execution]\n```\n\n### 18. Advanced field mapping\n\nFor enterprise QMetry instances with custom fields, use the `testcase_fields` and `testsuite_fields` parameters:\n\n```yaml\ninclude:\n  - component: gitlab.com/sb9945614/qtm-gitlab-component/qmetry-import@1.0.5\n    inputs:\n      stage: test\n      project: \"Aerospace Flight Control System\"\n      file_name: \"results.xml\"\n      testing_type: \"JUNIT\"\n      testcase_fields: \"priority=P1,component=FlightControl,certification=DO-178C\"\n      testsuite_fields: \"release=v2.4.0,sprint=23\"\n      instance_url: ${INSTANCE_URL}\n      api_key: ${QMETRY_API_KEY}\n```\n\nThis adds custom metadata to test cases and suites for enhanced filtering and reporting.\n\n## Part 6: Real-world use cases\n\nLet's explore how organizations across different industries are using this integration to solve critical quality and compliance challenges.\n\n### Financial services: Enterprise banking platforms\n\nLeading financial institutions are evolving their engineering practices with integrated DevOps platforms. These organizations face unique challenges when managing test automation at scale.\n\n**The challenge for financial services**:\n\n* **Regulatory compliance**: Financial services must maintain detailed audit trails for all testing activities.  \n* **Multiple compliance frameworks**: Firms must adhere to FCA, PSD2, GDPR, and internal risk management policies.  \n* **High-frequency deployments**: Multiple production deployments are required daily across microservices.  \n* **Zero-tolerance for failures**: Banking systems require extremely high reliability.  \n* **Distributed teams**: QA teams need real-time visibility across global engineering teams.\n\n**The solution**: Financial services organizations implementing the QMetry GitLab Component can automate test result uploads across their CI/CD pipelines for:\n\n* Unit tests for hundreds of microservices  \n* API contract tests for inter-service communication  \n* End-to-end transaction flow tests  \n* Security and compliance scanning results  \n* Performance and load testing results\n\n**Example implementation approach**:\n\n```yaml\n# Financial services approach: Separate test uploads by test type\nstages:\n  -

They're built for interactive coding sessions, not automation across different stages of software development. GitLab Duo CLI, now in public beta, is built for both.\n\nGitLab Duo CLI brings agentic AI powered by [Duo Agent Platform](https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-duo-agent-platform/) to the terminal with full support for automated workflows, alongside an interactive chat mode when you need a human in the loop. This article highlights what Duo CLI does, how its two operating modes work, and the security model behind it.\n\n## How to install GitLab Duo CLI\n\nIf you already have GLab (the GitLab CLI) installed, enter:\n\n```\nglab duo cli\n```\n\nThen follow the prompts.\n\nIf you don't have GLab yet, you can [install it here](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli/#installation) or [use GitLab Duo CLI as a standalone tool](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/gitlab_duo_cli/#without-the-gitlab-cli).\n\n## Why the terminal, and why now\n\nThe first wave of AI assistants for software development lived in the IDE, and focused solely on coding. That made sense when the job was autocomplete. But as AI agents start *doing things* across every stage of the software lifecycle, e.g. running tests, triggering pipelines, monitoring vulnerability scans, and more, the IDE may no longer be the only abstraction needed to get the job done.\n\nThe best developer tools are ones that work for both humans and machines. CLIs have had decades of design iteration toward that goal. They're composable. You can pipe output, chain commands, and drop them into scripts. They're debuggable: when something goes wrong, you run the same command yourself and see exactly what the agent saw. And they're transparent. No background processes, no initialization dance, no protocol to decode when things break.\n\nTerminal interfaces are better for automation, scripting, and environment portability. IDE interfaces are better for interactive, context-rich development. GitLab Duo CLI is designed for the former, while Duo Agentic Chat in the IDE and UI covers the latter.\n\n## What GitLab Duo CLI can do\n\nWith GitLab Duo CLI, developers can build, modify, refactor, and modernize code — similar to other AI-powered coding assistants built for the terminal. But that’s not where they stop. Any agent and flow defined within GitLab Duo Agent Platform is accessible via Duo CLI, whether it is to automate CI/CD configuration and optimize pipelines, or to perform multi-step development tasks autonomously across the entire software development lifecycle.\n\nGitLab Duo CLI runs in two modes:\n\n* **Interactive mode**, an editor-agnostic terminal chat experience with human-in-the-loop approval before any action is taken. Use it to understand codebase structure, create code, fix errors, or troubleshoot broken pipelines.  \n* **Headless mode**, non-interactive, designed for runners, scripts, and automated workflows. Drop it into CI/CD and let it work without handholding.\n\n## AI with guardrails\n\nAgentic AI that can take actions creates real security exposure. GitLab Duo CLI addresses this at the platform level, not as an afterthought:\n\n* **Human-in-the-loop by default** in interactive mode, so no action is taken without approval.  \n* **Prompt injection detection** is built into the GitLab Duo Agent Platform, not bolted on.  \n* **Composite identity** limits what the agent can access and makes every AI-driven action auditable.\n\nGitLab Duo CLI also supports [custom instruction files](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/duo_agent_platform/customize/), e.g. `chat-rules.md`, `AGENTS.md`, and `SKILL.md`, that define which tasks, resources, context, knowledge, and actions your agents are permitted to take. **This is the principle of least privilege applied to AI: Your agent does exactly what you've authorized, and nothing more.**\n\nWatch GitLab Duo CLI in action:\n\u003Ciframe src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/1179964611?badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"GitLab Duo CLI Beta Demo V1\">\u003C/iframe>\u003Cscript src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js\">\u003C/script>\n\n## Use GitLab Duo CLI today\n\nYou can experience the benefits of GitLab Duo CLI by [starting a free trial of GitLab Duo Agent Platform](https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-duo-agent-platform/). \n\nIf you are already using GitLab in the free tier, you can sign up for GitLab Duo Agent Platform by [following a few simple steps](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_credits/#for-the-free-tier-on-gitlabcom). \n\nAnd if you are an existing subscriber to GitLab Premium or Ultimate, you can take advantage of GitLab Duo CLI by simply [turning on Duo Agent Platform](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/duo_agent_platform/turn_on_off/) and start using the GitLab Credits [that are included](https://docs.gitlab.com/subscriptions/gitlab_credits/#included-credits) with your subscription.",[748,9,24],"AI/ML",{"featured":12,"template":13,"slug":750},"gitlab-duo-cli",{"promotions":752},[753,767,778],{"id":754,"categories":755,"header":757,"text":758,"button":759,"image":764},"ai-modernization",[756],"ai-ml","Is AI achieving its promise at scale?","Quiz will take 5 minutes or less",{"text":760,"config":761},"Get your AI maturity score",{"href":762,"dataGaName":763,"dataGaLocation":242},"/assessments/ai-modernization-assessment/","modernization assessment",{"config":765},{"src":766},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/qix0m7kwnd8x2fh1zq49.png",{"id":768,"categories":769,"header":770,"text":758,"button":771,"image":775},"devops-modernization",[9,567],"Are you just managing tools or shipping innovation?",{"text":772,"config":773},"Get your DevOps maturity score",{"href":774,"dataGaName":763,"dataGaLocation":242},"/assessments/devops-modernization-assessment/",{"config":776},{"src":777},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138785/eg818fmakweyuznttgid.png",{"id":779,"categories":780,"header":782,"text":758,"button":783,"image":787},"security-modernization",[781],"security","Are you trading speed for security?",{"text":784,"config":785},"Get your security maturity score",{"href":786,"dataGaName":763,"dataGaLocation":242},"/assessments/security-modernization-assessment/",{"config":788},{"src":789},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/p4pbqd9nnjejg5ds6mdk.png",{"header":791,"blurb":792,"button":793,"secondaryButton":798},"Start building faster today","See what your team can do with the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps.\n",{"text":794,"config":795},"Get your free trial",{"href":796,"dataGaName":49,"dataGaLocation":797},"https://gitlab.com/-/trial_registrations/new?glm_content=default-saas-trial&glm_source=about.gitlab.com/","feature",{"text":504,"config":799},{"href":53,"dataGaName":54,"dataGaLocation":797},1777309976154]
