Rerun tests on CircleCI

Configure the CircleCI integration so you can rerun failed tests from the Test Reporting & Analytics dashboard.

BrowserStack Test Reporting & Analytics lets you rerun failed tests directly from the dashboard after you integrate CircleCI. This integration removes the need to manually trigger CircleCI builds.

Before you proceed, complete the main setup to rerun failed tests: Rerun failed tests with Test Reporting & Analytics.

Configure the CircleCI integration

Each user who wants to trigger reruns must complete this setup:

1. Go to the Integrations page and click Connect under CircleCI.
2. Create a CircleCI personal API token:
   • In the CircleCI web app, click your user avatar in the top-right corner, then click User settings. You can also go to User settings directly.
   • Click Personal API Tokens > Create New Token.
   • In the Token name field, enter a name that identifies where the token is used, such as browserstack-rerun.
   • Click Add API Token.
   • Copy the token and store it securely. CircleCI displays the token only once, and you can’t view it again.
3. In the BrowserStack integration form, enter the token and click Submit.
4. Rotate the token periodically, and remove it from Personal API Tokens in CircleCI if you stop using the integration.

For details, see Managing API tokens in the CircleCI documentation.

Trigger reruns

After you complete the CI configuration, follow these steps to rerun failed test cases:

1. Go to the Test listing to view failed test cases.
2. Hover over the failed test name to display the action icons.
   
3. Click the rerun icon to open the rerun options.
