Overview
CloudBees Release Orchestration SaaS enables you to view all commits and builds, including their status, and a visual representation of the pipeline from commit to production. Build summary, test results details, deployment summary, and success or failure status are all available. You can find where a given failure is, who should be notified, and how it can be fixed. Because you have visibility into all errors in build, deploy, test, and custom steps, you can make informed decisions leading to successful deployments.
You must have the Admin, Developer, QA, or Manager role to access | and .
Accessing commit and build information
You can filter a list of commits or builds, display a visual representation of a selected pipeline, and display details of the pipeline execution.

-
The test summary details are displayed. These include:
-
The Environment where test suites are run.
-

A link to the logs for each passed test.
-
A link to the root cause for each failed test.
-
Any pending open bugs.
Identifying a rolled back commit
A red rollback icon next to Commit ID indicates that the current commit is rolled back to the previous commit. To learn more, refer to Enabling rollback.

Select Rollback History to display the stage history, including:
