4.11

Mar 07, 2021

I’m pleased to announce a new release 4.11 is available now.

Highlights

Bugfixes

  • Code sending mail notification on specific event are fixed so that they can be scheduled as Celery tasks (PR#904). To try the asynchronous tasks, run podman-compose up from the top directory of source code.

Distribution

  • RPM subpackages are built for the extras including mysql, pgsql, krbauth, bugzilla and async. It is possible to choose the required package to install according to specific requirements. (#882)

Infrastructure improvements

  • Fedora 34 is added to CI workflow to test the package build. (#909)

  • Tests run in Python 3.9 with various database engines in tests environment. (#912)

  • RabbitMQ is added to the docker-compose.yml as a messaging broker and it works to run asynchronous tasks. (PR#904)

Get Nitrate

From PyPI

python3 -m pip install nitrate-tcms

RPM Packages

Packages are available via a Fedora Copr.

sudo dnf copr enable cqi/python-nitrate-tcms
sudo dnf install python-nitrate-tcms

# Install extra subpackages accordingly, e.g.
sudo dnf install python-nitrate-tcms+pgsql python-nitrate-tcms+async

Container Images

  • quay.io/nitrate/nitrate:4.11: the main image including Nitrate Web application.

  • quay.io/nitrate/nitrate-worker:4.11: an optional worker image if the asynchronous tasks scheduled and run by Celery are required.

Refer to Deployment for detailed information.
