Setting automated testing project options

You can enable automatic deletion of builds and associated automated test results from the Helix ALM Server and number of days after a build is added to Helix ALM until it is deleted. This can be helpful if you use the Helix ALM Test Management Jenkins plugin and have a large amount of test data stored in Helix ALM that is no longer needed after a period of time.

Only unprotected builds that do not contain any automated test results linked to other items can be automatically deleted.

Tip:  You can also manually delete unprotected builds in the Helix ALM web client. See Manually deleting builds in the web client user guide.

1. Choose Tools > Administration > Project Options.

The Project Options dialog box opens.

2. Select the Automated Testing category.

3. To enable automatic deletion, select Delete unprotected builds and automated test results after X days and enter or select the number of days before a build is deleted. You can enter 7 to 365 days.

4. Click OK to save the changes.
