This tutorial describes how you can hide sensitive information, such as connection strings or their parts, while still keep and use the same code base locally and in pipelines without any changes. What any pipeline needs besides that — the Enterprise plan, the license key set on the agent (required from CAT 3. https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-gitlab/ Mon, 04 Sep 2023 14:40:56 +0100 https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-gitlab/ Prerequisites # An existing project in GitLab A repository containing CAT project files along with test definitions A basic understanding of CAT Before you start # A pipeline is automated use: CAT allows it on the Enterprise plan only, unlocked by a license key stored on the machine that runs the tests — the Starter, Professional and Team plans refuse a run started by a CI/CD platform, and from CAT 3. https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-github-actions/ Mon, 04 Sep 2023 14:40:56 +0100 https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-github-actions/ Prerequisites # GitHub public or private repository set up CAT project along with test definitions created and pushed to the repository A basic understanding of CAT Before you start # A pipeline is automated use: CAT allows it on the Enterprise plan only, unlocked by a license key stored on the machine that runs the tests — the Starter, Professional and Team plans refuse a run started by a CI/CD platform, and from CAT 3. https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-jenkins/ Mon, 04 Sep 2023 14:40:56 +0100 https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-jenkins/ Prerequisites # Jenkins installed and set up on your machine.

The key, like the environment variables the project file reads, is per user: set it under the account the job step runs as (the SQL Server Agent service account, or the proxy account of the step), not under your own. https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-windows-task-scheduler/ Fri, 21 Aug 2026 10:00:00 +0200 https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-windows-task-scheduler/ Before you start # A scheduled task is automation, and CAT recognizes Windows Task Scheduler: the run needs the Enterprise plan and a license key — from CAT 3.0 a task without the key stops before any test runs — see Integrations. Decide which Windows account the task runs as — a service account is the usual choice — because three things are stored per user: the license key (%APPDATA%\CAT\.catconfig), user-level environment variables, and the PowerShell module when installed with -Scope CurrentUser. https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-cron/ Fri, 21 Aug 2026 10:00:00 +0200 https://docs.justcat.it/how-to-guides/pipelines-and-schedulers/cat-in-cron/ Before you start # cron is a scheduler and CAT recognizes it: an unattended run needs the Enterprise plan and a license key — from CAT 3.0 a cron job without the key stops before any test runs — see Integrations. On Linux the tool is the PowerShell module (CAT CLI and the Python module are Windows-only); PowerShell 7 installed per Run CAT on Linux. The providers built on Windows components — Dax@*, PowerBI@*, CsvOleDB@1, ExcelOleDB@1 — are not available here; a cron job tests databases and files.
