Automated Script Configuration for Android Builds

Opsera simplifies Android build and release automation through its automatic script generation capabilities, eliminating the need for manual scripting and maintenance.

By selecting a predefined "Script Type" such as Gradle Bundle Release or Gradle Assemble Release, Opsera instantly generates the precise build commands needed for Android pipeline steps. This capability accelerates pipeline setup, minimizes onboarding efforts, and guarantees consistent, error-free builds across all development teams.

Key Highlights:

• Effortless Automation: Script commands are auto-generated removing the dependency on scripting expertise or manual upkeep.

• Script Type Integration: Choose from predefined types to trigger precise build command generation.

• Stable and Predictable Builds: Automation reduces human errors, ensuring repeatable and reliable Android release cycles.

No-Code Pipeline Implementation for iOS

Opsera offers a fully visual, no-code pipeline solution tailored for iOS development.

This intuitive no-code interface automates all critical build, signing, validation, and publishing tasks without requiring any scripting. This capability significantly accelerates adoption, minimizes onboarding complexity, and ensures consistent, compliant, and repeatable iOS app delivery.

Key Highlights:

• Complete End-to-End Automation: Automates all essential iOS pipeline commands including build, signing, validation, and publishing seamlessly within the no-code step.

• Effortless Configuration: Enables teams to visually configure pipelines with drag-and-drop ease, handling complex processes like provisioning profile management, certificate extraction, and IPA export.

• Enhanced Security and Compliance: Consistently performs secure tasks such as entitlement extraction, NFC entitlement removal, and re-signing to maintain release integrity.

• Streamlined App Store Publishing: Automates IPA validation and upload to meet App Store requirements, facilitating faster app releases.

.NET Pipeline Workflow Enhanced with No-Code Support

The .NET Pipeline Workflow in Opsera now includes no-code automation capabilities, enabling users to configure, build and publish workflows directly through the Opsera UI without writing scripts. This ensures consistent artifact publishing with built-in validation, making artifacts accessible for downstream pipeline steps.

Key Highlights:

• Flexible Script Type Selection: A dynamic dropdown allows users to seamlessly switch between no-code ("Opsera") and script-driven ("Custom") modes, with the form automatically updating to reflect the selected configuration approach.

• Automated Publish Process: When the Opsera mode is selected, the dotnet publish command executes automatically using user-defined parameters. Output artifacts are validated and securely staged for immediate use in subsequent pipeline activities.

• Reusable Artifacts: Published artifacts are instantly available for deployment, packaging, testing, and other downstream processes, streamlining workflows and boosting overall pipeline efficiency.

Native SMB Deployment Support in Opsera Pipelines

Opsera offers native SMB deployment capabilities, allowing teams to automate artifact distribution efficiently to on-premise or shared network drives directly within CI/CD pipelines.

This capability eliminates manual file transfers by implementing secure, automated workflows that store sensitive credentials safely in the vault.

Key Highlights:

• Native SMB Tool Type: A dedicated SMB Server tool in the Tool Registry securely stores connection details including server IP, share name, username, and vault-secured password.

• Automated Deployment Step: A native pipeline step enables seamless artifact deployment by selecting an SMB tool and linking to prior artifact generation steps, automating file transfers with no external scripts required.

• Secure and Reusable Configuration: Centralized and encrypted credential management ensures secure access to SMB shares, while configurations can be reused across multiple pipelines.

Unified Insights

Ability to Filter Data in the GitHub Advanced Security Dashboard by Repository

To provide more granular visibility into security insights, the GHAS Dashboard includes a Repository-level filter. This enables users to focus on specific repositories when analyzing GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) metrics and findings.

Lines of Code (LOC) Metrics Added to Commit Stats Table

To enhance developer productivity insights, the Commit Stats KPI within the DevEx dashboard now includes detailed Lines of Code (LOC) metrics. This enables users to correlate commit activity with GitHub Copilot usage and better understand the coding contributions made by each developer.

Key Highlights:

• Total LOC Calculation: A new Total LOC metric summarizes overall code changes per commit.

• Enhanced Visibility: Provides clearer correlation between code contributions and Copilot impact.

Bitbucket Support Added to Tool Mappings

Expanding visibility across source control platforms, the DevEx dashboards support Bitbucket integration in Tool Mappings. This enables users to link and analyze Bitbucket project data within key Developer Experience KPIs.

Key Highlights:

• Bitbucket Added as a Tool Option: Users can now select Bitbucket in the DevEx Tool Mappings configuration.

• Comprehensive Metric Coverage: Bitbucket data is now included in Pull Request Stats, PR Size, Commit Stats, Developer Throughput Summary, and Pipeline Stats.

• Unified SCM Visibility: Enables cross-platform comparison across GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket within the DevEx analytics suite.

Column Renaming and Merge Duration Trend Enhancements

The PR Stats Dashboard has been refined to improve clarity and data interpretation for pull request analytics. These changes enhance the visibility of key time-based metrics and introduce a new trend visualization for merge duration analysis.

Key Highlights:

• Column Name Updates:

  • “Created At” renamed to “PR Created At” for better context.

  • “Duration” renamed to “Duration / Merge Time” for clarity on calculation metrics.

• Column order adjusted for improved visibility of PR Cycle Time, Duration / Merge Time, and PR Approval Duration.
