Microsoft Teams Integration

Microsoft teams is a cloud-based group chat software meant to get everyone in your team on the same page. You can conduct online meetings, voice-calling, instant messaging, file sharing with your colleagues for faster and thorough collaboration.

LambdaTest integration with Microsoft Teams allows you to push a bug directly to your specified Teams channel from LambdaTest platform. Share your UI observations and input with your teammates on any time, by capturing a screenshot in the middle of your test session through LambdaTest. You can annotate the screenshot & highlight your issue or input. The fields populated by you when marking as a bug through LambdaTest are displayed as information on the respective Teams channel for that testing instance.

How To Log Your First Bug Through Microsoft Teams Integration?

Step 1: Go for any of the test from the left navigation menu. For demo, we will be taking "Real Time Test" option.

Step 2: Present a URL of the web-app you need to test in the dialog box. After that, select any configuration for browser and operating system of your choice & hit 'Start'.

Step 3: After the VM is launched and operable. You can perform testing on your web-app for finding bugs. If a bug gets revealed, then you need to click on the Bug icon from the left panel for capturing a screenshot of the same. We have highlighted that option with yellow in the below image.

Step 4: After a screenshot is captured, you can annotate any issue or a task with an in-built image editor. Once you are done highlighting the bug, click on the button that says "Mark as Bug".

Step 5: After clicking on "Mark as Bug" button a form would open up. Fill the fields as per your requirement.

You can select the Issue type.

You can set the priority of the bug.
You can assign the bug to a colleague by populating the field 'Assignee'.
You can post a relevant summary for keeping your bug inventory well organized.
You also get to post a description to help relate the cause of the issue or the task.

At the bottom of the form you will find a check button "Send to Microsoft Teams". By default, it would be checked if you have already integrated LambdaTest with Microsoft Teams. This button when checked, will push the screenshot directly to your workspace after you click on "Create Bug". You can uncheck the button if you do not wish to share a particular screenshot with your team.

Note: After you click on "Create Bug", you will be able to observe it being successfully marked through a single click effort. You will get prompt messages on top of your Virtual Machine indicating the progress of bug logging. After few seconds you will be notified with a prompt message "Bug successfully marked" indicating that the screenshot has been pushed to your Microsoft Teams workspace.
