How to submit additional custom fields, links and artifacts for your test automation runs and threads to Testmo.

Testmo and our CLI tool support custom fields, links and artifacts. So you can include additional useful fields and references for your test runs, threads and tests. This topic explains how to add fields and references for test runs and threads.
Submitting fields for tests
Also see our separate topic on submitting test fields.
For test runs and threads you can submit additional details directly from the command line using our CLI tool. Including such details can be useful in various situations:
Including a link to your CI/CD pipeline run
Including a link to the relevant Git commit
Linking to artifacts such as build files or screenshots
Including fields about the build environment
Adding version numbers, log output or build reports
The testmo command makes it very easy to include custom fields, artifacts and links for your runs and threads. To do this, you just specify a resource JSON file when creating, submitting or completing runs and threads. You could create such a JSON file yourself, but the testmo tool includes convenient commands to build such files from the command line:
This will create a new testmo-resources.json file in the current directory with the specified resources. You can then include these resources for runs or threads by specifying the file with any of our run and thread commands:
The testmo command line tool will then send all these resources together with your run or thread and display all submitted information on your run page in Testmo.
