Compatibility check for custom property collectors

Hi,

it seems that ContinuaCI does not include custom property collectors in compatiblity checks for the stages.

I added a property collector to search for the path of TestExecute binary. That worked very well. I added a stage to our our test build to run the TestComplete project on the only agent that has TestExecute installed and used the property collector for the “Execute Program” task. Unfortunately the compatibiltiy checks for the agents does not check if the property collector is available on the agent and therefor all agents are marked as compatible for this stage. I had to explicitly add an agent requirement rule to check for the existence of the property collector’s value.

I’d like to see property collectors automatically checked if they are used in a task.

Our CI environment is at 1.6.0.292.

Hi Kay

Custom properties used by most actions are used in compatibility checks, however not where they are used in a free form text field (that would require parsing all the fields in a stage which would be expensive). We’ll add this to the backlog to look into.
