Hi All,

A new version of Continua CI has been uploaded and is available from Continua CI Downloads. The latest stable version of Continua is 1.9.1.336.

Changes in 1.9.1.336

Python action for running python scripts, modules or commands.
Python VirtualEnv action for creating a virtual environment for running python commands under
Pip Download, Install and Wheel actions for python package management
PyTest action for python unit testing.

Enhancement: PowerShell action updated to support version PowerShell Core versions 6 and 7.
Enhancement: Wait for completion option added to PowerShell action.

Enhancement: Added new Process.OutputEncoding and Process.OutputCodePage agent properties which can be used to control the default output encoding when running command line processes on each agent.
Enhancement: Added new Process Output Encoding properties (Encoding Name and Code Page) to the Environment tab of all actions which run a command line. This can be used to override the default output encoding for each action.

Enhancement: New default error message patterns to match errors in output from DotNet Build, Publish, Test and Run actions.
Enhancement: Added list of Latest Warnings to build log after action output.
Enhancement: The output from actions that run a command line process is now wrapped in a “Output” message group in the build log. This is for easier access to Latest Errors and Latest Warnings.

Enhancement: Git repositories now allow a blank username. This is required when using a personal access token as the password for some services such as TFS/DevOps.
Enhancement: Dotnet Build, Pack, Publish, Restore and Test actions now allow a solution file to be entered for the project path.
Enhancement: The ‘Browse’ button on file input boxes in action settings now lists files from the head of the default branch rather than the tip changeset for each repository.

Fix: The list of latest errors messages shown in build log after action output did not include errors picked up using error message patterns.
Fix: The build variable value is now used rather then the default configuration variable when expanding the Report Filename field.
Fix: The poll URL for manual repositories changed to ignore any id sent in the post request content. Previously a id sent by TFS web hook would override the id in the URL.
Fix: Correction to default for Maximum Environment Variable Length field on MSBuild action.

Note: You will need to update your agents after upgrading the server to this build.
