How to set up and validate locally

  1. Make sure to have a working runner https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/configuration/macos_setup.html#set-up-macos-runners
  2. Make sure to setup a CI configuration file. To make testing this simple, setup a pipeline with just one jobs like so:
job_1:
  script: echo hello
  1. Navigate to the pipelines page and run a pipeline (CI/CD => Pipelines => Click run pipeline button at the top right)
  2. Go to the specific pipeline by clicking on it in the pipelines page
  3. Click on a job in your pipeline
  4. On the job page, hit the retry button
  5. The page will reload and you will see on the right the is running
  6. Wait for the job to finish
  7. Notice that the job finishes and the pipeline status on the right updates but the jobs stays running (thats the bug!)
  8. If you are on this branch, the job updates properly! 🎉
