How to set up and validate locally

  1. Visit /admin/runners and note that Upgrade available and Upgrade recommended sections display.
  2. Visit /admin/application_settings/ci_cd#js-runner-settings and uncheck Automatically keep runners up to date with official runner release versions.
  3. Visit /admin/runners and note that the two sections now do not display.

GraphQL, run this query in your local /-/graphql-explorer:

query {
  runners {
    nodes {
      upgradeStatus
    }
  }
}

With the setting enabled you should get upgradeStatus values, and with it disabled, you should get null values.
