How to set up and validate locally

  1. Add display_name under job section in .gitlab-ci.yml 
stages:
  - build
  - test

build-job:
  display_name: 'DISPLAY_NAME_1'
  stage: build
  script:
    - echo "Compiling the code..."
    - echo "Compile complete."
  manual_confirmation: "TEST abc"

unit-test-job:
  stage: test 
  display_name: 'DISPLAY_NAME_2'
  script:
    - echo "Running unit tests... This will take about 60 seconds."
    - sleep 60
    - echo "Code coverage is 90%"
  1. Display name should show instead of job name.
