Run extended test job if build started from cron?

Travis CI Discussions & Feedback

Hi Everyone,

I want to run an extended test when testing is started from cron. I know I can inspect TRAVIS_EVENT_TYPE and detect cron, but I don’t know how to wire it into .travis.yml.

I think I want something like enable: if [ "${TRAVIS_EVENT_TYPE}" = "cron" ]. Or enable: if [ "${TEST_CRON}" = "yes" ] (from the code below).

How do I specify a job is to be run under cron?

Thanks in advance

Here’s a sample from .travis.yml.

include:
  jobs:
    - name: Standard job 1
      compiler: gcc
      env: TEST_STANDARD=1
    - name: Standard job 2
      compiler: clang
      env: TEST_STANDARD=1
    - name: CRON job
      compiler: gcc
      env: TEST_CRON=1
2

You should be able to use a conditional job:

    - name: CRON job
      compiler: gcc
      env: TEST_CRON=1
      if: env(TRAVIS_EVENT_TYPE) = cron
