Características

• New Licensing Mechanism
  • You can now log into the JetBrains Account from TeamCity and choose a server license to activate. Once connected, TeamCity will automatically receive updates for all server and agent licenses, meaning you will no longer need to manually enter your license codes for any additional agents or server subscription updates.
  • The new mechanism does not impact existing licensing or purchase policies and is entirely free, regardless of your server license type (including free-tier Professional servers). It benefits all TeamCity users by linking your server instance to the JetBrains account, enabling server administrators to receive timely email notifications about critical security updates.
• Custom Location for Versioned Settings
  • When you enable synchronization on the Versioned Settings page in your project settings, you can now specify a custom location for your remotely stored Kotlin DSL scripts and XML settings.
  • This flexibility is especially beneficial for teams working with monorepos. It allows multiple standalone TeamCity projects to target the same repositories without conflicts, by storing project settings in different custom directories instead of the default .teamcity folder.
  • This feature also enables you to organize the versioned settings of all your projects in a single repository. This streamlined approach simplifies DSL script maintenance and enhances security by keeping configuration files separate from your main codebase.
• Store Server Configuration Files in the Version Control - Starting with this version you can store the contents of your server's Data_Directory/config directory in an external repository. This setup allows you to view and investigate the complete history of server edits, and easily restore these configuration files should they ever become corrupted.
• VCS Intergration Enhancements
  • New GitHub Checks Webhook Trigger - This release extends the collection of build triggers with a new trigger designed exclusively for GitHub-facing build configurations set up via TeamCity GitHub App connections. The new trigger is an all-in-one solution that implements a two-way GitHub-TeamCity integration: TeamCity configuration runs a build for all pushes, no matter how frequently they occur, and communicates the build result status back to GitHub. With this trigger in place, you no longer need to configure the standard VCS trigger or Commit Status Publisher.
  • Non-Recursive Submodule Checkout
    • The Submodules setting of Git VCS roots allows you to choose whether TeamCity should check out submodule repositories referenced by your main repo. The "Checkout" option corresponds to the recursive checkout process, making TeamCity fetch the entire hierarchy of repositories.
    • The new "Non-recursive checkout" option added in this version allows you to limit the depth of submodule hierarchy by 1. In this mode, TeamCity checks out only those submodules directly referenced by the main repository. Lower-level repositories referenced by submodules are ignored.
  • Security Enhancement for TeamCity Connections
    • Added the new Enable unique callback/redirect URL setting to the following TeamCity connections:
      • Azure DevOps OAuth 2.0.
      • Bitbucket Server/Data Center.
      • GitHub App (manual).
      • GitHub Enterprise.
      • GitLab CE/EE.
      • JetBrains Space (manual).
    • This setting adds a unique string to callback/redirect URLs required to configure OAuth integration with version control systems. Using unique URLs prevents attackers from implementing a malicious authentication server that mimics a real one - the technique used in potential mix-up attacks that trick client applications into leaking VCS authentication codes.
• Upload SSH Keys from the Create Project Page - When you create a new project from an SSH URL, TeamCity shows a list of available SSH keys. Starting from this version, you can upload new keys directly from this page.
• Sakura UI: Problems Page Redesign - The Project Home Page has been overhauled to simplify the user experience and facilitate build failure investigation and resolution workflows.
• Build Runner Updates
  • Bootstrap Steps - You can now add build steps that run right after a build starts, before source files are checked out on an agent. This enhancement allows you to perform preliminary setup, such as preparing a required directory hierarchy or making sure the required files in the checkout directory are not locked by another process.
  • NUnit and NAnt Runners Deprecation
    • This release introduces an updated NUnit runner that, compared to the legacy runner, does not allow you to select a .NET Runtime or .NET Framework version. If needed, use the Additional command line parameters field to specify these settings. In addition, the updated runner no longer supports outdated NUnit 2.x.x versions.
    • In this release, both updated and legacy runners are fully functional and available from the Build Steps page.
    • The NAnt runner is being deprecated. Unlike NUnit, it has no updated counterpart and will only be available via a separate Marketplace plugin once unbundled.
• Miscellaneous Changes
  • The list of statistic values reported by TeamCity now includes the AllTestsDuration value.
  • The database connection setup wizard that pops up during the first TeamCity server launch now installs the following JDBC drivers depending on the selected database type:
    • MySQL database file: mysql-connector-j-8.3.0.jar.
    • MS SQL server: mssql-jdbc-12.6.0.jre8.jar and sqlserver12-win-auth.jar for authentication.
    • PostgreSQL: postgresql-42.7.1.jar.
  • The backslash character (\) is now the default escape symbol that allows you to use special characters in feature branch specifications. This symbol was commonly recommended as an escape symbol in TeamCity documentation and support tickets.
  • TeamCity now supports Perforce depots mapped to multiple workplace locations (the ditto mapping).
  • The VCS Labeling build feature now allows you to specify a string that should be written to the description field of Perforce labels.
  • TeamCity metrics set now includes four more experimental metrics that allow you to measure the number of tasks that carry out version settings synchronization.
    • executors_versionedSettingsUpdate_activeTasks.
    • executors_versionedSettingsUpdate_completedTasks.
    • executors_versionedSettingsUpdate_poolSize.
    • executors_versionedSettingsUpdate_queuedTasks.
  • The new build_queue_incompatible metric allows you to track the number of builds that are not compatible with any of the currently available TeamCity agents (including existing cloud profiles).
