Keptn 0.7.2

Keptn 0.7.2 enhances the 0.7.1 release with great UX/UI improvements; especially for working with Quality Gates. This release introduces a new API endpoint for triggering a quality gate evaluation and the Bridge shows more details about the evaluation result.

The key announcements of Keptn 0.7.2:

🚀 Improved UX for Quality Gates: This release introduces an /evaluation endpoint that brings the same user-experience to the API as used from the Keptn CLI. Hence, you can now easily trigger a quality gate evaluation based on the parameters start, end, and timeframe for a specific service in a particular project/stage.

✨ Focused UI enhancements for Quality Gates: The evaluation tile that displays the quality gate evaluation result has been improved in various ways. First, the Heatmap in this tile now highlights the currently selected evaluation result. Second, it also displays the evaluation results that were used for comparisons giving the user more insights into the quality gate.

🎉 Usage statistics for Keptn installation: If you want to get more insights into your Keptn installation, feel free to deploy the statistics-service v0.1.1 from the Keptn sandbox. This service provides usage statistics based on events and service executions.

⭐ Spec update: The Keptn CloudEvent sh.keptn.events.evaluation-done has a new field called comparedEvents that lists the evaluations that were taken for comparison. See sh.keptn.events.evaluation-done for more details.

Last but not least, many thanks to the community for all their contributions!
