testernotify

We use this script to check a custom field on our planio system and to notify users when:

• They have a ticket assigned for them to test
• They have set a ticket as ready to test, but not specified a tester

It should notify users in slack the first time it encounters a change. It should email everyone the status of their tickets nightly.

Dependencies

We use the following APIs:

• Redmine/Planio (naturally)
• Slack
• Postmark (postmarkapp.com)

The PHP version is 7.2

Installing

3. edit the .env file with your credentials
4. set up a cron to run the script as often as you like

Running the script

php testernotify.php

There are no required parameters, but you can optionally give:

option	result
-v	Runs in verbose mode, doesn't actually send messages
-n	Doesn't save state at the end of the run, so you can run the command multiple times
