What’s New

Visual Studio Code users can now re-run CircleCI jobs with SSH, through either the integrated terminal, or a dedicated remote development window. You can automatically open an SSH connection within the terminal, or use a remote window to work on a CircleCI remote machine as if it was a VS Code workspace, which allows you to browse and view files easily, as well as take advantage of supported extensions.

For more details, see the Discuss post (including a quick demo), or the docs on VS Code Marketplace.

What’s New

Fail fast reduces wasted time and helps you optimize credit usage.

Configure your testing jobs to stop executing shortly after finding the first test failure, even in jobs where parallelism is enabled.

What’s New

The CircleCI VS Code extension is now generally available. This extension provides an interface to visualize and manage CircleCI pipelines directly from VS Code. It also offers contextual help when creating, modifying, and editing CircleCI YAML configuration files.

By making existing CircleCI features available in VS Code and facilitating configuration file editing, the extension reduces context switching for CircleCI users (i.e. between the code editor and the browser).

Head to the VS Code Marketplace to view the full list of capabilities and download the extension for free.
