Bitbucket Tests now supports tracking tests from multiple branches

Jul 22, 2026 By Rajkumar Singh In Atlassian
Tracking tests on non-default branches was one of the most requested capabilities during the Bitbucket Tests (beta). We heard you, and today, we’re shipping it. Most teams don’t ship from main. Integration happens on develop, stabilisation on staging, releases cut from release. Until now, Bitbucket Tests only tracked the tests from default(main) branch, leaving the branches that actually matter invisible. Multiple branch tracking in Tests changes that.

Where Test Management Fits in a Modern CI/CD Pipeline

Where Test Management Fits in a Modern CI/CD Pipeline

Jul 22, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Ask most DevOps teams where testing lives in their pipeline and you'll get a confident answer: "It's automated, it runs on every commit." That's true, and it's also only half the story. Automated checks in CI cover a slice of quality - usually unit and integration tests - but the wider discipline of *test management* often sits outside the pipeline entirely, scattered across spreadsheets, wikis, and someone's memory.

Share packages across your workspace with internal packages

Jul 21, 2026 By Hamreet Kaur In Atlassian
We launched Bitbucket Packages to give teams one place to manage code, pipelines, and artifacts, and we’ve been expanding it ever since, first with Maven and npm, then PyPI and NuGet. Every one of those packages has shared one trait: it lives inside a single repository and inherits that repository’s permissions. Most of the time, that’s exactly what you want. But it also means sharing a package across repositories has meant granting people access to source code they never needed to see.

Scanners aren't enough. Here's the layer most teams are missing.

Jul 21, 2026 By Cloudsmith In Cloudsmith
Vulnerability scanners tell you what's wrong with what you already pulled. They don't stop a malicious package from entering your environment in the first place. A private registry with minimum release age policies adds that missing layer – packages newer than two or three days don't reach developers until the industry has had time to identify and remove malicious ones from public registries. Active campaigns like TeamPCP are targeting npm, PyPI, and Maven Central right now. The gate has to come before the scan. Cloudsmith provides that gate.

Custom deployment permissions for your environments (Beta)

Jul 20, 2026 By Gaurav Sharma In Atlassian
You shouldn’t have to grant full repository admin rights just to let an engineer or release manager trigger a deployment. To solve the all-or-nothing access problem, Bitbucket Pipelines introduces custom deployment permissions (Beta). You can now gate specific environments to authorized users and groups, ensuring safer releases and easier compliance. Left: Add users and groups to gate deployments for this environment.

Managing AI Agent Primitives Like Real Software Packages with APM and JFrog

Jul 14, 2026 By Yonatan Arbel In JFrog
AI agents are part of the modern development workflow. They write code, review pull requests, generate tests, call tools, interact with MCP servers, and help developers move faster. But behind every useful agent, there is something just as important as the model itself: the context that tells the agent how to behave. That context can include skills, prompts, instructions, hooks, commands, scripts, references, and MCP server definitions. In a small project, managing these primitives is pretty simple.
