How to have a Bamboo build with a manual IM request

Summary

How to run an interactive GINT test as part of a Bamboo build. User will get an instant message when the interactive test runs. The response to the IM request will determine the outcome of the build (or at least this aspect of the build).

Steps

Make sure you have 2 IM user ids, one for automation to send IMs from and one to receive IMs
You will need the appropriate IM configuration that depends on your IM server - the example below users GTALK
Make sure you have the unnamed link installed
Select your build -> Configuration
Add a task - select a GINT task
Select INLINE for script location
Copy/paste the following script
Save
Run build
- a positive response (y) to the IM request will result in the test being successful
- a negative response (n) to the IM request will result in a failed test
