      - iress/junit-slack-notification#v1.0.8:
          artifacts: "**/*.xml"
          SLACK_TOKEN: "xoxb-xxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
          SLACK_CHANNEL: "#junit_bot_testing"

or

steps:
  - label: Run unit tests
    key: my-unit-test
    command: ...
  - label: Run Verification tests

    command: ...
    
  - label: ":slack: :memo: to #junit_bot_testing"
    depends_on: my-test

  minor_version: 0
display_information:
  name: JUnit Summary Bot
  description: JUnit run summary information
  background_color: "#000000"
features:
  bot_user:
    display_name: JUnit Summary Bot
    always_online: false
oauth_config:
  scopes:
    bot:
      - chat:write
      - chat:write.public
settings:
  org_deploy_enabled: false
  socket_mode_enabled: false
