how to generate report at run time from test shell
Hi,
We have a top level test which executes multiple tests.
Currently, we generate reports manually from 'test shell -> View Reports' after the test executaion.
We want to automate in creating the report once the test is finished, How can we achieve this please?
Thanks & Regards,
Raj.
you can pull reports by visiting the URL of a test, passing in the execution id
sample URL of test report:
http://<QUALI_SERVER>/Test/Report?reportId=<EXECUTION_ID>
example:
http://qs-il-lt-nattik/Test/Report?reportId=1a21798c-9d35-4d8a-960f-cbcef05156e8
as this URL is composed of the execution id, you can make an http request to this URL after being passed the execution id to pull down that report.
execution id is available as reserved variable inside testshell:
{executionDetails.ExecutionId}
the main test can't pull it's own report while it's running, but if you are calling sub tests, you can have main test pull those reports after test is done executing.
Hi Natti,
Thanks for your response.
We are running the tests from Testshell Studio on a different machine rather than server and not also not via Job Scheduler.
So where is the test report kept in the local machine please and how to access it from Test while running?
When tried to do Execution Query with Server option via Testshell studio, it say's 'no matching results found'. It looks like the report is only in the client machine.
Thanks & Regards,
Raj.
