This is the influxdb reporter plugin for TestCafe. Generated this project using the generator-testcafe-reporter
In the project where you use the reporter:
- TestCafe tests
- Dotenv as devDependency
- Set the required environment variables in the
.env
or.yml
npm install --save-dev testcafe-reporter-influxdb
Install the library local in the project you want to use the reporter by using the tarball
gulp build
npm pack
npm install --save-dev ../testcafe-reporter-influxdb/testcafe-reporter-influxdb-1.0.0.tgz
When you run tests from the command line, specify the reporter name by using the --reporter
option:
testcafe chrome 'path/to/test/file.js' --reporter influxdb
When you use API, pass the reporter name to the reporter()
method:
testCafe
.createRunner()
.src('path/to/test/file.js')
.browsers('chrome')
.reporter([{ name: 'influxdb', output: `output/test/influxdb.txt` }]) // <-
.run();
Don't forget to set the following environment variables of the Influx database in the project you use this reporter! Locally via .env
or via .yml
:
variables:
INFLUX_HOST: "localhost"
INFLUX_PORT: "8086"
INFLUX_DB_NAME: "testresults"
INFLUX_USERNAME: "root"
INFLUX_PASSWORD: "root"
Check out the typedefs.js
to see what data is accessible from the TestCafe test runs.
Export the release version of your application via the CI_RELEASE_VERSION
variable. Add this script to your pipeline yaml and find it back in your InfluxDB!
- git fetch --all --tags
- export CI_RELEASE_VERSION=$(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
Within this reporter you can create a generic collection of your test metadata; feature and risk categories for example. This is how you can categorize your fixture or test:
fixture`The user sees the home screen after a successful login`
.meta({ feature: FeatureCategory.LOGIN, risk: RiskCategory.SMOKE })
This metadata is saved in the database, in order to filter or group on it across multiple applications. You can create a dashboard per feature category for example!
