Setting up and running the test

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://gitlab.com/ordinal43/newman-automation-test
   cd newman-automation-test

2. Start Docker Engine
3. Inside your repo just run this:

   docker compose up

4. Let the test run, then extract the results from inside the container to anywhere you want:

   docker cp postman-tests-newman:/app/report.html </your/target/directory>/report.html

5. IMPORTANT: Don't forget to shut down the docker compose by running:

   docker compose down

   If you don't do this the container will remain active and store the previous state.
