Reporters

Cli

By default CodeceptJS provides cli reporter with console output. Test names and failures will be printed to screen.

GitHub --
 ✓ search in 2577ms
 ✓ signin in 2170ms
 ✖ register in 1306ms

-- FAILURES:

  1) GitHub: register:
      Field q not found by name|text|CSS|XPath

  Scenario Steps:

  - I.fillField("q", "aaa") at examples/github_test.js:29:7
  - I.fillField("user[password]", "[email protected]") at examples/github_test.js:28:7
  - I.fillField("user[email]", "[email protected]") at examples/github_test.js:27:7
  - I.fillField("user[login]", "User") at examples/github_test.js:26:7



  Run with --verbose flag to see NodeJS stacktrace

npx codeceptjs run --stepsutput add --steps option to run command:

npx codeceptjs run --steps

To get additional information about test execution use --debug option.

npx codeceptjs run --debug

This will show execution steps as well as notices from test runner. To get even more information with more technical details like error stack traces, and global promises, or events use --verbose mode.

npx codeceptjs run --verbose

GitHub --
 register

   Emitted | step.after (I am on page "https://github.com")

Please use verbose output when reporting issues to GitHub.

Dry Run

There is a way to list all tests and their steps without actually executing them. Execute tests in dry-run mode to see all available tests:

npx codeceptjs dry-run

Output:

Tests from /home/davert/projects/codeceptjs/examples:

Business rules --
  ☐ do something
Google --
  ☐ test @123
GitHub -- /home/davert/projects/codeceptjs/examples/github_test.js
  ☐ Visit Home Page @retry
  ☐ search @grop
  ☐ signin @normal @important @slow
  ☐ signin2
  ☐ register

  Total: 3 suites | 7 tests

--- DRY MODE: No tests were executed ---

Pass --steps or --debug option as in run command to also get steps and substeps to be printed. In this mode tests will be executed but all helpers and plugins disabled, so no real actions will be performed.

npx codecepjs dry-run --debug

ℹ If you use custom JavaScript code inside tests, or rely on values from grab* commands, dry-run may produce error output.

Allure

ℹ We recommend using Allure reports on CI. Allure is one of the best open-source reporters designed to collect and show test reports in nicest way.

Allure reporter is a tool to store and display test reports. It provides nice web UI which contains all important information on test execution. CodeceptJS has built-in support for Allure reports. Inside reports you will have all steps, substeps and screenshots.

▶ Allure is a standalone tool. Please refer to Allure documentation to learn more about using Allure reports.

Allure requires Java 8 to work. Then Allure can be installed via NPM:

npm install -g allure-commandline --save-dev

Add Allure plugin in config under plugins section.

plugins: {
    allure: {
  }
}

Run tests with allure plugin enabled:

npx codeceptjs run --plugins allure

(optionally) To enable allure plugin permanently include "enabled": true into plugin config:

"plugins": {
    "allure": {
      "enabled": true
    }
}

Launch Allure server and see the report like on a screenshot above:

allure serve output

Allure reporter aggregates data from other plugins like stepByStepReport and screenshotOnFail

Allure reports can also be generated for dry-run command. So you can get the first report with no tests actually being executed. Enable allure plugin in dry-run options, and pass --debug option to print all tests on screen.

npx codeceptjs dry-run --debug -p allure

ReportPortal

Allure is a great reportin tool, however, if you are running tests on different machines it is hard to merge its XML result files to build a proper report. So, for enterprise grade reporting we recommend using ReportPortal.

ReportPortal is open-source self-hosted service for aggregating test execution reports. Think of it as Kibana but for test reports.

Use official CodeceptJS Agent for ReportPortal to start publishing your test results.

XML

Use default xunit reporter of Mocha to print xml reports. Provide --reporter xunit to get the report to screen. It is recommended to use more powerful mocha-junit-reporter package to get better support for Jenkins CI.

Install it via NPM (locally or globally, depending on CodeceptJS installation type):

npm i mocha-junit-reporter

Additional configuration should be added to codecept.conf.js to print xml report to output directory:

  "mocha": {
    "reporterOptions": {
        "mochaFile": "output/result.xml"
    }
  },

Execute CodeceptJS with JUnit reporter:

codeceptjs run --reporter mocha-junit-reporter

Result will be located at output/result.xml file.

Html

Best HTML reports could be produced with mochawesome reporter.

mochawesome

Install it via NPM:

npm i mochawesome

If you get an error like this

"mochawesome" reporter not found

invalid reporter "mochawesome"

Make sure to have mocha installed or install it:

npm i mocha -D

Configure it to use output directory to print HTML reports:

  "mocha": {
    "reporterOptions": {
        "reportDir": "output"
    }
  },

Execute CodeceptJS with HTML reporter:

codeceptjs run --reporter mochawesome

Result will be located at output/index.html file.

Advanced usage

Want to have screenshots for failed tests? Then add Mochawesome helper to your config:

  "helpers": {
    "Mochawesome": {
        "uniqueScreenshotNames": "true"
    }
  },

Then tests with failure will have screenshots.

Configuration

This helper should be configured in codecept.json

  • uniqueScreenshotNames (optional, default: false) - option to prevent screenshot override if you have scenarios with the same name in different suites. This option should be the same as in common helper.
  • disableScreenshots (optional, default: false) - don't save screenshot on failure. This option should be the same as in common helper.

Also if you will add Mochawesome helper, then you will able to add custom context in report:

addMochawesomeContext

Adds context to executed test in HTML report:

I.addMochawesomeContext('simple string');
I.addMochawesomeContext('http://www.url.com/pathname');
I.addMochawesomeContext('http://www.url.com/screenshot-maybe.jpg');
I.addMochawesomeContext({title: 'expected output',
                         value: {
                           a: 1,
                           b: '2',
                           c: 'd'
                         }
});
Parameters
  • context string, url, path to screenshot, object. See this

Multi Reports

Want to use several reporters in the same time? Try to use mocha-multi reporter

Install it via NPM:

npm i mocha-multi

Configure mocha-multi with reports that you want:

  "mocha": {
    "reporterOptions": {
      "codeceptjs-cli-reporter": {
        "stdout": "-",
        "options": {
          "verbose": true,
          "steps": true,
        }
      },
      "mochawesome": {
       "stdout": "./output/console.log",
       "options": {
         "reportDir": "./output",
         "reportFilename": "report"
      },
      "mocha-junit-reporter": {
        "stdout": "./output/console.log",
        "options": {
          "mochaFile": "./output/result.xml"
        },
        "attachments": true //add screenshot for a failed test
      }
    }
  }

Execute CodeceptJS with mocha-multi reporter:

npx codeceptjs run --reporter mocha-multi

This will give you cli with steps in console and HTML report in output directory.
