Format test reports

Results on the Tests tab are parsed from test reports specified in the Report Paths setting in Run and Run Tests steps. Test reports must be in JUnit XML format to appear on the Tests tab, because Harness parses test reports that are in JUnit XML format only.

For information about code coverage reports and viewing reports on the Artifacts tab, go to Code Coverage.

Tools with built-in JUnit XML output

Here are some Harness YAML examples for tools that produce JUnit XML output by default.

C, C++

You can use the --output-junit command with CTest.

              - step:
type: Run
identifier: test
name: Test
spec:
shell: Sh
command: |-
mkdir build
cmake -S . -B build
ctest --test-dir build --output-junit out.xml
reports:
type: JUnit
spec:
paths:
- /harness/build/out.xml

Java - Gradle

This example runs Gradle tests with Test Intelligence.

              - step:
type: RunTests
identifier: Run_Tests_with_Intelligence
name: Run Tests with Intelligence
spec:
args: gradle test --tests
buildTool: Gradle
enableTestSplitting: true
language: Java
reports:
spec:
paths:
- "/harness/results.xml"
type: JUnit
runOnlySelectedTests: true

PHP

              - step:
type: Run
identifier: test
name: Test

Python

              - step:
type: Run
identifier: test
name: Test
spec:
shell: Sh
command: |-
. venv/bin/activate
mkdir /harness/test-results
pytest --junitxml=harness/test-results/junit.xml
reports:

Ruby - Cucumber

              - step:
type: Run
identifier: test
name: Test
spec:
shell: Sh
command: |-
bundle check || bundle install
mkdir -p /harness/cucumber
bundle exec cucumber --format junit --out /harness/cucumber/junit.xml
reports:
type: JUnit
spec:
paths:
- /harness/cucumber/junit.xml

JUnit converters, formatters, and plugins

If your test tool doesn't automatically produce test results in JUnit XML format, there are JUnit converters, formatters, and plugins available for all major languages. Some examples of conversion tools and corresponding Harness YAML are provided below.

C# - .NET Core, NUnit

              - step:
type: Run
identifier: test
name: Test
spec:
shell: Powershell
command: |-
cd dotnet-agent/TestProject1
wget -UseBasicParsing https://dot.net/v1/dotnet-install.ps1 -o dotnet-install.ps1
.\dotnet-install.ps1
dotnet build

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nunit/nunit-transforms/master/nunit3-junit/nunit3-junit.xslt -o nunit3-junit.xslt

"C:/Program Files (x86)/NUnit.org/nunit-console/nunit3-console.exe" dotnet-agent/TestProject1/bin/Debug/net48/TestProject1.dll --result="UnitTestResults.xml;transform=nunit3-junit.xslt"
reports:

Clojure

Go

You can use the go-junit-report tool.

              - step:
type: Run

type: JUnit
spec:
paths:
- report.xml

spec:
args: test -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true -DfailIfNoTests=false
