In the previous tutorial, we have seen the Integration Of Jenkins With Selenium WebDriver. In this tutorial, we show you how to generate TestNG Reports Using Jenkins.
Pre-Requisite:-
Jenkins installed and started on the computer
Implementation Steps
Step 1: Start the Jenkins server and open the browser and navigate to the localhost and the port in which Jenkins is running
Step 2: Log in to Jenkins UI
Provide a username and password and click on the Sign-in Button.
Step 3: Download and Install TestNG Results Plugin
Click on the Manage Jenkins. Choose Manage Plugins.
Step 4: Add the TestNG Report plugin
On the Plugins Page, go to the Available option
- Select the TestNG Report Plugin
- Click on Install without restart. The plugin will take a few moments to finish downloading depending on your internet connection, and will be installed automatically.
- You can also select the option Download now and Install after the restart button. In which plugin is installed after the restart
- You will be shown a “No updates available” message if you already have the TestNG Report plugin installed.
The plugin “TestNG Report” has been installed successfully.
Sometimes, the installation fails because of a network issue. You can try to reinstall it, and it should be successful.
Step 5: Restart Jenkins
Click on the checkbox “Restart Jenkins when installation is complete when no jobs are running“.
The Jenkins will be restarted. Again, login to Jenkins UI.
Step 6: Create a new project using the Maven project plugin.
- Give the Name of the project.
- Click on the Maven project.
- Click on the OK button.
In the General section, enter the project description in the Description box.
Step 7: Build Management
Go to the Build section of the new job.
- In the Root POM textbox, enter the full path to pom.xml
- In the Goals and options section, enter “clean test”
Click on the Advanced button.
Step 8: Select custom workspace
Mention the full path of the project in the directory.
Step 9: Select “Publish TestNG Results” from “Post Build Actions“
Scroll down to ‘Post Build Actions’ and click on the ‘Add Post Build Actions’ drop-down list.
Select “Publish TestNG Results“.
Enter the TestNG XML Report Pattern as “**target/surefire-reports/testng-results.xml” and click on the “Save” button.
We have created a new project “TestNGReport_Demo” with the configuration to run TestNG Tests and also to generate TestNG Reports after execution using Jenkins.
Step 10: Execute the tests
Let’s execute it now by clicking on the “Build Now” button.
Right-click on Build Number (here in my case it is #4) and click on Console Output to see the result.
Once the execution is completed, we could see a link to view ‘TestNG Results’.
Step 11: View the TestNG Report
Click on the TestNG Results. It displays the summary of the tests.
This way, we could generate TestNG Reports using Jenkins.
