Reporters

Mocha

Please consult the official documentation for Mocha to see how to use reporters. Below is an example of how to add the reporter provided by this package. It assumes you are using the default .mocharc.js file for configuration.

module.exports = {
  spec: 'test/*.test.js',
  reporter: 'd2l-test-reporting/reporters/mocha.js',
  reporterOptions: [
    'reportPath=./d2l-test-report.json', // optional
    'reportConfigurationPath=./d2l-test-reporting.config.json' // optional
  ]
};

Inputs

• reportPath: path to output the reporter to, relative to current working directory. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-report.json.
• reportConfigurationPath: path to the D2L test reporting configuration file for mapping test type, experience and tool to test code. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-reporting.config.json.

Playwright

Please consult the official documentation for Playwright to see how to use reporters. Below is an example of how to add the reporter provided by this package. It assumes you are using the default playwright.config.js file for configuration.

import { defineConfig, devices } from '@playwright/test';

export default defineConfig({
  reporter: [
    [
      'd2l-test-reporting/reporters/playwright.js',
      {
        reportPath: './d2l-test-report.json', // optional
        reportConfigurationPath: './d2l-test-reporting.config.json' // optional
      }
    ],
    ['list']
  ],
  testDir: '../',
  testMatch: '*.test.js',
  projects: [{
    name: 'firefox',
    use: devices['Desktop Firefox'],
    testMatch: 'firefox/*.test.js'
  }]
});

Warning

Currently the merge-reports command is not fully supported due to a lack of browser/launcher information preservation with the blob reporter. If you are using a GitHub matrix run this may result in partial data showing in the reporting dashboard as it becomes available.

Inputs

• reportPath: path to output the reporter to, relative to current working directory. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-report.json.
• reportConfigurationPath: path to the D2L test reporting configuration file for mapping test type, experience and tool to test code. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-reporting.config.json.

@web/test-runner

Please consult the official documentation for @web/test-runner to see how to use reporters. Below is an example of how to add the reporter provided by this package. It assumes you are using the default web-test-runner.config.js file for configuration.

import { defaultReporter } from '@web/test-runner';
import { reporter } from 'd2l-test-reporting/reporters/web-test-runner.js';

export default {
  reporters: [
    defaultReporter(),
    reporter({
      reportPath: './d2l-test-report.json', // optional
      reportConfigurationPath: './d2l-test-reporting.config.json' // optional
    })
  ],
  files: 'test/component-*.test.js',
  groups: [{
    name: 'group',
    files: 'test/group/component-*.test.js'
  }]
};

Inputs

• reportPath: path to output the reporter to, relative to current working directory. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-report.json.
• reportConfigurationPath: path to the D2L test reporting configuration file for mapping test type, experience and tool to test code. Not required. Defaults to ./d2l-test-reporting.config.json.

Configuration

To have the test type, experience and tool mapped to test code, a D2L test reporting configuration file is required when using one of the reporters provided in this package.

Below are examples of how to create the config file. Note that the type field will end up lowercase in the report.

Please see Automated Testing Definitions on confluence for the list of test types that should be used when creating the D2L test reporting configuration file.

{
  "type": "UI Visual Diff",
  "experience": "Experience",
  "tool": "Tool",
}

{
  "type": "UI E2E",
  "overrides": [
    {
      "pattern": "tests/account-settings/**/*",
      "experience": "Administration",
      "tool": "Account Settings"
    },
    {
      "pattern": "tests/announcements/**/*",
      "experience": "Teaching & Learning",
      "tool": "Announcements"
    },
    {
      "pattern": "tests/rubrics.test.js",
      "experience": "Assessment",
      "tool": "Rubrics"
    }
  ]
}
