+# Enhanced CI Reporting
+
+This document describes the enhanced CI reporting system that provides detailed status tracking and notifications for e2e test runs in OpenShift CI.
+
+## Overview
+
+The enhanced CI reporting system uses the [`.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh) script to track various aspects of test execution and deployment status. Results are stored in the `SHARED_DIR` for use by OpenShift CI steps and are formatted into Slack notifications sent to the `#rhdh-e2e-test-alerts` channel.
+
+## Using reporting.sh Functions
+
+The [`.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh) script provides several functions to signal different types of results. It uses a Bash array to store statuses for multiple deployments, indexed by `CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT` (a deployment number).
+
+### Core Reporting Functions
+
+#### `save_status_deployment_namespace(deployment, namespace)`
+Records the namespace where a deployment was created.
+
+```bash
+save_status_deployment_namespace $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT $namespace
+```
+
+#### `save_status_failed_to_deploy(deployment, status)`
+Records whether a deployment failed (true/false).
+
+```bash
+save_status_failed_to_deploy $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT false  # Success
+save_status_failed_to_deploy $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT true   # Failure
+```
+
+#### `save_status_test_failed(deployment, status)`
+Records whether tests failed for a deployment (true/false).
+
+```bash
+save_status_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT false  # Tests passed
+save_status_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT true   # Tests failed
+```
+
+#### `save_status_number_of_test_failed(deployment, number)`
+Records the number of failed tests.
+
+```bash
+save_status_number_of_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT "3"
+```
+
+#### `save_status_url_reportportal(deployment, url)`
+Records the ReportPortal launch URL for test results.
+
+```bash
+save_status_url_reportportal $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT $REPORTPORTAL_LAUNCH_URL
+```
+
+#### `save_overall_result(result)`
+Records the overall test result (0 for success, 1 for failure).
+
+```bash
+save_overall_result 0  # Overall success
+save_overall_result 1  # Overall failure
+```
+
+## SHARED_DIR Integration
+
+All status information is written to files in the `SHARED_DIR` directory, which is shared between OpenShift CI steps:
+
+- `SHARED_DIR/STATUS_DEPLOYMENT_NAMESPACE.txt` - Bash array format
+- `SHARED_DIR/STATUS_FAILED_TO_DEPLOY.txt` - Bash array format
+- `SHARED_DIR/STATUS_TEST_FAILED.txt` - Bash array format
+- `SHARED_DIR/STATUS_NUMBER_OF_TEST_FAILED.txt` - Bash array format
+- `SHARED_DIR/STATUS_URL_REPORTPORTAL.txt` - Bash array format
+- `SHARED_DIR/OVERALL_RESULT.txt` - Single value
+
+The status files use bash arrays indexed by `CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT` (deployment number), except for `OVERALL_RESULT.txt` which contains a single value. These files are also copied to `ARTIFACT_DIR/reporting/` for artifact collection.
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### In Test Scripts
+
+```bash
+# Source the reporting functions
+source "${DIR}/reporting.sh"
+
+# Initialize overall result
+save_overall_result 0
+
+# Record deployment success
+save_status_deployment_namespace $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT "showcase"
+save_status_failed_to_deploy $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT false
+
+# Record test results
+if [ "${RESULT}" -ne 0 ]; then
+    save_overall_result 1
+    save_status_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT true
+else
+    save_status_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT false
+fi
+
+# Record number of failed tests
+failed_tests=$(grep -oP 'failures="\K[0-9]+' "${JUNIT_RESULTS}" | head -n 1)
+save_status_number_of_test_failed $CURRENT_DEPLOYMENT "${failed_tests}"
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+
+The system automatically handles script failures through the cleanup trap. See [`.ibm/pipelines/openshift-ci-tests.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/openshift-ci-tests.sh).
+
+## OpenShift CI Integration
+
+The reporting system integrates with OpenShift CI through:
+
+1. **Step Registry**: OpenShift CI steps can read the status files from `SHARED_DIR`
+2. **Artifact Collection**: Status files are preserved in artifacts for debugging
+3. **Slack Notifications**: Results are formatted and sent to `#rhdh-e2e-test-alerts`
+
+### The `redhat-developer-rhdh-send-alert` step
+
+The `redhat-developer-rhdh-send-alert` step is defined in the [OpenShift release repository](https://github.com/openshift/release) under [`ci-operator/step-registry/redhat-developer/rhdh/send/alert/`](https://github.com/openshift/release/tree/master/ci-operator/step-registry/redhat-developer/rhdh/send/alert). This step:
+
+- Runs as a post-step in OpenShift CI jobs
+- Reads the status files from `SHARED_DIR` that were written by the reporting functions
+- Formats the collected status information into structured Slack messages
+- Sends notifications to the `#rhdh-e2e-test-alerts` channel
+- Handles multiple deployments and their individual test results
+- Provides links to job logs, artifacts, and ReportPortal results
+
+The step is configured in job definitions to run after test execution completes, ensuring all status information is captured and reported.
+
+## Slack Notifications
+
+For nightly runs, the system automatically sends notifications to the `#rhdh-e2e-test-alerts` Slack channel. The message format includes:
+
+- **Job Header**: Job name with overall status
+- **Logs Link**: Direct link to job logs
+- **Triage Mention**: `@rhdh-ci-test-triage` for team notification
+- **Per-Deployment Status**: Each deployment shows:
+  - **Deployment Name**: e.g., `showcase-ci-nightly`, `showcase-rbac-nightly`
+  - **Deployment Status**: "deployed" status
+  - **Test Results**: "tests passed" or failure count (e.g., "2 tests failed")
+  - **Tools**: Playwright, ReportPortal, and artifacts links
+
+## File Locations
+
+- **Script**: [`.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/reporting.sh)
+- **Integration**: [`.ibm/pipelines/utils.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/utils.sh) and [`.ibm/pipelines/openshift-ci-tests.sh`](../../.ibm/pipelines/openshift-ci-tests.sh)
