Getting started
To run Newman, ensure that you have Node.js >= v10. Install Node.js via package manager.
Installation
The easiest way to install Newman is using NPM. If you have Node.js installed, it is most likely that you have NPM installed as well.
$ npm install -g newman
This installs Newman globally on your system allowing you to run it from anywhere. If you want to install it locally, Just remove the -g
flag.
Using Homebrew
Install Newman globally on your system using Homebrew.
$ brew install newman
Usage
Using Newman CLI
The newman run
command allows you to specify a collection to be run. You can easily export your Postman
Collection as a json file from the Postman App and run it using Newman.
$ newman run examples/sample-collection.json
If your collection file is available as an URL (such as from our Cloud API service), Newman can fetch your file and run it as well.
$ newman run https://www.getpostman.com/collections/631643-f695cab7-6878-eb55-7943-ad88e1ccfd65-JsLv
For the complete list of options, refer the Command Line Options section below.
Using Newman as a Library
Newman can be easily used within your JavaScript projects as a Node.js module. The entire set of Newman CLI functionality is available for programmatic use as well. The following example runs a collection by reading a JSON collection file stored on disk.
const newman = require('newman'); // require newman in your project
// call newman.run to pass `options` object and wait for callback
newman.run({
collection: require('./sample-collection.json'),
reporters: 'cli'
}, function (err) {
if (err) { throw err; }
console.log('collection run complete!');
});
For the complete list of options, refer the API Reference section below.
Using Reporters with Newman
Reporters provide information about the current collection run in a format that is easy to both: disseminate and assimilate.
Reporters can be configured using the -r
or --reporters
options. Inbuilt reporters in newman are: cli
, json
, junit
, progress
and emojitrain
.
CLI reporter is enabled by default when Newman is used as a CLI, you do not need to specifically provide the same as part of reporters option. However, enabling one or more of the other reporters will result in no CLI output. Explicitly enable the CLI option in such a scenario. Check the example given below using the CLI and JSON reporters:
$ newman run examples/sample-collection.json -r cli,json
For more details on Reporters and writing your own External Reporters refer to their corresponding sections below.
Command Line Options

would gracefully stop a collection run after completing the current test script.-x
,--suppress-exit-code
Specify whether or not to override the default exit code for the current run.--color <value>
Enable or Disable colored CLI output. The color value can be any of the three:on
,off
orauto
(default). Withauto
, Newman attempts to automatically turn color on or off based on the color support in the terminal. This behaviour can be modified by using theon
oroff
value accordingly.--disable-unicode
Specify whether or not to force the unicode disable option. When supplied, all symbols in the output will be replaced by their plain text equivalents.--global-var "<global-variable-name>=<global-variable-value>"

multiple times, like so:--global-var "foo=bar" --global-var "alpha=beta"
.--env-var "<environment-variable-name>=<environment-variable-value>"
Allows the specification of environment variables via the command line, in a key=value format. Multiple CLI environment variables can be added by using--env-var
multiple times, like so:--env-var "foo=bar" --env-var "alpha=beta"
.--verbose
Show detailed information of collection run and each request sent.
SSL
Client Certificates
Client certificates are an alternative to traditional authentication mechanisms. These allow their users to make authenticated requests to a server, using a public certificate, and an optional private key that verifies certificate ownership. In some cases, the private key may also be protected by a secret passphrase, providing an additional layer of authentication security.
Newman supports SSL client certificates, via the following CLI options:
Using a single SSL client certificate
--ssl-client-cert
The path to the public client certificate file.--ssl-client-key
The path to the private client key (optional).--ssl-client-passphrase
The secret passphrase used to protect the private client key (optional).
Using SSL client certificates configuration file (supports multiple certificates per run)
--ssl-client-cert-list
The path to the SSL client certificate list configuration file (JSON format). See examples/ssl-client-cert-list.json.
This option allows setting different SSL client certificate according to URL or hostname.
This option takes precedence over --ssl-client-cert
, --ssl-client-key
and --ssl-client-passphrase
options. If there is no match for the URL in the list, these options are used as fallback.
Trusted CA
When it is not wanted to use the --insecure
option, additionally trusted CA certificates can be provided like this:
--ssl-extra-ca-certs
The path to the file, that holds one or more trusted CA certificates in PEM format
Configuring Proxy
Newman can also be configured to work with proxy settings via the following environment variables:
HTTP_PROXY
/http_proxy
HTTPS_PROXY
/https_proxy
NO_PROXY
/no_proxy
For more details on using these variables, refer here.

Reporters
Configuring Reporters
-r <reporter-name>
,--reporters <reporter-name>
Specify one reporter name asstring
or provide more than one reporter name as a comma separated list of reporter names. Available reporters are:cli
,json
,junit
,progress
andemojitrain
. Spaces should not be used between reporter names / commas whilst specifying a comma separated list of reporters. For instance: :white_check_mark:-r cli,json,junit
:x:-r cli , json,junit
--reporter-{{reporter-name}}-{{reporter-option}}
When multiple reporters are provided, if one needs to specifically override or provide an option to one reporter, this is achieved by prefixing the option with--reporter-{{reporter-name}}-
. For example,... --reporters cli,json --reporter-cli-silent
would silence the CLI reporter only.--reporter-{{reporter-options}}
If more than one reporter accepts the same option name, they can be provided using the common reporter option syntax. For example,... --reporters cli,json --reporter-silent
passes thesilent: true
option to both JSON and CLI reporter.
Note: Sample collection reports have been provided in examples/reports.
CLI Reporter
The built-in CLI reporter supports the following options, use them with appropriate argument switch prefix. For example, the
option no-summary
can be passed as --reporter-no-summary
or --reporter-cli-no-summary
.
CLI reporter is enabled by default when Newman is used as a CLI, you do not need to specifically provide the same as part of --reporters
option.
However, enabling one or more of the other reporters will result in no CLI output. Explicitly enable the CLI option in
such a scenario.
| CLI Option | Description |
|-------------|-------------------|
| --reporter-cli-silent
| The CLI reporter is internally disabled and you see no output to terminal. |
| --reporter-cli-show-timestamps
| This prints the local time for each request made. |
| --reporter-cli-no-summary
| The statistical summary table is not shown. |
| --reporter-cli-no-failures
| This prevents the run failures from being separately printed. |
| --reporter-cli-no-assertions
| This turns off the output for request-wise assertions as they happen. |
| --reporter-cli-no-success-assertions
| This turns off the output for successful assertions as they happen. |
| --reporter-cli-no-console
| This turns off the output of console.log
(and other console calls) from collection's scripts. |
| --reporter-cli-no-banner
| This turns off the newman
banner shown at the beginning of each collection run. |
JSON Reporter
The built-in JSON reporter is useful in producing a comprehensive output of the run summary. It takes the path to the
file where to write the report. The content of this file is exactly the same as the summary
parameter sent to the callback
when Newman is used as a library.
To enable JSON reporter, provide --reporters json
as a CLI option.
| CLI Option | Description |
|-------------|-------------------|
| --reporter-json-export <path>
| Specify a path where the output JSON file will be written to disk. If not specified, the file will be written to newman/
in the current working directory. If the specified path does not exist, it will be created. However, if the specified path is a pre-existing directory, the report will be generated in that directory. |
JUNIT/XML Reporter
The built-in JUnit reporter can output a summary of the collection run to a JUnit compatible XML file. To enable the JUNIT reporter, provide
--reporters junit
as a CLI option.
| CLI Option | Description |
|-------------|-------------------|
| --reporter-junit-export <path>
| Specify a path where the output XML file will be written to disk. If not specified, the file will be written to newman/
in the current working directory. If the specified path does not exist, it will be created. However, if the specified path is a pre-existing directory, the report will be generated in that directory. |
HTML Reporter
An external reporter, maintained by Postman, which can be installed via npm install -g newman-reporter-html
. This reporter was part of the Newman project but was separated out into its own project in V4.
The complete installation and usage guide is available at newman-reporter-html. Once the HTML reporter is installed you can provide --reporters html
as a CLI option.
External Reporters
Using External Reporters
Newman also supports external reporters, provided that the reporter works with Newman's event sequence. Working examples of how Newman reporters work can be found in lib/reporters.
For instance, to use the Newman HTML Reporter:
- Install the reporter package. Note that the name of the package is of the form
newman-reporter-<name>
. The installation should be global if Newman is installed globally, local otherwise. (Remove-g
flag from the command below for a local installation.)
$ npm install -g newman-reporter-html
- Use the installed reporter, either via the CLI, or programmatic usage. Here, the
newman-reporter
prefix is not required while specifying the reporter name in the options.
$ newman run /path/to/collection.json -r cli,html
const newman = require('newman');
newman.run({
collection: '/path/to/collection.json',
reporters: ['cli', 'html']
}, process.exit);
Community Maintained Reporters
Several members of the Postman community have created custom reporters offering different option to output the data coming from Newman. Listed below is a selection of these but more can be found here on NPM.
Once the custom reporter NPM package has been installed either globally or locally, this can be then used with Newman in the following ways:
$ newman run /path/to/collection.json -r htmlextra,csv
const newman = require('newman');
newman.run({
collection: '/path/to/collection.json',
reporters: ['htmlextra', 'csv']
}, process.exit);
- htmlextra - This is an updated version of the standard HTML reporter containing a more in-depth data output and a few helpful extras
- csv -
This reporter creates a
csv
file containing the high level summary of the Collection run - json-summary - A Newman JSON Reporter that strips the results down to a minimum
- teamcity - A reporter built to be used with the Team City CI server
- testrail - A reporter built for Test Rail, the test case management tool
- statsd -
This reporter can be used to send the Collection run data to
statsd
and used on time series analytic tools like Grafana - confluence - Confluence reporter for Newman that uploads a Newman report on a Confluence page
- influxdb - This reporter sends the test results information to InfluxDB which can be used from Grafana to build dashboards
Creating Your Own Reporter
A custom reporter is a Node module with a name of the form newman-reporter-<name>
. To create a custom reporter:
- Navigate to a directory of your choice, and create a blank npm package with
npm init
. - Add an
index.js
file, that exports a function of the following form:
function CustomNewmanReporter (emitter, reporterOptions, collectionRunOptions) {
// emitter is an event emitter that triggers the following events: https://github.com/postmanlabs/newman#newmanrunevents
// reporterOptions is an object of the reporter specific options. See usage examples below for more details.
// collectionRunOptions is an object of all the collection run options: https://github.com/postmanlabs/newman#newmanrunoptions-object--callback-function--run-eventemitter
}
module.exports = CustomNewmanReporter
- To use your reporter locally, use the
npm pack
command to create a.tgz
file. Once created, this can be installed using thenpm i -g newman-reporter-<name>.<version>.tgz
command.
Once you're happy with your reporter, it can be published to npm
using npm publish
. This will then be made available for other people to download.
Scoped reporter package names like @myorg/newman-reporter-<name>
are also supported. Working reporter examples can be found in lib/reporters.
File uploads
Newman also supports file uploads for request form data. The files must be present in the current working directory. Your collection must also contain the filename in the "src" attribute of the request.
In this collection, sample-file.txt
should be present in the current working directory.
{
"info": {
"name": "file-upload"
},
"item": [
{
"request": {
"url": "https://postman-echo.com/post",
"method": "POST",
"body": {
"mode": "formdata",
"formdata": [
{
"key": "file",
"type": "file",
"enabled": true,
"src": "sample-file.txt"
}
]
}
}
}
]
}
$ ls
file-upload.postman_collection.json sample-file.txt
$ newman run file-upload.postman_collection.json
Using Newman with the Postman API
1 Generate an API key
2 Fetch a list of your collections from: https://api.getpostman.com/collections?apikey=$apiKey
3 Get the collection link via it's uid
: https://api.getpostman.com/collections/$uid?apikey=$apiKey
4 Obtain the environment URI from: https://api.getpostman.com/environments?apikey=$apiKey
5 Using the collection and environment URIs acquired in steps 3 and 4, run the collection as follows:
$ newman run "https://api.getpostman.com/collections/$uid?apikey=$apiKey" \
--environment "https://api.getpostman.com/environments/$uid?apikey=$apiKey"
Using Newman in Docker
To use Newman in Docker check our docker documentation.
Using Socks Proxy
When using Newman as a library, you can pass a custom HTTP(S) agent which will be used for making the requests. Here's an example of how to setup socks proxy using a custom agent.
const newman = require('newman');
const SocksProxyAgent = require('socks-proxy-agent');
const requestAgent = new SocksProxyAgent({ host: 'localhost', port: '1080' });
newman.run({
collection: require('./sample-collection.json'),
requestAgents: {
http: requestAgent, // agent used for HTTP requests
https: requestAgent, // agent used for HTTPS requests
}
}, function (err) {
if (err) { throw err; }
console.log('collection run complete!');
});

| Newman | Node | |:-----------------:|:----------:| | v3.x | >= v4.x | | v4.x | >= v6.x | | v5.x | >= v10.x |
The current Node version compatibility can also be seen from the engines.node
property in package.json
File Encoding
Newman attempts to detect file encoding for files that are provided as
command line input. However, it mostly relies on NodeJS and the underlying
operating system to do the heavy lifting. Currently, ASCII
, UTF-8
, UTF-16LE
and ISO-8859-1
are the only ones that are detection assisted.
