Allure http client

Wrapper for allure-server http client for NodeJS in Typescript. Can be used for working with allure-server and generating allure XML from allure-server JSON data.

Description

Repository contains Runtime module which handles http layer, and Session module which wraps Runtime and provides concise API for tests.

Example

For Jasmine you can simple inject allure-client as custom reporter:

base-spec.ts

  const Configuration = require("allure-client").Configuration;

  // setup some configurations
  Configuration.baseUrl = "http://localhost:3000";
  Configuration.baseDir = "build/allure-results";

  // create Session object (it will automatically generate unic UUID for further operations)
  const session = await Session.create();

  jasmine.getEnv().addReporter({
    suiteStarted: async function (suite) {
      await session.startSuite(suite.fullName);
    },
    specStarted: async function (spec) {
      await session.startTest(spec.description)
    },
    specDone: async function (spec) {
      const status = getTestcaseStatus(spec.status);
      if (status !== 'passed') {
        await session.endTest(status);
      } else {
        await session.endTest(status, getTestcaseError(spec));
      }
    },
    suiteDone: async function (result) {
      await session.endSuite();
    },
    jasmineDone: async function () {
      // after all tests done, you should call writeToXML() method
      // it will automatically pull collected data in JSON format
      // and write it in local directory as XML structure
      // which can be handled be allure-cli
      await session.writeToXML();
    }
  });

// util functions
function getTestcaseStatus(status): 'skipped' | 'passed' | 'failed' {
    if (status === 'disabled' || status === 'pending') {
        return 'skipped';
    } else if (status === 'passed') {
        return 'passed';
    } else {
        return 'failed';
    }
}

function getTestcaseError(result) {
    if (result.status === 'disabled') {
        return {
            message: 'This test was ignored',
            stack: ''
        };
    } else if (result.status === 'pending') {
        return {
            message: result.pendingReason,
            stack: ''
        };
    }
    return result.failedExpectations
        ? result.failedExpectations[0]
        : {
            message: 'No failure expectations found.',
            stack: ''
        };
}

Configuration

Configuration for module consists of:

• Configuration.baseUrl - allure-server uri
• Configuration.baseAuth - allure-server basic auth (optional)
• Configuration.baseDir - directory where allure-client will store XML and attachments for Allure-Cli (default - ./allure-results)

Note: Configuration.baseUrl should be initialized before calling any Session or Runtime methods;

Session API

• Create new Session
  • Entry point for Session, should be called to get Session object.
  • sample:

    const session = await Session.create();

• Start new suite
  • starts new test suite
  • parameters:
    • name: string - suite name
    • timestamp: number - operation time
      • default value - Date.now()
  • sample:

    await session.startSuite('My Suite Name');

• End suite
  • ends current test suite
  • parameters:
    • timestamp: number - operation time
      • default value - Date.now()
  • sample:

    await session.endSuite();

• Start test case
  • starts new test case in currrent test suite
    • parameters:
      • name: string - test case name
      • timestamp: number - operation time
        • default value - Date.now()
    • sample:

      await session.startTest('My Test Name');

• End test case
  • ends current test case
    • parameters:
      • status: string - test case status
        • possible values:
          • broken
          • failed
          • passed
          • skipped
      • error: Error - error object (optional)
      • timestamp: number - operation time
        • default value - Date.now()

• Start test step
  • starts new test step in current test case
    • parameters: * name: string - test step name * timestamp: number - operation time * default value - Date.now()
      • sample:

        await session.startStep('My Test Name');

  • ends test step in current test case
    • parameters: * status: string - test step status * possible options: * failed * passed * timestamp: number - operation time * default value - Date.now()
      • sample:

        await session.endStep('passed');

• Write to XML
  • pop's accumulated session data from server and writes it to local storage
