newman-reporter-junitfull-globalfix

This package aim to provide a fix for an issue with newman where sequentials calls to newman.run while using the reporter junitfull is breaking with an error:

$ node test

This bug is not in newman but in the reporter, which actually have an open PR, but since the project seems unmaintained, it is doubtful it will be fixed.

The bug come from the reporter rewriting the global variable.

This reporter will not hange anything in the output but simply rewrite global to its original value in the hook after the one used by junitfull.

Usage

Install this reporter and use it along with junitfull:

npm i -D newman-reporter-junitfull-globalfix
newman -r junitfull,junitfull-global-fix

Or in your JSON config:

"reporters": ["cli", "junitfull", "junitfull-globalfix"],
