Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Installation

npm install --save-dev playwright-ctrf-json-reporter

Add the reporter to your playwright.config.ts file:

reporter: [
  ['list'], // You can combine multiple reporters
  ['playwright-ctrf-json-reporter', {}]
],

Run your tests:

npx playwright test

You'll find a JSON file named ctrf-report.json in the ctrf directory.

Reporter Options

The reporter supports several configuration options:

reporter: [
    ['playwright-ctrf-json-reporter', {
        outputFile: 'custom-name.json', // Optional: Output file name. Defaults to 'ctrf-report.json'.
        outputDir: 'custom-directory',  // Optional: Output directory path. Defaults to '.' (project root).
        minimal: true,                  // Optional: Generate a minimal report. Defaults to 'false'. Overrides screenshot and testType when set to true
        screenshot: false,              // Optional: Include screenshots in the report. Defaults to 'false'.
        annotations: false,             // Optional: Include annotations in the report. Defaults to 'false'.
        testType: 'e2e',                // Optional: Specify the test type (e.g., 'api', 'e2e'). Defaults to 'e2e'.
        appName: 'MyApp',               // Optional: Specify the name of the application under test.
        appVersion: '1.0.0',            // Optional: Specify the version of the application under test.
        osPlatform: 'linux',            // Optional: Specify the OS platform.
        osRelease: '18.04',             // Optional: Specify the OS release version.
        osVersion: '5.4.0',             // Optional: Specify the OS version.
        buildName: 'MyApp Build',       // Optional: Specify the build name.
        buildNumber: '100',             // Optional: Specify the build number.
        buildUrl: "https://ctrf.io",    // Optional: Specify the build url.
        repositoryName: "ctrf-json",    // Optional: Specify the repository name.
        repositoryUrl: "https://gh.io", // Optional: Specify the repository url.
        branchName: "main",             // Optional: Specify the branch name.
        testEnvironment: "staging"      // Optional: Specify the test environment (e.g. staging, production).
    }]
  ],

A comprehensive report is generated by default, with the exception of screenshots, which you must explicitly set to true.

Merge reports

When running tests in parallel, each test shard has its own test report. If you want to have a combined report showing all the test results from all the shards, you can merge them.

The ctrf-cli package provides a method to merge multiple ctrf json files into a single file.

After executing your tests, use the following command:

npx ctrf merge <directory>

Replace directory with the path to the directory containing the CTRF reports you want to merge.

Test Object Properties

The test object in the report includes the following CTRF properties:

| Name | Type | Required | Details | | ------------ | ---------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | name | String | Required | The name of the test. | | status | String | Required | The outcome of the test. One of: passed, failed, skipped, pending, other. | | duration | Number | Required | The time taken for the test execution, in milliseconds. | | start | Number | Optional | The start time of the test as a Unix epoch timestamp. | | stop | Number | Optional | The end time of the test as a Unix epoch timestamp. | | suite | String | Optional | The suite or group to which the test belongs. | | message | String | Optional | The failure message if the test failed. | | trace | String | Optional | The stack trace captured if the test failed. | | rawStatus | String | Optional | The original playwright status of the test before mapping to CTRF status. | | tags | Array of Strings | Optional | The tags retrieved from the test name | | type | String | Optional | The type of test (e.g., api, e2e). | | filepath | String | Optional | The file path where the test is located in the project. | | retries | Number | Optional | The number of retries attempted for the test. | | flaky | Boolean | Optional | Indicates whether the test result is flaky. | | browser | String | Optional | The browser used for the test. | | screenshot | String | Optional | A base64 encoded screenshot taken during the test. | | steps | Array of Objects | Optional | Individual steps in the test, especially for BDD-style testing. |

Advanced usage

Some features require additional setup or usage considerations.

Annotations

By setting annotations: true you can include annotations in the test extra property.

Screenshots

You can include base-64 screenshots in your test report, you'll need to capture and attach screenshots in your Playwright tests:

import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test'

test('basic test', async ({ page }, testInfo) => {
  await page.goto('https://playwright.dev')
  const screenshot = await page.screenshot({ quality: 50, type: 'jpeg' })
  await testInfo.attach('screenshot', {
    body: screenshot,
    contentType: 'image/jpeg',
  })
})

Supported Formats

Both JPEG and PNG formats are supported, only the last screenshot attached from each test will be included in the report.

Size Considerations

Base64-encoded image data can greatly increase the size of your report, it's recommended to use screenshots with a lower quality setting (less than 50%) to reduce file size, particularly if you are generating JPEG images.

Browser

You can include browser information in your test report. You will need to extend Playwright's test object to capture and attach browser metadata for each test:

// tests/helpers.ts
import { test as _test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
import os from 'os';

export const test = _test.extend<{ _autoAttachMetadata: void }>({
    _autoAttachMetadata: [async ({ browser, browserName }, use, testInfo) => {
        // BEFORE: Generate an attachment for the test with the required info
        await testInfo.attach('metadata.json', {
            body: JSON.stringify({
                name: browserName,
                version: browser.version(),
            })
        })

        // ---------------------------------------------------------
        await use(/** our test doesn't need this fixture direcly */);
        // ---------------------------------------------------------

        // AFTER: There's nothing to cleanup in this fixutre
    }, { auto: true }],
})

export { expect };

Replace the standard Playwright test import with the custom test fixture in your test files:

// tests/my-test.spec.ts
import { test, expect } from './helpers' // Adjust the path as necessary

test('example test', async ({ page }) => {
  // ... your test logic ...
})

The browser metadata file must be called metadata.json and contain properties name and version in the body.

What is CTRF?

CTRF is a universal JSON test report schema that addresses the lack of a standardized format for JSON test reports.

Consistency Across Tools: Different testing tools and frameworks often produce reports in varied formats. CTRF ensures a uniform structure, making it easier to understand and compare reports, regardless of the testing tool used.

Language and Framework Agnostic: It provides a universal reporting schema that works seamlessly with any programming language and testing framework.

Facilitates Better Analysis: With a standardized format, programatically analyzing test outcomes across multiple platforms becomes more straightforward.
