mocha_tests

Mocha-JUnit fixture tests

These are fixture tests designed to produce test inputs for the mocha-junit parser using Mocha testing library and mocha-junit-reporter module.

The examples here can also be used as exmple for using TestArchiver with Mocha tests

Required npm modules

mocha-junit-reporter

npm install mocha
npm install mocha-junit-reporter

Runing tests and producing xml report

These reporter options are required for optimal results when using the TestArchiver

mocha fixture_suite.js \
    --reporter mocha-junit-reporter \
    --reporter-options outputs=true \
    --reporter-options useFullSuiteTitle=True \
    --reporter-options suiteTitleSeparedBy="." \
    --reporter-options testCaseSwitchClassnameAndName=True

Example configuration with Cypress

Mocha-JUnit format can be used with Cypress testing framework.

Add mocha-junit-reporter and cypress-multi-reporters to package.json devDependencies list. Example package.json config:

"devDependencies": {
    ...
    "mocha": "6.2.0",
    "cypress-multi-reporters": "1.2.1",
    "mocha-junit-reporter": "1.23.1"
}

After npm package installation, configure cypress reporter options. These settings have been verified to work with TestArchiver in production use:

"reporter": "cypress-multi-reporters",
"reporterOptions": {
    "reporterEnabled": "spec, mocha-junit-reporter",
    "mochaJunitReporterReporterOptions": {
        "mochaFile": "resultfolder/result-[hash].xml",
        "rootSuiteTitle": "Root Suite Name",
        "outputs": true,
        "testCaseSwitchClassnameAndName": true,
        "useFullSuiteTitle": true,
        "includePending": true,
        "suiteTitleSeparedBy": "."
    }
},

After cypress has completed with these settings, test result xml files should be stored in resultfolder directory. They can be imported using TestArchiver from there by using --format mocha-junit command line parameter.
