Re: Silk Performer - Jenkins - Plot Results - Data series file path issue

Additional note on this issue: 

I have attempted to define the xml file or time series data of the silkperformer test in the following method, but nothing has not been recognised in jenkins and throws me Doesn't exists error as mentioned in description, 

 

  1. Define exact result file report path where the file is created by Silkperformer during the test. **
    1. During the test observed all results file for the build is being stored in  the Scripts folder itself by creating a new folder called results. Exact path of the overviewreport.xml is \\Machinename\Scripts_POC\result\OverviewReport\OverviewReport.xml and scripts/ project file stored in \\Machinename\Scripts_POC\. 
  2. Define File name with extension from where Jenkins needs to extract result for Plot. 
    1. Also tried with definition as OverviewReport.xml and no luck. 
  3. Define the workspace directory path. 
    1. I am not able to use this path as the workspace doesn't have any files available after the completion of test, hence i cannot try this option.

5. Adding post-build actions

  • Click Add post-build action and Archive the artifacts. Then specify the Files to archive.
    In our example, we defined DemoProject/*/.
    Make sure to use the wildcards as shown here to get hold of all files in all folders, including all subfolders.

Re: Silk Performer - Jenkins - Plot Results - Data series file path issue

Hello Mihai,

 

Thanks for info. Have tried this step in my personal laptop, but getting an error while configuring the archive files itself. Attached the screenshot for your reference. 

Also, proceeded further in running test which is giving the same error as well. Error Log below, 

Script and project Path is: C:\Users\chand\Documents\Silk Performer 20.0\Projects\WebProject 

Kindly advise further.

Hi Chandrakumar Sekar,

Two things:

1. "Archive the artifacts" use - "WebProject/*/" (without '.')

2. "Plot build data"
 "Number of builds to include" - you should use  more builds, with only one you will get only a Point in the graph, in the example it used 10
 "Data series file" - "WebProject/result/OverviewReport/OverviewReport.xml"

Re: Silk Performer - Jenkins - Plot Results - Data series file path issue

Hello Mihai Virag, 

 

I tried with the solution suggested however it shows an error while configuring the archive the artifacts and as well at end of the test as well. Please find the below the logs from Jenkins, 

 

build Screenshot: Build_config_13112019.jpg

Build Output Snap:

Could not add overview report action.

Archiving artifacts‘WebProject/*/’ doesn’t match anything, but ‘’ does. Perhaps that’s what you mean?

You should use a "Source Code Management" for your project, svn or git as explained in the demo. If not, the project is not in workspace of jenkins and the archiving will not work, so jenkins is unable to copy/access results file from slave to master.

Okay. Currently, I am not using any SCM for this activity, as i have started with a POC (Proof of Concept) on integration between the Silk Performer & jenkin to enable the CI CD approach in my testing life cycle. Probably let me look for getting the Git or SVN access and configure the same to try it out further. 

 

May be will take sometime to get back with an update on this space. Appreciate your prompt response on this case, so far.

Hello Mihai, 

 

Im able to get the files stored in workspace and using the files in workspace, the plot are created in jenkins. So good to close this JIRA. 

 

But before closing this JIRa, could you please help me to understand files are getting archived and plots are created with SCM and not locally?
