Make reporting more verbose

[garvitag...@gmail.com]

Hi,

My test suite is integrated to CI, when CI run is complete- allure report is generated in the end. Is there any way to make reporting more verbose- that can explain in layman language what is happening. Please see attached snapshot for example.

A test is sequence of steps- as i have designed , i know what is happening when i see log on console. But is there a way to add more description to console for each step that can help others to understand what is happening in test.

Thanks !!

What do you mean when you say add more description ?

You seem to be running Cucumber Tests. Here TestNG can only act as a TestRunner [ a mechanism to basically blend your feature file and your glues together and run the scenarios iteratively ]. TestNG doesnt have any role beyond that to play.

Thanks & Regards

By adding more description means- like in snapshot there are comments in green that are describing kind of user story. The snapshot attached is just a sample that came as requirement if we can also incorporate something like this with selenium. 

When my test suite is run- console displays text that i have mentioned using Reporter.log(). For simple test, its fine. For test containing many functions, is there a way that console displays comments regarding to that.

Example :

@Test

makePiechart()

{

 // select pie chart from dropdown

// select parameter 1 = company

// create chart

// assert chart labels

// assert chart title

// get tooltips

}

All this is happening in one test. How can i add these comments to console ?

Thanks !!

I believe you would need to look at a gherkin.formatter.Formatter or a gherkin.formatter.Reporter from Cucumber (I forget which exactly), implement it and then wire it in via @CucumberOptions annotation.
