How to get spec name

[CK]

How do I get the current spec that is being executed ? I am using jasmine2 framework.

[Gregg Van Hove]

Reporters, including [custom reporters](http://jasmine.github.io/edge/custom_reporter.html), are given metadata about the specs and suites being executed.

Hi Gregg,

As suggested from you I have tried to get all these verbose info by using my own reporter. but when I am running my simple test file, I am getting below output in console.

Test File:

describe('Desc1',function(){
    it('Test1',function(){
        expect(true).toBe(true);
    })
    describe('Desc2',function() {
        it('Test2', function () {
            expect(true).toBe(true);
        })
    })
    it('Test3',function(){
        expect(true).toBe(true);
    })
    afterEach(function(){
        var myReporter = {
            specDone: function(result) {
                console.log('Spec FullName: ' + result.fullName);
                console.log('Spec Result: ' + result.status);
            },
        }
        jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(myReporter);
    })
})

Output in Console:

.Spec FullName: Desc1 Test1

Spec Result: passed

.Spec FullName: Desc1 Desc2 Test2

Spec Result: passed

Spec FullName: Desc1 Desc2 Test2

Spec Result: passed

.Spec FullName: Desc1 Test3

Spec Result: passed

Spec FullName: Desc1 Test3

Spec Result: passed

Spec FullName: Desc1 Test3

Spec Result: passed

I am not sure why its displaying Test1 once, Test2 Twice and Test3 thrice in editor console. I was expecting only one entry for each Test in console.

Please help me.

You are seeing multiple log lines because the reporter is getting registered in the `afterEach`, which makes a new one for each spec that is run. You want to register the reporter once outside of any specs.

Hi Gregg,

Thanks for your help. I made the suggested changes and its working fine now.

I got stuck at one place where my requirement is to get the suite hierarchy.

Desc1

 Desc2

  It('A')

  It('B')

 Desc3

  It('C')

Desc4

I want to show the output results in console with same kind of indentation. I am not sure how to get the suite hierarchy( which is parent is which is child).

Would you please suggest any workaround/solution for my problem.

Your reporter will receive `suiteStarted` and `suiteDone` events for each suite. Any `suiteStarted` or `specStarted` events received in between the Started and Done for a given spec indicate descendants of that suite. With that information you should be able to get the indentation you want.

Hope this helps. Thanks for using jasmine!
