MXUnitAnt Task XML Output Filename

[lbicknese]

I was wondering if was possible to specify a file name along with the outputdir for the ant task?

I would like to have multiple targets in my build file, all of which generate xml output. However, I do not want the files to get overwritten. Right now it appears that the xml output file always has the same name and I can't find anything in the docs that says it can be changed.

I know that I can update my build file to rename the file manually, but I wanted to check if there was an attribute that I was missing.

Thanks,

Luke

I don't think there is.

You might want to use an ant task to zip up your old build results and
archive them..

When I have that situation -- for example, different xml dirs for UI,
unit, and integration tests, I simply point the "outputdir" to a
different folder.

So I'll set a base property named "test.output.xml" which points to
the root folder, and then in the mxunit task I'll have:

<mxunittask ... outputdir="${test.output.xml}/@{directoryName}" ..>

Thanks Marc. That might be the easiest solution for us.

Do you use the junitreport task? and if you do, can you tell it to look in those sub-directories for the xml files with a single command?

I would like to generate all the xml output and then create a single HTML report of the results. I know this can be done if the xml files are in the same directory, but not if they are in sub-directories.

Thanks,

Luke

Try something like this, as the fileset you're passing to junit report:
<junitreport todir="${junit.out.dir.html}">
<fileset dir="${output.dir}">
<include name="**/*.xml" />
</fileset>

<report format="frames" todir="${junit.out.dir.html}"
styledir="${style.dir}" />
</junitreport>

That worked perfectly. Thanks Marc.

Excellent. Glad it worked.
