# JUnit test reports
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/45318) in GitLab 11.2.
|
|
|
|
Requires GitLab Runner 11.2 and above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is very common that a [CI/CD pipeline](pipelines.md) contains a
|
|
|
|
test job that will verify your code.
|
|
|
|
If the tests fail, the pipeline fails and users get notified. The person that
|
|
|
|
works on the merge request will have to check the job logs and see where the
|
|
|
|
tests failed so that they can fix them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can configure your job to use JUnit test reports, and GitLab will display a
|
|
|
|
report on the merge request so that it's easier and faster to identify the
|
|
|
|
failure without having to check the entire log.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Use cases
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Consider the following workflow:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Your `master` branch is rock solid, your project is using GitLab CI/CD and
|
|
|
|
your pipelines indicate that there isn't anything broken.
|
|
|
|
1. Someone from you team submits a merge request, a test fails and the pipeline
|
|
|
|
gets the known red icon. To investigate more, you have to go through the job
|
|
|
|
logs to figure out the cause of the failed test, which usually contain
|
|
|
|
thousands of lines.
|
|
|
|
1. You configure the JUnit test reports and immediately GitLab collects and
|
|
|
|
exposes them in the merge request. No more searching in the job logs.
|
|
|
|
1. Your development and debugging workflow becomes easier, faster and efficient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First, GitLab Runner uploads all JUnit XML files as artifacts to GitLab. Then,
|
|
|
|
when you visit a merge request, GitLab starts comparing the head and base branch's
|
|
|
|
JUnit test reports, where:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The base branch is the target branch (usually `master`).
|
|
|
|
- The head branch is the source branch (the latest pipeline in each merge request).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reports panel has a summary showing how many tests failed and how many were fixed.
|
|
|
|
If no comparison can be done because data for the base branch is not available,
|
|
|
|
the panel will just show the list of failed tests for head.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are three types of results:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Newly failed tests:** Test cases which passed on base branch and failed on head branch
|
|
|
|
1. **Existing failures:** Test cases which failed on base branch and failed on head branch
|
|
|
|
1. **Resolved failures:** Test cases which failed on base branch and passed on head branch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each entry in the panel will show the test name and its type from the list
|
|
|
|
above. Clicking on the test name will open a modal window with details of its
|
|
|
|
execution time and the error output.

## How to set it up
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
|
|
|
For a list of supported languages on JUnit tests, check the
|
|
|
|
[Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JUnit#Ports).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To enable the JUnit reports in merge requests, you need to add
|
2019-02-15 15:39:39 +05:30
|
|
|
[`artifacts:reports:junit`](yaml/README.md#artifactsreportsjunit)
|
2018-11-18 11:00:15 +05:30
|
|
|
in `.gitlab-ci.yml`, and specify the path(s) of the generated test reports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the following examples, the job in the `test` stage runs and GitLab
|
|
|
|
collects the JUnit test report from each job. After each job is executed, the
|
|
|
|
XML reports are stored in GitLab as artifacts and their results are shown in the
|
|
|
|
merge request widget.
|
|

|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
2019-02-15 15:39:39 +05:30
|
|
|
If you also want the ability to browse JUnit output files, include the
|
|
|
|
[`artifacts:paths`](yaml/README.md#artifactspaths) keyword.

### Ruby example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the following job in `.gitlab-ci.yml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
## Use https://github.com/sj26/rspec_junit_formatter to generate a JUnit report with rspec
|
|
|
|
ruby:
|
|
|
|
stage: test
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
|
|
- bundle install
|
|
|
|
- rspec spec/lib/ --format RspecJunitFormatter --out rspec.xml
|
|
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
|
|
reports:
|
|
|
|
junit: rspec.xml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Go example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the following job in `.gitlab-ci.yml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
## Use https://github.com/jstemmer/go-junit-report to generate a JUnit report with go
|
|
|
|
golang:
|
|
|
|
stage: test
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
|
|
- go get -u github.com/jstemmer/go-junit-report
|
|
|
|
- go test -v 2>&1 | go-junit-report > report.xml
|
|
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
|
|
reports:
|
|
|
|
junit: report.xml
|
|
|
|
```

### Java examples
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a few tools that can produce JUnit reports in Java.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Gradle
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the following example, `gradle` is used to generate the test reports.
|
|
|
|
If there are multiple test tasks defined, `gradle` will generate multiple
|
2019-05-30 16:15:17 +05:30
|
|
|
directories under `build/test-results/`. In that case, you can leverage regex
|
|
|
|
matching by defining the following path: `build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml`:
|
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
java:
|
|
|
|
stage: test
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
|
|
- gradle test
|
|
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
|
|
reports:
|
2019-05-30 16:15:17 +05:30
|
|
|
junit: build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml
|
2018-11-20 20:47:30 +05:30
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Maven
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For parsing [Surefire](https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/)
|
|
|
|
and [Failsafe](https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-failsafe-plugin/) test
|
|
|
|
reports, use the following job in `.gitlab-ci.yml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
java:
|
|
|
|
stage: test
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
|
|
- mvn verify
|
|
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
|
|
reports:
|
|
|
|
junit:
|
|
|
|
- target/surefire-reports/TEST-*.xml
|
|
|
|
- target/failsafe-reports/TEST-*.xml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
### C/C++ example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a few tools that can produce JUnit reports in C/C++.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### GoogleTest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the following example, `gtest` is used to generate the test reports.
|
2019-03-02 22:35:43 +05:30
|
|
|
If there are multiple gtest executables created for different architectures (`x86`, `x64` or `arm`),
|
2018-12-05 23:21:45 +05:30
|
|
|
you will be required to run each test providing a unique filename. The results
|
|
|
|
will then be aggregated together.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
cpp:
|
|
|
|
stage: test
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
|
|
- gtest.exe --gtest_output="xml:report.xml"
|
|
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
|
|
reports:
|
|
|
|
junit: report.xml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, the following tools might not work because their XML formats are unsupported in GitLab.
