When I do a simple launch testrunner (via readyapi, all test cases/ all test suites), it says:

Hi, 

 

It seems that your command-line is not correct. Please see the example from this article:

testrunner.bat -FPDF "-RJUnit-Style HTML Report" "-cmy TestCase" "c:\my projects\my-project.xml"

This command runs the my TestCase test case in your project and creates HTML files in a JUnit-style format:

    Nastya_Khovrina, thank you for the investigation.

    koen_able, have you had a chance to check this?

    Hi I tried to do this, but I don't know where to get the project xml; this is a composite project, so I don't know what to put at "c:\my projects\my-project.xml"

      Hi koen_able,

       

      I think the project xml file should be located in a project folder. As far as I understand, you should find it here:

      /home/able/jenkins/workspace/BLABLA_Test/test-automation

        HiTanyaYatskovska,

         

        I only know the settings.xml in my project directory, so i ran this command line with command prompt:

        testrunner.bat -FPDF "-RJUnit-Style HTML Report" "-cmy TestCase" "C:\software-vm3\ep-test-automation\settings.xml".

         

        This also leads to
