Enhancing the reports in Jenkins
Currently, I have a Jenkins job configured to use an ant build task to execute the testrunner.bat to run my SOAP UI tests suite and it all works. The test report information in Jenkins are pretty shal...

Hi,
I have a similar requirement as mentioned in the 1st post. I have extended the JUnitSecurityReportCollector, instantiated it and added extra info to the failures/success. The problem i am facing is with this requirement/customization :
-" Each test step that has a soap request/response should be hyper-linked to view this "
Here is snippet from my custom ReportCollector which 'tries' to achieve this.(from this post: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=20827 )
if (result.getStatus() == TestStepStatus.FAILED) {
buf.append("\t\tRequest/Response File path: <a href=\""
+ pathToFile + "\"> ShowFile </a>");
}
Now here is where the problem lies. The generated xml report file - escapes the '<' and replaces it <. (Rightly so i guess).
Snippet from generated xml report:
<failure...>... Request/Response File path: <a href="blah blah path to file"> ShowFile </a> ... </failure>
When i build the this into html report using junitreport ant task - the '>' gets escaped too in resulting html doc. The resulting html page look like attached image
I have tried the below 2 options :
- adding a CDATA section so < isnt escaped (Same Output as above)
-removed the xml < and replaced it with '<' for the particalar a href tag. (Resulting html only displaying "Show File" as a plain text. Content of <a href is completely ignored - probably as it doesn't recognize the <a tag)
I have also gone through all the numerous forum posts and blogs regarding customizing the report. (It's thanks to those that i got this far anyway!) All of them seem to mention that they want a link to screenshots or request/response - but none unfortunately explain this part/problem. Each one is centered around providing a custom JunitReportCollector to add relevant extra info.
The only probable solutions i see
- manually overriding the junit-frames.xsl (or junit-noframes.xsl) - to somehow figure out that whenever <a is encountered - create an html link. (i am not sure if this will solve the problem either)
- parse the resulting html and reverse the replacement of <,> for the relevant portion.
Has anyone else encountered this (and hopefully solved it) ? Am i missing something ? I am not too great with xslt - so am trying to figure out other ways.
Any help is MUCH appreciated!!
