How to automatically copy and rename the MHT log generated by TestExecute?

Hello,



When TestExecute finished running a test it shows the MHT log in Internet Explorer. This MHT log is somewhere in some temp directory and has a generic name like tcResult#.mht. We need to archive that file.



Is there a way to get a copy and rename that file besides going to that temp folder in Windows Explorer and manually copying and renaming it?  Can I do it from a script or event handler so that it is automatically done after running the test cases?



Thank you,

Patricio.

    Hello Patricio,



    Hope this can help you



    Sub Main()



    Dim objShell,strLog


    Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

    strLog=objShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%temp%")

    Call aqFileSystem.CopyFile(strLog&"\tcResult1.mht", "C:\AfterChange.mht")



    End Sub

    Thank you Jack. The problem I see is that the file name changes every time. Also I would like to run this script automatically after the tests are executed.



    Regards,

    Hi Patricio,


    I suggest that you use a *.js file that would launch your "main" project suite and copy the generated file.


        //test.js

        var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");

        // The line below will remove all of the .mht files, so, after running the test.js file, you will always get the tcResults1.mht file.

        fso.DeleteFile("C:\\Users\\UserName\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\tcResults*") // specify your temp folder here

        var te = new ActiveXObject("TestExecute.TestExecuteApplication");

        var IObject = te.Integration;

        IObject.OpenProjectSuite("C:\\ProjectSuite14\\ProjectSuite14.pjs");  // here should be the path to your "main" project suite file

        IObject.RunProjectSuite();

        while(IObject.isRunning())

        {

            WScript.Sleep(100);

        }

        IObject.CloseProjectSuite();

        WScript.Sleep(1000);

        fso.CopyFile ("C:\\Users\\UserName\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\tcResults1.mht", "c:\\results.mht"); // as the first parameter, specify your temp folder here


    Run TestExecute and execute this file. The .mht file you need will be located in the "C:\" folder.

    I use the function log.saveresultsas(path,2) to store the result as mht

    In the path you can give a desired filename to store as well.

    I use the same method which Madhi has suggested:





    JScript:



    function GeneralEvents_OnStopTest(Sender)

    {

      var logFolder = "C:\\Logs\\";

      var mhtName = "log.mht";

     

      if (!aqFileSystem.Exists(logFolder))

      {

        aqFileSystem.CreateFolder(logFolder);

      }

     

      var currentdateTime = aqDateTime.Now();

     

      var dateTimeFolder = aqDateTime.GetYear(currentdateTime) + "_"

        + aqDateTime.GetMonth(currentdateTime) + "_"

        + aqDateTime.GetDay(currentdateTime) + "_"

        + aqDateTime.GetHours(currentdateTime) + "_"

        + aqDateTime.GetMinutes(currentdateTime) + "_"

        + aqDateTime.GetSeconds(currentdateTime);

     

      Log.SaveResultsAs(logFolder + dateTimeFolder + "\\" + mhtName, lsMHT);

    }





    (On a different note, how do you post code in a sensible block when you reply?)
