Programatically export test run results to HTML using COM

[jrussell]

I am able to run a Project Test Item from a COM (C#) application.  The challenge I have is getting the results from the Project Test Item.  I am able to receive the status of the run(OK, Warning, Error), but I would like to get access to the logs from the run.  I would like to display these results in HTML format.

I would like to programmatically export the latest test results to HTML.  I know how to do it via TestComplete UI, but I would like to do this via COM interface.

Is this relating to TestComplete MSTest or TCUnitTest unit tests?

This is related to TestComplete

This relates to running TestComplete Script Unit tests and Test Project Items.

You can get the name of the log by calling

IntegrationObject.GetLastResultDescription().LogFileName

It will always point to a xml file called RootLogData.dat

Parse this xml and look for the Prp tag with the attribute name="filename". In the attribute value you will find the name of the log file. Something like this: ="{D7603EDA-C8B8-4006-9D57-F034297D444A}"

This log file is a xml file as well. Now parse this xml and write your desired html code. Every Node tag represents a message line.

Are you using MSTest or TCUnitTest to interact with your application?

If you see TestComplete Command Line, the parameter /ExportLog has option to export to HTML

I don't believe what command line is relevant for calling TestComplete via COM from C#

If we were using the command line, the parameter /ExportLog would work perfectly.  Unfortunately we are not using the command line.  The command line does not give us enough control over the execution of the tests.

We are running tests in the Execution Plan section , and the Script section.

How are you connecting to your COM application?
