Hi Allen> Just to be clear: yetus is about the layer between Jenkins and the unit tests. Many Apache communities don’t bother looking at Jenkins and it’s reporting because a) it’s extremely noisy when you’re testing literally hundreds to thousands of patches a week (plus full builds!) and b) why log into something when one can have the results sent (passive vs. active)? Plus it’s much easier to run a pre-existing script across a ton of different source bases than work on integrating xyz tool into an existing source tree.
Good points. This layer between Jenkins and the unit tests seems useful. > That said, I did look at tap4j last year when I was looking to integrate >bats into Hadoop’s test framework.

You can use something like this Perl script [1] to convert the output of bats TAP to JUnit. I tested it locally and the XML looked good. It would be possible to use tap4j for that too, but I think it would be not very efficient unless you already had a JVM running or needed to integrate it with Jenkins.
