Marc Guillemot closed WT-252:
-----------------------------
Fix Version: future versions
Resolution: Fixed
(1) and (3) are now implemented and (2) is partially implemented. A new issue
could be opened to extend current implementation of (2) when needed, but I
close this issue now.
> Simplify and extend report file
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: WT-252
> URL: http://webtest-community.canoo.com/jira/browse/WT-252
> Project: WebTest
> Type: Task
> Versions: 2.1
> Reporter: Marc Guillemot
> Assignee: Marc Guillemot
> Fix For: future versions
> Attachments: CAPE_ReportMods.zip

> Standard report mode generates a xml file and saves all received responses in
> the same directory. This works fine but...
> 1) report format should be simplified
> for instance
> <step>
> <parameter name="description" value="Enter the application"/>
> <parameter name="label" value="login"/>
> <parameter name="taskName" value="clickLink"/>
> <result>
> <completed duration="1668"/>
> </result>
> ...
> could be simplified in something like
> <step taskName="clickLink" description="Enter the application"
> status="completed" duration="1668">
> <parameter name="label" value="login"/>
> making xslt selectors easier to write
> 2) Additional information could be provided in the report like:
> - failure cause (more readable than stack trace - which should still be
> provided -)
> - step locations
> - unevaluated property values
> - javascript warnings & errors
> 3) it doesn't scale very well
> the result of each single test is appended to the result file (what requires
> complete parsing each time) producing huge result files for larger test
> suites.
> A solution could be to create a subdirectory per <webtest> wich could contain
> the xml result file as well as all received responses. This would imply
> modification in the generation of the html reports but would bring more
> flexibility: possibility to simply delete all results of a single <webtest>,
> to add the results of an other one, ...
> Such changes wouldn't impact user of the standard WebTest stylesheet for
> report generation but could cause problem to the one who have customized the
> reports. Depending of the number of persons impacted different ways can be
> followed:
> - just perform the switch when it's ready, users of customized xslt can
> upgrade once they've adapted their reports
> - provide the current report generator separately (for instance on the
> community site)
> - maintain both report modes
> Comments are welcome.
