Outputting XML Test Reports

Note

New in version 0.2

Output test reports in junit-xml format.

This plugin implements startTest(), testOutcome() and stopTestRun() to compile and then output a test report in junit-xml format. By default, the report is written to a file called nose2-junit.xml in the current working directory. You can configure the output filename by setting path in a [junit-xml] section in a config file. Unicode characters which are invalid in XML 1.0 are replaced with the U+FFFD replacement character. In the case that your software throws an error with an invalid byte string. By default, the ranges of discouraged characters are replaced as well. This can be changed by setting the keep_restricted configuration variable to True.

Configuration [junit-xml]

always-on

Default :False Type :boolean

keep_restricted

Default :False Type :boolean

path

Default :nose2-junit.xml Type :str

Sample configuration

The default configuration is equivalent to including the following in a unittest.cfg file.

[junit-xml]
always-on = False
keep_restricted = False
path = nose2-junit.xml

Command-line options

-X DEFAULT, --junit-xml DEFAULT

Generate junit-xml output report

Plugin class reference: JUnitXmlReporter

class nose2.plugins.junitxml.JUnitXmlReporter

Output junit-xml test report to file

startTest(event)

Count test, record start time

stopTestRun(event)

Output xml tree to file

testOutcome(event)

Add test outcome to xml tree

Sample output

The XML test report for nose2’s sample scenario with tests in a package looks like this:
