About

The Junit XML Listener is a simple sbt test listener plugin that collects the results of test runs and writes them to an xml file formatted like the output of a JUnit run. This allows the test results to be displayed in any tool that can display JUnit results (e.g. Jenkins)

Requirements

• sbt 0.13.1

Installation

Add the following lines to either ~/.sbt/plugins/build.sbt (user-specific) or project/plugins/build.sbt (project-specific):

addSbtPlugin("com.alpinenow" % "junit_xml_listener" % "0.5.1")

This will add the dependency to the plugin. The next step is to configure your build to output the XML. The following will output the XML in target/test-reports:

testListeners <<= target.map(t => Seq(new eu.henkelmann.sbt.JUnitXmlTestsListener(t.getAbsolutePath)))

Note that the line as shown is enough in a *.sbt file. In *.scala files (full configuration), you must collect the result of the expression into the settings of all projects that should produce the XML output.

Examples

For a basic project template using sbt, see the simple-example project.

For using full configuration example with Build.scala, see the full-example project.

Alternatives

If your tests are written in Specs2 then you will get better results from the built in junitxml output format than from this SBT plugin.

You should add the following to your build.sbt:

testOptions in Test += Tests.Argument("junitxml")

testOptions in Test += Tests.Argument("console")

The built in JUnit XML support in Specs2 includes real test names (this project currently only reports "SuiteSelector.SuiteSelector" as the name of all tests) and test run durations (currently missing in this project).
