Octomind CLI

A command-line interface for interacting with the Octomind API. This CLI allows you to execute tests, retrieve test reports, and manage private locations as well as environments. See API documentation

Usage

1. Install the package - npm i -g @octomind/octomind and use it directly e.g. octomind -h
2. Use the cli through npx e.g. npx @octomind/octomind -h

Output Formats

By default, the CLI provides formatted text output for better readability. Add the --json flag to any command to get the raw JSON response instead. This is useful for scripting or when you need to process the output programmatically.

Example of JSON output:

{
  "id": "826c15af-644b-4b28-89b4-f50ff34e46b7",
  "testTargetId": "3435918b-3d29-4ebd-8c68-9a540532f45a",
  "status": "PASSED",
  "executionUrl": "https://example.com",
  "testResults": [
    {
      "id": "abc-123-456",
      "testTargetId": "3435918b-3d29-4ebd-8c68-9a540532f45a",
      "testCaseId": "test-1",
      "status": "PASSED",
      "traceUrl": "https://storage.googleapis.com/automagically-traces/abc-123-trace.zip"
    },
    {

    }
  ]
}

Development

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:

pnpm install

The CLI is written in TypeScript and uses the following dependencies:

• commander: For command-line argument parsing
• axios: For making HTTP requests

To build from source:

pnpm run build
