Improve the SeleniumBase Dashboard functionality
- Combine data from the Dashboard and pytest html reports
- pytest html reports now display a pie chart when also using the Dashboard
- Also update a Python dependency:
rich==9.5.1
The SeleniumBase Dashboard:
The --dashboard
option for pytest generates a SeleniumBase Dashboard located at dashboard.html
, which updates automatically as tests run and produce results. Example:
pytest --dashboard --rs --headless
Additionally, you can host your own SeleniumBase Dashboard Server on a port of your choice. Here's an example of that using Python 3's http.server
:
python -m http.server 1948
Now you can navigate to http://localhost:1948/dashboard.html
in order to view the dashboard as a web app. This requires two different terminal windows: one for running the server, and another for running the tests, which should be run from the same directory.
Here's a full example of what the SeleniumBase Dashboard may look like:
pytest test_suite.py --dashboard --rs --headless
Pytest Reports:
Using --html=report.html
gives you a fancy report of the name specified after your test suite completes.
pytest test_suite.py --html=report.html
When combining pytest html reports with SeleniumBase Dashboard usage, the pie chart from the Dashboard will get added to the html report. Additionally, if you set the html report URL to be the same as the Dashboard URL when also using the dashboard, (example: --dashboard --html=dashboard.html
), then the Dashboard will become an advanced html report when all the tests complete.
If viewing pytest html reports in Jenkins, you may need to configure Jenkins settings for the html to render correctly. This is due to Jenkins CSP changes.
You can also use --junit-xml=report.xml
to get an xml report instead. Jenkins can use this file to display better reporting for your tests.
pytest test_suite.py --junit-xml=report.xml
