EXAMPLES

Installation

NPM

npm install wdio-light-reporter --save-dev

Configuration

reporters: ['dot', ['light',{
      outputDir: './Results',
      outputFile:`demo${new Date()}`,    // html report file will be name this 
      addScreenshots: false,   // to add screenshots in report make it as true. Default is false
  }]
],

Screenshots

The Reporter does not have capability to automatically configure to take screenshots but however if manually configured, it listen to the event and attach the screenshots in the HTML report. To include screenshots in the report add below code in the afterTest() hook in the wdio conf file.

afterTest: async function (test,context,{ error, result, duration, passed, retries }) {
    if (!passed) {await browser.takeScreenshot()}
},

ResultFiles

Each run regenerates json report for each spec files, to generate combined json and HTML report, add below code in the onComplete() hook in wdio conf file

 onComplete: function (exitCode, config, capabilities, results) {
    const mergeResults = require("wdio-light-reporter/src/mergeResults"); //you can add this on top of the file
    mergeResults("./Results");
 },

If you run your test wihout any --suite option then it considers default as the suite Reporter does not works if you give multiple parameters as suites while run. wdio run wdio.conf.js --suite firstSuite - (WOKRS FINE) :)
wdio run wdio.conf.js --suite firstSuite --suite secondSuite (DOES NOT WORK) :(

Adding Context

You can use useLabel() to add context to any steps or added to include it as steps.

const { addLabel } = require("wdio-light-reporter").default;
describe("Show how to use addLabel ", () => {
  it("report will added this a steps/context in report", async () => {
      addLabel("Log Example 1 as step 1")
      console.log("Log Example 1 )
      addLabel("Log Example 2 as step 2")
      console.log("Log Example 2 )
  })
})

Updates

 reporters: ['dot', ['light',{
      outputDir: './Results',
      outputFile:"demo",    // html report file will be name this 
      addScreenshots: false,   // to add screenshots in report make it as true. Default is false
      //autoClean:false       // removed autoClean and include the same functionality as default in mergeResult function
  }]
],
