How to generate mocha test case report and show using Jenkins?

Question

I am doing mocha unit testing for my JavaScript functions. I am running mocha in a browser not using Node. I am using require.js to load files.

When I do mocha.run() it shows reports in the browser.

Now I want to make a Jenkins job to display the report.

So how do I generate the report file so that I can provide it to Jenkins?

Answer 1

Run the command

$ mocha ./test.js --reporter mocha-junit-reporter --reporter-options ./test-results.xml

For docker file use below command

CMD ["mocha", "./test.js" , "--reporter", "mocha-junit-reporter", "--reporter-options","./test-results.xml"]

Both command will do the same. test-results.xml file be generate in the folder .

Answer 2

Running the command:

$ npm install mocha-junit-reporter --save-dev

Will generate an XML file that you can give to Jenkins
