View test results

View your test results on the Grid’s Builds Dashboard

After running your tests on BrowserStack, you can view results for the same from the Builds Dashboard.

The Grid’s build dashboard allows you to view the tests that you have executed on Automation Grid. Not only can you view the results of the tests, but you can also debug the tests using the different logs that are accessible from there.

Build view in builds dashboard

The dashboard shows you a list of builds that have run through your organization’s account and has the following features.

• Sidebar: Enables quick access to all your builds. The sidebar also displays meta information such as number of sessions, status of sessions, and project name.

• Build tags: Add a custom build tag to your build using the buildTags capability.

• Builds filter: Filters your builds by the user, project, framework, status, or build tags. As you apply filters, the dashboard URL changes, enabling you to share filtered views with other team members.

• Global search: Searches for projects, builds, and sessions by their name or IDs.

• Build name: Shows the build name and project name.

• Build meta: Provides useful information about the build, such as, build status, build duration, number of parallels used, build ID, and the name of the user who executed the build. The build status can be any of the following:
  • COMPLETED: If the status of all test sessions in the build is completed.
  • RUNNING: If the status of one or more test sessions is running.
  • FAILED: If one or more test sessions in the build had failed.
  • Timed Out: If the status of one or more test sessions is timed out.

• Status: Shows different statuses of your test sessions. The BrowserStack status represents a session state (RUNNING, ERROR, OR TIMED OUT) on the Grid.

• Build level filters: Filter sessions in a build by user, spec status, device, or OS.

Session view in builds dashboard

After you click a particular session in the build view, you will be taken to the session details view of the dashboard. The session details view has the following features.

1. Session capabilities: Shows a well-formatted view of the capabilities that you supplied in your script/suite. These are visible by default and are searchable using the browser’s default find feature.

2. Filters: Allows you to filter builds similar to the build view.

3. Sidebar: Select a build from the list of builds available in the left sidebar.

4. Session name: Displays the spec name. Click Build to return to the builds view.

5. Session meta: Provides helpful information about the session, such as Browser, Duration, Session ID, timestamp, and the user’s name who executed the session.

6. Session video: Captures the recording of the test as it happens in the session. Use this recording to go to a precise point in time when an error occurred and debug.

7. Logs tab: Select Selenium Logs tab to view detailed logs. These logs show the steps executed in the test or the error message captured when the build failed.
