BDD-JSON based Cucumber report

Using the terminal, you can create BDD-JSON based reports from Cucumber and upload them to Test Management.

Executing a Test Case with Cucumber

You can initiate an example Cucumber project with this sample code to execute a Test Case.

require 'selenium-webdriver'
driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome

Given("I visit bstackdemo website") do
  driver.navigate.to 'https://www.bstackdemo.com/'
  #sleep(5)
end

When("I click on orders") do
  driver.manage.window.maximize
  driver.find_element(:id, 'orders').click
end

Then("I should see signin page") do
  sleep(1)
  logintext = driver.find_element(:id, 'login-btn').text
  expect(logintext).to eq('LOG IN')
  puts(logintext)
end

Given('I visit wikipedia') do
  driver.navigate.to 'https://www.wikipedia.org/'
end

When('I search for BrowserStack') do
  driver.find_element(:id, 'searchInput').send_keys('BrowserStack')
  sleep(10)
end

Then('I should see BrowserStack page') do
  result = driver.find_element(:class, 'suggestion-title').text
  #header = driver.find_element(:id, 'first_heading').text
  expect(result).to eq('BrowserStack')
end

Create BDD-JSON test report with Cucumber

Cucumber by default generates a BDD-JSON based report. Run the following command to execute test run and generate BDD-JSON report.

$ cucumber --format json --out results/test-results.json

Steps to upload BDD-JSON test report

Open the project directory in the Terminal and load the variables.

export TEST_MANAGEMENT_API_TOKEN="*************28a42"
export TEST_MANAGEMENT_PROJECT_NAME="<Project Name>"
export BDD_JSON_FILE_PATH="<Report Path>"
export TEST_RUN_NAME="<Test Run Name"
Note: You can get your TEST_MANAGEMENT_API_TOKEN from the Active API Key section in the Settings of BrowserStack Test Management.

Upload the BDD-JSON test report using curl command.

curl -k -X POST https://test-management.browserstack.com/api/v1/import/results/json/bdd \
-u $TEST_MANAGEMENT_API_TOKEN \
-F project_name="$TEST_MANAGEMENT_PROJECT_NAME" \
-F "file_path=@$BDD_JSON_FILE_PATH" \
-F test_run_name="$TEST_RUN_NAME"
Note: Report upload will take a few seconds to about a minute depending on the size of your test-suite. Do not interrupt the cURL command until you get the response back.

You can also upload BDD-JSON test report with Cucumber using CI/CD.

Access the test run report from the console generated URL

After your report is successfully uploaded, you see a message similar to the following in your terminal. This message also generates a URL with "url" parameter that you can use to access your automated test run.

{"message":"File uploaded successfully.","url":"https://test-management.browserstack.com/projects/<project id>/test-runs/<test run id>","success":true}

View test run report in Test Management

  1. Log in to the BrowserStack Test Management dashboard.
  2. Select the relevant project that has the test report uploaded.
  3. Click Test Runs.
  4. Open the Test Run generated from automation test exectution.
  5. You will find all the test cases with their respective results here.
