What a single test case looks like

Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require mateffy/pest-plugin-html-reports

Usage

Command Line

Generate a static HTML report from a test results JSON file:

php artisan test-report:generate

# With some extra options
php artisan test-report:generate \
    --input=storage/app/pest_test_results.json \
    --output=public/pest-report.html \
    --title="My Project Test Results" \
    --project-path=/path/to/your/project \
    --repository=your-username/your-repo

Environment Variables

You can configure the output directory and filename of the JSON report by setting the following environment variables:

• TEST_REPORT_DIR: The directory where the JSON report will be saved. Defaults to storage/framework/testing/reports.
• TEST_REPORT_FILENAME: The filename of the JSON report. Defaults to report-{{date}}-{{id}}.json. The {{date}} and {{id}} placeholders will be replaced with the current date and a unique ID.

How it works

1. A Pest test is run
2. A pest plugin is used to listen to the test completion event and loads the required data from the Pest internals
3. The data is then stored as a JSON file per run in the storage/framework/testing/reports directory
4. Depending on your configuration, a HTML report is automatically generated and also stored in the storage/framework/testing/reports directory.
5. Later on, the artisan test-report:generate command can be used to generate a static HTML report from any of the historic JSON files
