NUnit
Testmo works with any test automation tool, including the popular NUnit unit testing framework for .NET. This quickstart guide provides an overview of how to report NUnit test automation results to Testmo.
NUnit provides a feature to transform test results to JUnit-style XML files, which has become a standard format to exchange test results between tools and which Testmo also fully supports. Make sure to download the JUnit transform file published by the NUnit project.
> nunit3-console.exe YourTestAssembly.dll --result="results/test-results.xml;transform=nunit3-junit.xslt"
This will run your tests with NUnit and automatically write all test results to an XML file in the
results directory. You can also configure a different directory or specify any additional regular NUnit command line options.To submit your test results to Testmo, you simply use our cross-platform
testmo CLI tool. The CLI tool is distributed as an NPM package and is easy to install on any system. Simply install our official @testmo/testmo-cli NPM package:> npm install -g @testmo/testmo-cli
> testmo -h
Usage: testmo [options] [command]
[...]
We can now send the NUnit test results to Testmo. To do this, make sure to generate an API key in Testmo from your profile page. The API key is used to authenticate with Testmo to send the results. We can then use the
testmo CLI tool so submit our results (note that we first set the TESTMO_TOKEN variable, which the tool expects):Windows
Linux
Multiple lines
> set TESTMO_TOKEN=********
> testmo automation:run:submit --instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net --project-id 1 --name "NUnit test run" --source "unittests" --results results/*.xml
On Linux, the command line uses a slightly different syntax to set a variable:
$ export TESTMO_TOKEN=********
$ testmo automation:run:submit --instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net --project-id 1 --name 'NUnit test run' --source 'unittests' --results results/*.xml
If you want to run the command with multiple lines to make it easier to read, use the following format on Windows:
> set TESTMO_TOKEN=********
> testmo automation:run:submit ^
--instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net ^
--project-id 1 ^
--name "NUnit test run" ^
--source "unittests" ^
--results results/*.xml
And you can use the following format on Linux:
$ export TESTMO_TOKEN=********
$ testmo automation:run:submit \
--instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net \
--project-id 1 \
--name 'NUnit test run' \
--source 'unittests' \
--results results/*.xml
That's it! 🎉 This will automatically analyze the XML result file, create a new test run in Testmo, submit all tests & results and mark the run as completed. There's no need to manually create any tests, map tests or IDs or build any custom API code. Everything is handled automatically for you.
In the above example, we first launched NUnit to generate the XML file and then used our CLI tool to submit the results in a second step. As an improvement to the above example, we can ask our CLI tool to launch NUnit (
testmo then starts and waits for NUnit to finish). This has the following additional benefits:a) Capture full console output and send it to Testmo
b) Accurately measure test times
c) Record the NUnit exit code
Now that you are familiar with submitting your NUnit test results to Testmo, you might also find the following additional examples, topics and references useful for more advanced workflows.
