Testmo works with any test automation tool, including the API testing platform. This quickstart guide provides an overview of how to report Postman test automation results to Testmo.
Postman comes with full support for generating JUnit-style XML files, which has become a standard format to exchange test results between tools.
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 Postman 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 Postman (testmo
then starts and waits for Postman 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 Postman exit code
Now that you are familiar with submitting your Postman test results to Testmo, you might also find the following additional examples, topics and references useful for more advanced workflows.
This will run your tests with Postman and automatically write all test results to an XML file in the results
directory. You can also use any additional standard newman
command line argument and you can learn more about the built-in junit
formatter in the .
To submit your test results to Testmo, you simply use our cross-platform 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:
We can now send the Postman test results to Testmo. To do this, make sure to 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):
