Docs Integrations REST API Back to Testmo

Testim

Testmo works with any test automation tool, including the Testim UI and functional testing tool. This quickstart guide provides an overview of how to report Testim test automation results to Testmo.

Testim comes with full support for generating JUnit-style XML files, which has become a standard format to exchange test results between tools.

$ testim [..] --report-file results/test-results.xml

This will run your tests with Testim and automatically write all test results to an XML file in the results directory. You can also use any additional standard Testim command line arguments and you can learn more about the built-in junit reporter in the Testim documentation.

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 Testim 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):

$ export TESTMO_TOKEN=********
$ testmo automation:run:submit \
  --instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net \
  --project-id 1 \
  --name "Testim test run" \
  --source "api" \
  --results results/*.xml
See command output
Collecting log files ..
Found 1 result file with a total of 855 tests
Created new automation run (ID: 254)
Created new thread (ID: 608)
Sending tests to Testmo ..
Uploading: [|||||||||||||||||||||||||] 100% | ETA: 0s | 855/855 tests
Successfully sent tests and completed run
Marked the run as completed

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.

➡️ Bonus: Launch Testim with Testmo CLI

In the above example, we first launched Testim 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 Testim (testmo then starts and waits for Testim 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 Testim exit code

Launch Testim with CLI tool

We can ask our CLI tool to launch Testim, so we can capture the console output and more:

$ export TESTMO_TOKEN=********
$ testmo automation:run:submit \
  --instance https://<your-name>.testmo.net \
  --project-id 1 \
  --name "Testim test run" \
  --source "api" \
  --results results/*.xml \
  -- testim [..] --report-file results/test-results.xml
    ^ space!

Now that you are familiar with submitting your Testim test results to Testmo, you might also find the following additional examples, topics and references useful for more advanced workflows.
