Reporting

Generate detailed test execution reports with Allure.

Neodymium generates HTML reports using Allure. These reports offer detailed insights into test execution, including all test steps, error screenshots, page source HTML, and test-specific data.

We have extended the basic Allure reports with new features, such as:

Test data added as JSON to the test report.
Steps showing the new URL if it changes.
GIF or video recordings of each test (if configured).

To generate a report, simply run:

mvn allure:serve

For detailed information, consult the Allure documentation and the provided example report.

Setup

Add the following lines to your project’s pom.xml to include Allure.

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>io.qameta.allure</groupId>
            <artifactId>allure-maven</artifactId>
            <version>2.12.0</version>
            <configuration>
                <reportVersion>2.27.0</reportVersion>
                <resultsDirectory>${project.basedir}/allure-results</resultsDirectory>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

To enable all Allure report features, including @Step() annotations, you must add the following configuration to the plugins section of your pom.xml file.

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${surefire.version}</version>
    <configuration>
        <forkCount>1</forkCount><!-- parallel test execution -->
        <testFailureIgnore>true</testFailureIgnore>
        <argLine>
            -javaagent:"${settings.localRepository}/org/aspectj/aspectjweaver/${aspectj.version}/aspectjweaver-${aspectj.version}.jar"
        </argLine>
        <systemPropertyVariables>
            <allure.results.directory>${project.build.directory}/allure-results</allure.results.directory>
            <selenide.reports>${project.build.directory}/selenide-results</selenide.reports>
        </systemPropertyVariables>
    </configuration>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
            <artifactId>aspectjweaver</artifactId>
            <version>${aspectj.version}</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>

Attention: if you do not add the dependencies above to your pom.xml, @Step() annotations will not work.

Attention: The Allure results are collected into the project base directory and are not removed by mvn clean by default. For complete Allure functionality and to streamline results management, Surefire is required. When adding Surefire, update the Allure results directory to the one specified by Surefire.
