KYUA-REPORT-HTML(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual KYUA-REPORT-HTML(1)
NAME
kyua report-html - Generates an HTML report with the results of a test
suite run
SYNOPSIS
kyua report-html [--force] [--output path] [--results-file file]
[--results-filter types]
DESCRIPTION
The kyua report-html command provides a simple mechanism to generate HTML
reports of the execution of a test suite. The command processes a
results file and then populates a directory with multiple HTML and
supporting files to describe the results recorded in that results file.
The HTML output is static and self-contained, so it can easily be served
by any simple web server. The command expects the target directory to
not exist, because it would overwrite any contents if not careful.
The following subcommand options are recognized:
--force
Forces the deletion of the output directory if it exists. Use care,
as this effectively means a `rm -rf'.
--output directory
Specifies the target directory into which to generate the HTML files.
The directory must not exist unless the --force option is provided.
The default is ./html.
--results-file path, -s path
Specifies the results file to operate on. Defaults to `LATEST',
which causes kyua report-html to automatically load the latest
results file from the current test suite.
The following values are accepted:
`LATEST'
Requests the load of the latest results file available for the
test suite rooted at the current directory.
Directory
Requests the load of the latest results file available for the
test suite rooted at the given directory.
Test suite name
Requests the load of the latest results file available for the
given test suite.
Results identifier
Requests the load of a specific results file.
Explicit file name (aka everything else)
Load the specified results file.
See Results files for more details.
--results-filter types
The default value for this flag includes all the test results except
the passed tests. Showing the passed tests by default clutters the
report with too much information, so only abnormal conditions are
included.
Results files
Results files contain, as their name implies, the results of the
execution of a test suite. Each test suite executed by kyua-test(1)
generates a new results file, and such results files can be loaded later
on by inspection commands such as kyua-report(1) to analyze their
contents.
Results files support identifier-based lookups and also path name
lookups. The differences between the two are described below.
The default naming scheme for the results files provides simple support
for identifier-based lookups and historical recording of test suite runs.
Each results file is given an identifier derived from the test suite that
generated it and the time the test suite was run. Kyua can later look up
results files by these fields.
The identifier follows this pattern:
<test_suite>.<YYYYMMDD>-<HHMMSS>-<uuuuuu>
where `test_suite' is the path to the root of the test suite that was run
with all slashes replaced by underscores and `YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS-uuuuuu' is
a timestamp with microsecond resolution.
When using the default naming scheme, results files are stored in the
~/.kyua/store/ subdirectory and each file holds a name of the form:
~/.kyua/store/results.<identifier>.db
Results files are simple SQLite databases with the schema described in
the /usr/share/kyua/store/schema_v?.sql files. For details on the
schema, please refer to the heavily commented SQL file.
EXIT STATUS
The kyua report-html command always returns 0.
Additional exit codes may be returned as described in kyua(1).
EXAMPLES
Workflow with results files
If one runs the following command twice in a row:
kyua test -k /usr/tests/Kyuafile
the two executions will generate two different files with names like:
~/.kyua/store/results.usr_tests.20140731-150500-196784.db
~/.kyua/store/results.usr_tests.20140731-151730-997451.db
Taking advantage of the default naming scheme, the following commands
would all generate a report for the results of the latest execution of
the test suite:
explicitly-named files:
kyua report-html \
--results-file=usr_tests.20140731-150500-196784
kyua report-html \
--results-file=~/.kyua/store/results.usr_tests.20140731-150500-196784.db
