NAME¶

TAP::Formatter::JUnit - Harness output delegate for JUnit output

SYNOPSIS¶

On the command line, with prove:

  $ prove --formatter TAP::Formatter::JUnit ...

Or, in your own scripts:

  use TAP::Harness;
  # What TAP output did we save from a previous run, with
  # PERL_TEST_HARNESS_DUMP_TAP=tap/
  my @tests = glob("tap/*.t");
  # Convert the TAP to JUnit
  my $harness = TAP::Harness->new( {
      formatter_class => 'TAP::Formatter::JUnit',
      merge => 1,
  } );
  $harness->runtests(@tests);

DESCRIPTION¶

This code is currently in alpha state and is subject to change.

"TAP::Formatter::JUnit" provides JUnit output formatting for "TAP::Harness".

By default (e.g. when run with prove), the entire test suite is gathered together into a single JUnit XML document, which is then displayed on "STDOUT". You can, however, have individual JUnit XML files dumped for each individual test, by setting "PERL_TEST_HARNESS_DUMP_TAP" to a directory that you would like the JUnit XML dumped to. Note, that this will also cause "TAP::Harness" to dump the original TAP output into that directory as well (but IMHO that's ok as you've now got the data in two parseable formats).

Timing information is included in the JUnit XML, if you specified "--timer" when you ran prove.

In standard use, a "passing TODO" is treated as failure conditions (and is reported as such in the generated JUnit). If you wish to treat these as a "pass" and not a "fail" condition, setting "ALLOW_PASSING_TODOS" in your environment will turn these into pass conditions.

The JUnit output generated is partial to being grokked by Hudson (<http://hudson.dev.java.net/>). That's the build tool I'm using at the moment and needed to be able to generate JUnit output for.

ATTRIBUTES¶

testsuites

List-ref of test suites that have been executed.

xml

An "XML::Generator" instance, to be used to generate XML output.

METHODS¶

open_test($test, $parser)

Over-ridden open_test() method.

Creates a "TAP::Formatter::JUnit::Session" session, instead of a console formatter session.

summary()

Prints the summary report (in JUnit) after all tests are run.

add_testsuite($suite)

Adds the given XML test $suite to the list of test suites that we've executed and need to summarize.
