The AIO Tests Jenkins plugin provides another easy-to-use interface to report test results right after the automated tests have run, thus helping in CI. The plugin wraps the AIO public APIs to import test results from Cucumber (via cucumber.json), TestNG or JUnit result XML files. The plugin is available for all Cloud, Server and Data Center instances.

In this documentation, you’ll understand:

...

Info

AIO APIs and Jenkins plugin can be used to publish results from any framework capable of generating JUnit files like Robot/Cypress/NUnit amongst many others.

Installing the

Plugin

AIO Tests Jenkins plugin can be installed from the Jenkins marketplace as below.

...

  1. Jenkins 2.235.1 or higher

  2. Jira cloud/server/data centre instance with AIO Tests for Jira installed

Results

The plugin works in the post build actions step , after the build steps are run.
Assuming that the tests have run and a results file (Cucumber.json/Junit/TestNG/any XUnit framework which generates a JUnit XML report) has been generated, the AIO Tests plugin can be used as below to report results of cases in the report to Jira. For information on how to map cases with AIO Tests for different frameworks, please refer to Test Framework Integration.

  1. Go to project -> Configure

  2. Click on the Post Build Actions -> Select Publish Results to AIO Tests

    ...

    1. Specify the Project for which run results need to be published eg. SCRUM

    2. Choose a framework and specify the path of the file - relative to the workspace eg. /target/surefire-reports/testng-results.xml

    Info

    For frameworks other than JUnit/TestNG/NUnit/Cucumber, if results file is being generated in JUnit format, please select JUnit.

      1. The below table defines the rest of the field options:

      Field

      Details

      1

      Cycle Preference

      Select between existing and new cycle

      2

      Cycle Prefix

      In case of new cycle, Cycle prefix will be used to prefix the cycle title

      3

      Cycle Key

      If existing cycle is selected, specify AIO Tests cycle key eg. SCRUM-CY-121

      4

      Add Case

      If checked, cases not already in cycle are added, else the cases are reported as errors

      5

      Create New Run

      If checked, new run is created for each case execution, else existing run is overwritten

      6

      Create Case

      If checked and no case exists with a matching case key or automation key, a new case is created

      7

      Update BDD Case Steps [Cucumber Only]

      If checked, if the automated case steps are different from the steps in AIO Tests, then the automated steps will update the steps in the AIO Tests cases

      8

      Force Update Case

      If checked, updates case steps from steps in automaton results files. (Works for robot only)

      9

      Hide Publish Result Details

      If checked, it would hide testcase wise details

      10

      Fail build if result publishing fails

      If checked, the build result will be updated to failed, in case publishing of results to AIO Tests fails

      Pipeline

      The AIO Tests Jenkins plugin has support for being run as a pipeline task.
      For the security of API Key/Jira Password, secret text credentials can be used to avoid putting the key in plain text. Plain A plain text API Key would work as well.

      If the job is a parameterized build, the plugin supports parametrization for the project key, results file path, cycle prefix, existing cycle key, and API key fields.
