Jenkins & JUnit Integration with the API Tests

#api #javascript #testing #tutorial

In this post, we'll take a look at how to integrate API tests with Jenkins as well as add JUnit reporting with it.

Create a new freestyle test job
Add the necessary Source Code Management details (example - repository URL and Jenkins credentials)
In the build step (choose either Windows batch command or shell command), add the steps you use to run your tests locally. For example -

npm install // to install all the packages
npm test // to run your tests

In the post-build step, choose the JUnit report option and add your report path, example - test*.xml
Save changes and Build the project

You should see a successful build as well as JUnit reporting along with it, similar to this:

There you go, now you have Jenkins as well as JUnit reporting setup for your API tests 🙌

You can also clone the GitHub repo to access this code

I hope this post helped you out, let me know if you have any questions in the comments below!

Happy testing! 😄
