Hi folks,
as far as I remember each test generates a XML report which are
aggregated into a "WebTestOverview.xml" as prerequisite for report
generation. In the Canoo WebTest distribution the aggregation is done in
Groovy where as the M2 plugin uses plain Java and XOM.
Regarding XSLT
+) there is a XSLT to generate a JUnit XML report (for CruiseControl
integration)
+) or the example below keeps you going ... :-)
Cheers,
Siegfried Goeschl
=== START OF XSLT ===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--
Transforms WebTest overview results to a CSV file
-->
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
name,successful,starttime
<xsl:apply-templates select="overview/folder"></xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="folder">
<xsl:value-of select="@name"/>,<xsl:value-of
select="summary/@successful"/>,<xsl:value-of select="summary/@starttime"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
=== END OF XSLT ===
