MSTest .trx file display using Xunit Plugin and Jenkins Piepline

Question

I'm trying to display MStest, Nunit3, Nunit2 results using Xunit Plugin and using Jenkins pipeline and have not been successful with the same. I can't find proper documentation for the Xunit Plugin and all the various required parameters for the same.

I got the following links but they don't help much https://www.cloudbees.com/blog/xunit-and-pipeline https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/xUnit+Plugin

Does anyone know how to use the Xunit Plugin for displaying mstest, nunit3 and nunit2 results in jenkins pipeline?

Following is the code I used for MStest report parsing and got errors. I'm pretty new to pipelines in Jenkins and any help / pointers are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

Following is my pipeline code

pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Copy Test Reports') {
            agent {
                node {
                    label 'test'
                    customWorkspace "C:\\jenkins\\workspace\\tests"
                }
            }
            steps {
                echo 'Hello world!'
                bat '''copy \\\\Precheck.xml .
                copy \\\\*.trx .'''
            }
            post {
                always {
                    xunit (
                        thresholds: [$class: 'FailedThreshold', unstableThreshold: '1'],
                        tools: [$class: 'MSTest', pattern: '*.trx']
                    )
                }
            }
        }        
    }
}


Error:
Missing required parameter: "thresholdMode" @ line 19, column 21.
                       xunit (
                       ^

                       xunit (

I had to do this a little differently - solution here - https://stackoverflow.com/a/60284044/9423651 — AngryDaz, Feb 18 '20 at 15:24

I ran into the same issue, though with GoogleTest reports. Adding the missing parameters to your xunit() call should do the trick:

                xunit (
                    testTimeMargin: '3000',
                    thresholdMode: 1,
                    thresholds: [$class: 'FailedThreshold', unstableThreshold: '1'],
                    tools: [$class: 'MSTest', pattern: '*.trx']
                )

'3000' and '1' being the defaults the xunit-plugin has set internally.

I had to do it a little differently with the plugin so I'm posting my solution in case it helps -

xunit(
    [MSTest(deleteOutputFiles: true,
            failIfNotNew: true,
            pattern: '*.trx',
            skipNoTestFiles: false,
            stopProcessingIfError: true)
    ])

Note, this expects that your trx files are in the root of your workspace. If they aren't you'll need to copy them into there.

Is there a reason to use xunit-plugin? I use the mstest-plugin as follows and this seem to work fine

mstest testResultsFile:"**/*.trx", keepLongStdio: true

With this command, i get this error `[MSTEST-PLUGIN] INFO processing test results in file(s) **/*.trx`. I thought perhaps MSTest is looking at wrong location. Then i gave the absolute path to the trx file, now it shows `SEVERE while listing workspace files: Expecting Ant GLOB pattern, but saw '/home/myuser/build/newapp-math/testResult.trx'`. Any iea what might be the issue ? i am using Xunit for unit testing. – Mayur Buragohain Apr 22 '21 at 17:11
