Testng parser results to custom bamboo variable

Question

I want to get testng results and store them in variables, but there's no explanation what "testng parser" actually does and what I can do with it. I want to write a bash script and make use of the numbers of passed and failed tests. Is there a way to achieve this?

testng-results ignored="0" total="1" passed="0" failed="1" skipped="0"

Hello @daniel_waelti

Sorry but Bambo will not export the TestNG results to a variable or text file. For that, you will have to run the equivalent testNG class manually via a Script task, write the results to a file and feed them back to Bamboo through an "Inject Bamboo variables" task.

@Eduardo Alvarenga This is not very helpful. The information about usage of JUnit Parser is as sparse as it is for Testng Parser. I'd like to know, how to actually extract the values from the test report xml (Imho this is the purpose of this plugin, or not?).
