Hi,
Here is a brief description of what we are doing and what we are looking for.
We have setup a Jenkins Job to
- Get sources from HG-repository
- Instrument the sources with Clover
- Build the "clovered" war
- Run JUnit tests on clovered war, gathering the code coverage data
- Deploy the clovered war to another (Linux-) machine, transferring clover db and traces there as well
- Run Webtests (using Robot Framework and Selenium) on clovered war, gathering the code coverage data
- Getting the clover db and traces back to the Jenkins machine
- Generating Reports on Jenkins machine
Everything is working fine so far, till we want to summarize and aggregate the reports produced by these various tools. What we want to have as output after the job completion would be an automatically generated email with following data:
- JUnit Tests Total/Failed <-- data comes from surefire plugin responsible for running JUnit tests in Jenkins, but it is also available in Clover reports
- Webtests Total/Failed <-- data comes from Selenium/Robot Framework, Clover knows nothing about that, right?
- Total Code Coverage <-- data comes from Clover
- Branch Code Coverage <-- data comes from Clover
As you see, all the needed data is somehow available and can be displayed in Jenkins. But it is scattered over different locations and is present in different formats. Some reports are even generated on the fly by the corresponding plugins.
The big question now is how to get this data easily to generate a readable high level email. Is there a way to access this data directly without parsing some xml or html sources or other hacks which would be not necessarily accurate, hardly maintainable and not so trivial to implement? Does Clover posts the summary data to some environment variables which can be accessed directly from Jenkins (to put them into the ext-email plugin, for example)?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Michael
