What's included 🚀Setup 🛠️Sample 🖥️Contribute 🧬License 📓


What's included 🚀

  • Flexible JUnit parser with wide support
  • Supports nested test suites
  • Blazingly fast execution
  • Lighweight
  • Rich build log output

This action processes JUnit XML test reports on pull requests and shows the result as a PR check with summary and annotations.

Based on action for Surefire Reports by ScaCap

Setup

Configure the workflow

name: build
on:
  pull_request:

jobs:
  build:
    name: Build and Run Tests
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout Code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build and Run Tests
        run: # execute your tests generating test results
      - name: Publish Test Report
        uses: mikepenz/action-junit-report@v4
        if: success() || failure() # always run even if the previous step fails
        with:
          report_paths: '**/build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml'

Inputs

Input Description
report_paths Optional. Glob expression to junit report paths. Defaults to: **/junit-reports/TEST-*.xml.
token Optional. GitHub token for creating a check run. Set to ${{ github.token }} by default.
test_files_prefix Optional. Prepends the provided prefix to test file paths within the report when annotating on GitHub.
exclude_sources Optional. Provide , seperated array of folders to ignore for source lookup. Defaults to: /build/,/__pycache__/
check_name Optional. Check name to use when creating a check run. The default is JUnit Test Report.
suite_regex Optional. Regular expression for the named test suites. E.g. Test*
commit Optional. The commit SHA to update the status. This is useful when you run it with workflow_run.
fail_on_failure Optional. Fail the build in case of a test failure.
require_tests Optional. Fail if no test are found.
require_passed_tests Optional. Fail if no passed test are found. (This is stricter than require_tests, which accepts skipped tests).
include_passed Optional. By default the action will skip passed items for the annotations. Enable this flag to include them.
check_retries Optional. If a testcase is retried, ignore the original failure.
check_title_template Optional. Template to configure the title format. Placeholders: {{FILE_NAME}}, {{SUITE_NAME}}, {{TEST_NAME}}.
summary Optional. Additional text to summary output
check_annotations Optional. Defines if the checks will include annotations. If disabled skips all annotations for the check. (This does not affect annotate_only, which uses no checks).
update_check Optional. Uses an alternative API to update checks, use for cases with more than 50 annotations. Default: false.
annotate_only Optional. Will only annotate the results on the files, won't create a check run. Defaults to false.
transformers Optional. Array of Transformers offering the ability to adjust the fileName. Defaults to: [{"searchValue":"::","replaceValue":"/"}]
job_summary Optional. Enables the publishing of the job summary for the results. Defaults to true. May be required to disable Enterprise Server
detailed_summary Optional. Include table with all test results in the summary. Defaults to false.
annotate_notice Optional. Annotate passed test results along with warning/failed ones. Defaults to false. (Changed in v3.5.0)
follow_symlink Optional. Enables to follow symlinks when searching test files via the globber. Defaults to false.
job_name Optional. Specify the name of a check to update
annotations_limit Optional. Specify the limit for annotations. This will also interrupt parsing all test-suites if the limit is reached. Defaults to: No Limit.
Common report_paths

  • Surefire: **/target/surefire-reports/TEST-*.xml
  • sbt: **/target/test-reports/*.xml

Increase Node Heap Memory

If you encounter an out-of-memory from Node, such as

FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap limit Allocation failed - JavaScript heap out of memory

you can increase the memory allocation by setting an environment variable

- name: Publish Test Report
  uses: mikepenz/action-junit-report@v4
  env:
    NODE_OPTIONS: "--max_old_space_size=4096"
  if: success() || failure() # always run even if the previous step fails
  with:
    report_paths: '**/build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml'

Action outputs

After action execution it will return the test counts as output.

# ${{steps.{CHANGELOG_STEP_ID}.outputs.total}}

A full set list of possible output values for this action.

Output Description
outputs.total The total number of test cases covered by this test-step.
outputs.passed The number of passed test cases.
outputs.skipped The number of skipped test cases.
outputs.failed The number of failed test cases.

PR run permissions

The action requires write permission on the checks. If the GA token is read-only (this is a repository configuration) please enable write permission via:

permissions:
  checks: write

Additionally for security reasons, the github token used for pull_request workflows is marked as read-only. If you want to post checks to a PR from an external repository, you will need to use a separate workflow which has a read/write token, or use a PAT with elevated permissions.

Example

name: build
on:
  pull_request:

jobs:
  build:
    name: Build and Run Tests
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout Code
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: Build and Run Tests
        run: # execute your tests generating test results
      - name: Upload Test Report
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
        if: always() # always run even if the previous step fails
        with:
          name: junit-test-results
          path: '**/build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml'
          retention-days: 1

name: report
on:
  workflow_run:
    workflows: [build]
    types: [completed]
    
permissions:
  checks: write

jobs:
  checks:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Download Test Report
        uses: dawidd6/action-download-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: junit-test-results
          workflow: ${{ github.event.workflow.id }}
          run_id: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.id }}
      - name: Publish Test Report
        uses: mikepenz/action-junit-report@v3
        with:
          commit: ${{github.event.workflow_run.head_sha}}
          report_paths: '**/build/test-results/test/TEST-*.xml'

This will securely post the check results from the privileged workflow onto the PR's checks report.
