This action intended to help you with the setup of allurectl in your workflow.

What is allurectl

allurectl is a CLI wrapper of Allure Testops API performing the operations for upload of the test results, launches and projects management on Allure Testops side.

Prerequisites

  1. You need to have Allure Testops instance with trial or commercial licence up and running.
  2. You need to create API token which will be used for the authentication. To create tokens, proceed to your Allure Testops profile.
  3. You need to have a project created in Allure Testops to which you are going to upload the test results.

Usage

To upload the test results to Allure Testops please use following instructions in your workflow.

Use the action into your workflow and setup the action

      - uses: allure-framework/setup-allurectl@v1
        with: 
          allure-endpoint: https://allure.testops.url
          allure-token: ${{ secrets.ALLURE_TOKEN }}
          allure-project-id: <PROJECT_ID>
  1. allure.testops.url is the URL of your Allure Testops instance without additional context paths, e.g. https://allure.testops.url
  2. ${{ secret.ALLURE_TOKEN }} is the personal API token created in your profile of Allure Testops. You need to save API Token under /settings/secrets/actions as a new secret with name ALLURE_TOKEN in your GitHub repository and use it as the reference to the created secret – ${{ secret.ALLURE_TOKEN }}. Having this parameter saved as plain text in the workflow is a bad idea that will compromise API token and could lead to the data loss. Please avoid this.
  3. <PROJECT_ID> is the ID of a project to which you are sending the test results.

Use allurectl to upload the test results to Allure Testops

      - run: allurectl watch -- <test execution command>
        env: 
          ALLURE_RESULTS: <path/to/test-results>

where

  1. <test execution command> is the command for triggering the tests execution, e.g. ./gradlew clean test
  2. <path/to/test-results> is the path to the directory with test results files, e.g. build/allure-results

      - uses: allure-framework/setup-allurectl@v1
        with: 
          allure-endpoint: https://ALURE_Testops_URL
          allure-token: ${{ secrets.ALLURE_TOKEN }}
