Hi Raghav Sir...I m using extent report latest version "4.1.6" ...when I use the ExtentHtmlReporter in my extentdemoclass than it will auto cut "ExtentHtmlReporter" and "import com.aventstack.extentreports.reporter.ExtentHtmlReporter;" option. So, I started using the older version "4.1.2" of extent report but now after running the extentdemoclass I m only getting "Test" option in the dashboard of extentreport.html and "Steps" option is MISSING from dashboard.

Hello Sir I have implemented Rerun functionality in my Cucumber framework. I am able to generate extent report but after rerun ,its latest results are not updated in extent report . is there any way to do so ?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Archana, check if the following helps you: When rerun is performed, clear the Extent Reports object and initialize it again. This will ensure that the latest results are being reported You can use maven-surefire-plugin and configure it to delete the target directory before rerun You can use the after hook to clear the extent report after each run, so that latest run results can be updated You can try to use different reporting plugins like Allure or Cucumber HTML reporter, they might give you the flexibility to update the report You can also try to merge the rerun report with the original report using some library like extentmerger You may also want to check the configurations of Extent Report and Cucumber if they are properly set to handle rerun

hi, thanks for the video. How can I make extent report code reusable in a framework and apply to all my test cases. Also I am new to selenium and building a framework from scratch on my own through youtube videos.

Hi Ankita, you can use testng listeners and put your code for reporting in extent in testng listener functions. There is a video on that. I did not get your 2nd query. If you are using POM method, then you just need to keep creating a separate class for each web page and put the locators and functions in that class and use them in test classes.

Hi Raghav. Thanks for the video. I have a question asked in interview- what are the parameters to (or how do you) decide which framework you want to design whether it is POM, Datadriven, cucumber?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Ankit, it will depend on the needs and scenario. example: If the team using the framework is comfortable in adding new scripts for new test cases, then a DataDriven framework is the best. If the team using the framework needs option to create all tests using keywords in external files like excel then keyword or hybrid framework is the option. POM is the test design technique to store objects and test scripts separately BDD or Cucumber framework will be useful if the organizationis BDD ready. Actually most of org today implement BDD framework without understanding the real need for it. I will create a video soon to cover this.

I have a question I have three tests but only one is displayed after the test completed. Are there any reason why such is happening.

Hi Ifeoma, Pls check if you have added annotations and Also check for every test you will have to add statement to mark it as test in extent ExtentReports reports = new ExtentReports("Path of directory to store the resultant HTML file", true/false); ExtentTest test = reports.startTest("TestName");

Hi Ifeoma, you are doing extent.flush() in every test, that is the issue, Do flush() at the end, when all tests are done.

[@saquibelec208]

Hi, Can we get pdf for the extent report? If yes please provide code or link... Thanks

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Saquib Here are the steps on how to get a PDF for the Extent Report in Selenium Java: 1. Install the Extent Report library. You can install the Extent Report library from the Maven Central repository. Code snippet com.relevantcodes extentreports 4.1.9 2. Create an ExtentTest object. The ExtentTest object is the root object of the Extent Report. Code snippet ExtentTest test = new ExtentTest("My Test"); 3. Add test steps to the ExtentTest object. The test steps are the individual steps that make up the test. Code snippet test.log(LogStatus.PASS, "This is a pass test step"); test.log(LogStatus.FAIL, "This is a fail test step"); 4. Generate the PDF report. You can generate the PDF report by calling the generateReport() method on the ExtentReports object. Code snippet ExtentReports extentReports = new ExtentReports(); extentReports.attachReporter(new ExtentHtmlReporter("myreport.html")); extentReports.addTest(test); extentReports.generateReport(); This will generate a PDF report called myreport.html. Here are some additional things to keep in mind: * The Extent Report library provides a number of different reporters, including HTML, XML, and PDF. * The PDF reporter can be used to generate a PDF report of the Extent Report. * The PDF report can be opened in any PDF viewer. I hope this helps
