Hi Shaaf, Since I am unable to publish my ant target in your blog, I have put the question on stackoverflow, here is the link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2060944/ant-target-generate-empty-suite-xml-file let me know if you can provide any help.

Thanks,

@Anu Hey Anu, Its not correct that the TESTS-TestSuites.xml should be empty. It is the xml file that forms the basis of the report. I cant see that you have put in your target here. But please check that all your tests run fine and if they do then you have the right include name e.g.

I have selenium test framework using JUnit. I have very similar ant targets. My problem is when I open the index file there is no data in it. I check individual xml files respect to tests, sure enough they have all the information with proper error tags etc. I don't have a suite that runs all the test, each test run individually (looks like you are doing the same). In command line I get the following msg, wonder not having a suite is the issues (because *TestSuite.xml doesn't have any data. How do i resolve this issue if possible. Thank You in advance. here is the command line message I get, [echo] running JUnit Report [junitreport] Processing C:\..\reports\TESTS-TestSuites.xml to C:\DOCUME~1\..\LOCALS~1 \Temp\null1095537812 [junitreport] Loading stylesheet jar:file:/C:/../apache-ant-1.7.1/lib/ant-junit.jar!/org/apache /tools/ant/taskdefs/optional/junit/xsl/junit-frames.xsl [junitreport] Transform time: 766ms here is my target

Thanks Shaaf, that report looks good. Downloaded Ant and TestNG so will start playing around now, but from the looks of things Ant will be easier for me to implement.

But that report you posted looks hot!

Hi Jason,
I havnt worked with TestNG that much but still…

I think both the reports are triggered through ant. Nothing will complicate it that much. I would choose the one I am comfortable with If I were you as both reports are very similar or perhaps identical.

Try looking at the following link
http://testng.org/test-report/junit-noframes.html
Its similar to what the Junit report looks like. Cant find a sample that I could show you.

Thanks for the article, very helpful for a newbie like me.

Just a quick question. Which is better for reporting, JUnitReport or TestNG? I see people are using the two together, but I wwould like a more simple setup with a focus on reporting on the test runs.

I want basic knowledge about Ant. It is only a reporting tool?
Can it only be used with JUnit?

We have been working on a framework built on top of Selenium called Tellurium. Groovy + Java + Selenium + JUnit+ TestNG + data driven testing = Tellurium.

If you have some time, give it a try and give us some feedback.

Thanks,
Vivek
