Access published report URL programatically

[johnsonkandul-github]

Requirement -

I have maven java project integrated with selenium-testng-cucumber. I have a use case where i want capture dynamically generated cucumber.io report which looks like this - https://reports.cucumber.io/reports/a3b6bbca and send it in an email.

I run all selenium test using mvn test -with few parameters and the pom calls testng.xml file which calls the runner class.

Is there any way i can get hold of this generated via code like getURL() method which would give the latest URL after all tests are completed and i can send that email to my team via code. Please advise and help.

It is currently not possible to access this url programmatically. You'd have to grep your test output for it. Something like:

mvn test | tee log.txt
grep log.txt 'report.cucumber.io'

Do note that the online reports are provided by SmartBear. And while there is a market for commercial tools built for the Cucumber audience, that market probably isn’t big enough for a company like SmartBear. So I can not say what will happen next.
