(Feature) Send email after test is complete

[ms-carterk]

I want to be able to walk away from my desk while the test runs. Is it possible to integrate a way to send an email after the test is done?

You could build this fairly easily in node env. See the integration section in the docs where you can do this...

backstop('test')
  .then(() => {
    // test successful
  }).catch(() => {
    // test failed
  });

const gulp = require("gulp"); const backstop = require("backstopjs"); const nodemailer = require("nodemailer");

const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({ service: "gmail", // e.g., 'gmail' auth: { user: "sending@email.com", pass: "password", }, }); gulp.task("backstop-test", function () { return backstop("test") .then(() => { console.log("Test successful"); const mailOptions = { from: "sending@email.com", to: "to@email.com", subject: "BackstopJS Test Successful", text: "The BackstopJS test was successful.", html: "

The BackstopJS test was successful.
