Explore using prettytable to print the test result summary.

My conclusion - We can use prettytable to print test result summary in our framework ✅

My findings after using prettytable to create a Test Result Summary table:

• I was able to create a table to post the test result summary, this is how it looked:

  

• The log file test_example_form.log displayed the test result summary table, but the table needs to be at the end of the test. The log file displayed the table in the middle.

• The consolidated_log.txt did not display the test result summary though. The table might need to be converted to a string before it can be viewed in the .txt file, I need to check this.

• We might need to create tables for: Failure Summary, Exceptions & Artifacts(to show where the screenshot is).

• This table creation & print needs to happen in pytest after hook, this might make the table be printed at the end of the test.

[!NOTE] I have added the development branch details to this issue.

I have completed adding a prettytable Test result summary.

This summary will be printed when there is a failure. It will print the test name and the list of scenarios failed in that test. No prettytable summary will be printed if all the tests pass.

I implemented this by replacing pytest's default terminalreporter plugin with a CustomTerminalReporter plugin I created. This custom plugin will use prettytable to print the summary.

I have implemented this change for the UI tests alone. I will work on adding this to the Mobile tests too. Implementing it for API test can only be done after the API framework starts using the core_helpers/logging_objects.py module rather than than utils/result.py module.

I have pushed my changes to the branch

My changes will print the failure summary using prettytable.

This is how the Failure summary is printed currently:

This is how the Failure summary will be printed using prettytable:

The new summary will list the scenarios failed in a test, this will be more useful than the plain Assertion errors thrown currently.
