Add test function code to report?

[jaquith]

Is it possible to add the mocha test function itself to the report?

For instance, given this suite:

describe('These should pass', function(){
  it('should pass', function() {
    logMessage("Just simple addition")
    expect(1+1).to.equal(2)
  })

  it('should also pass', function() {
    logMessage("Multiplication this time")
    expect(2*3).to.equal(6)
  })
})

I'm hoping to be able to extract and add

logMessage("Just simple addition")
expect(1+1).to.equal(2)

and

logMessage("Multiplication this time")
expect(2*3).to.equal(6)

to the report as part of the output for the respective test - something like what mochawesome does (but only in its non-wdio implementation).

I've been trying various wdio reporters out and haven't seen any that do that, so I'm not sure it's even a technical possibility within @wdio/mocha-framework's implementation of mocha?

Caleb,

that functionality is there. Its described in the readme.and in the test code

Rich,

thanks for writing back so quickly (again). I swear I'm not being intentionally thick, but I reread the README and tried to find the test code you're talking about - I came up empty.

If you could point me in the right direction a little more specifically I'd be very grateful.

here is a sample of the base page that I use that interacts with the wdio-html reporter

const moment = require('moment'); const mkdirp = require('mkdirp') ; const path = require('path') ;

export default class BasePage { navigateTo (path) { browser.url(path); }

logMessage(message) {
    process.emit('test:log', message);
}

takeScreenshot(message) {
    this.logMessage(message) ;
    const  timestamp = moment().format('YYYYMMDD-HHmmss.SSS') ;
    const dir = 'reports/html-reports/screenshots/' ;
    mkdirp(dir) ;
    const filepath = path.join(dir,timestamp + '.png');
    browser.saveScreenshot(filepath);
    process.emit('test:screenshot', filepath);

    return this;
}
waitForPresence(selector, timeout, invert) {
    try {
        selector.waitForExist(timeout, invert) ;
        return true ;
    } catch (ex) {
        return false;
    }
}

}

@rpii thanks Rich. But I think we're talking about different things?

The logMessage functionality works fine - that's not my question.

What I'm trying to do is add my mocha assertions themselves to the test report as part of the output. I don't see that in your code?

I would be fine referencing it explicitly if need be, something like

  it('should pass', function() {
    // add a log message to provide context in the report
    logMessage("Just simple addition")
    // also output the test code itself for transparency
    logMessage(this.currTest.code)
    expect(1+1).to.equal(2)
  })

But obviously this.currTest.code isn't what I need, just an example to try to help explain.

Am I trying to do something that isn't supported by wdio?

Sorry I misunderstood. I think its an issue with chai. It doesnt output anything for testing conditions which pass. Maybe someone needs to add that. I sure would like that.
