AW: [Webtest] Ant Script to Fail when Test Fails

[Marc Guillemot]

Hi Christoph,

I guess that you're scripts are well structured, meaning for instance
with a main build file and one build file per script. In this case, this
is a Ant "feature": properties set in a sub-build don't pop up.

You can use xml tasks (from
http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/) to read the results in
------------
<path id="xmltask.classpath">
  <fileset dir="the/dir/to/xmltask.jar" includes="*.jar"/>
</path>
<taskdef name="xmltask"
classname="com.oopsconsultancy.xmltask.ant.XmlTask"
classpathref="xmltask.classpath"/>

<xmltask source="${webtests.resultpath}/${webtests.results}.xml">
  <copy path="count(/summary/testresult)" property="nbWebTests"/>
  <copy path="count(/summary/testresult[@successful = 'no'])"
property="nbWebTests.failed"/>
  <copy path="count(/summary/testresult[@successful = 'yes'])"
property="nbWebTests.successful"/>
</xmltask>
<echo message="WebTests results: ${nbWebTests.successful} successful,
${nbWebTests.failed} failed (total: ${nbWebTests})"/>
<fail>
  <condition>
    <not>
         <equals arg1="${nbWebTests.failed}" arg2="0"/>
    </not>
  </condition>
</fail>

------------

I'm thinking since some time to add something for this purpose directly
in WebTest. I've now opened the issue
http://webtest-community.canoo.com/jira/browse/WT-332

Marc.

But to be able to do this, I have to decide whether a test was successful. But the Ant script states Build Successful even if tests fail. Is it possible to get a Build failed message, when a single test fails, but still to run all tests and generate the HTML output.
