Reports would look more customized if it could contain company logo or product info kind of thing.
for example If automation is for a client FLIPKART then a logo of FLIPKART would make report more pro.

hi uttesh,
iam yamuna.i am doing pdf report generation for test cases. i done for testng and now i need to do for bdd can you please help me or give me suggestions for doing in bdd.

Hi Uttesh,

I have used your code to generate pdf reports and it is working properly. Problem i am facing is

Test case execution time is wrong. I have 5 test cases I am execution in 12345 order but in report it is displaying in 42351 and also displaying wrong execution time

Hi author, may i know can the pie chart sort by different mobile devices's test cases instead of all test cases of different mobile devices group together in one pie chart. Because i'm running the test case with multiple mobile devices. So if the pie chart shown one by one of each mobile devices then should be look nice. Hope you can take it in consideration and implement it in next version. I'm looking forward for your reply. Thank you.

Hi Uttesh,

I have an issue when running PDF NG Report. I try to run project by Run As TestNG, the report is exported correctly. But it's not ok when Run As Maven Test.

Here is my POM & testng files:
pomNtestng.zip

Please help me to find out the problem.
Many thanks!

Hi Uttesh,
Firstly, thank you for your post it has been very helpful for me. I have tried to run a test case with the pdfngreport library, however after I did all settings, in the different files (pom.xml, pdfngreport.properties) the test case runs correctly, but the report is not generated, even the console does not shows any information or error regarding to the report. I am using jfreechart 1.0.13, fop 2.0, pdfngreport 2.1.3 for me project. I also have run your example on my machine (pdfngreportdemo-master) and this running successful but with my project doesn't work. How can I know that over my project the library is working correctly? , Do I have some logs or something similar where I can see that everything is configure in the correct way?

Thank for your attention and I hope you can help me with this.

hi,
how can we setup to print the environment the tests are run in report
thanks.

Is there a way to embed screenshots in report or provide link ?

In my case I take screenshots on test case failure .

What's the way to configure this option ?

Hi Uttesh,

There is no issue in your code. Your PDF reporting code is very use full for me.

I have a request. Is it possible that in the PDF report the Exception summary page will not come.

In Exception summary your PDF report is giving correct result, but for us is we need to send the report to higher management with Pass, failed and Skipped results, but with out Exception Summary.

Please help

Hi Uttesh,

I am using your PDF Report generation listener, really thanks to have this contribution it helps a lot.

In pdfngreport.properties file I have enabled the selenium user configuration.

pdfreport.selenium.failed.test.screenshot.outputdir=D:/Selenium/Projects/PDFReport/FailScreenshotNew

But screenshots are not created automatically in specified folder so that in report it's not linked obviously. Please guide me to proceed further with this.

Thanks,
Kalai.

Hi Uttesh,

There is a configuration problem for running the plugin in Mac or Linux. For Linux, I changed the Constants.FORWARD_SLASH to “/” and in the report.xsl file, I changed the url(file:/{ReportLocation}/chart.png) to url(ReportLocation/chart.png).

My project currently running one test case for a large number of times, using the InvocationCount in TestNG. I just wonder if possible to retrieve the count of each test case run and present it in the PDF report.

Thanks a lot for the wonderful plugin and looking forward to future releases.

On executing with a project with another xslt report type it gives xslt error as conflicts happens and another jar file gets picked.

Solution - Just simply remove all other xslt jar file from the project referenced lib and project will start working.
