QA/Automated Test Report Template

Introduction

The test reporting in automation can enable further processes to be automated too. Specifically, results collection should be done by consumers that require no manual interaction to be fed with results data. Just as any other process flow, minimizing the number of input consumers is translated into immediate efficiency as the flowing data is standardized.

Test and Performance Standard Report

Performance measurements and software testing share steps in their processes but they have an important difference in the results they both provide: the performance results are expressed in scalar quantities while the testing output is expressed in a predefined set of results.

Under the premise that most of the information in a performance and a testing report is alike, being the results notation the main difference; it should be feasible to use a single report specification that accounts for the aforementioned differences.

JUnit-XML Report

The QA testing has moved towards embracing the JUnit-XML reporting standard and there is work in progress to note the required extensions to use that format with performance measurements too.

This template is WIP to be extended for the performance measurements.
