xUnit dotnet test CLi to output to NUnit xml so that Bamboo can read the results

Question

We are starting a new .net core project and we are just setting up Bamboo to build our project and run the tests and so my question is:

Is there a way that we can use the xunit dotnet test CLi test runner to output in NUnit format?

Currently we have: "dotnet test -xml TestResults.xml" to run our tests which works great except we can't get the results in Bamboo.

Or does anyone have an alternative that would work for us?

Answer 1

For those interested, .NET Core SDK 2.0 not longer supports the -xml option, but it does support --logger which can be used to select specific output formats including MSTest (.trx), which is supported by Bamboo.

Example invocation:

dotnet test --logger "trx;LogFileName=abc.trx"

Note: abc.trx can be a relative or absolute path, including ellipsis.

Answer 2

I have created a plugin for parsing xunit results in bamboo and published on the atlassian marketplace.

It should support v1, v2 and dotnet test outputs for xunit.

hope this helps.
