pytest-jsonverdict

pytest-jsonverdict is a pytest-plugin which enables you to save some data of a test run to a .json-file.

It basically does two things:

• It counts how many of your tests were passed / failed /xpassed etc.
• It can add specific test outcomes to the JSON output.

Notice: This is a quite crude implementation, for a version with more features, maybe look at: https://github.com/numirias/pytest-json-report

Output format and content

The content of the output file is as follows::

{
    "start": "19.12.2017 15:21:08",
    "duration": 384.378414,
    "passed": 22,
    "failed": 7,
    "xpassed": 0,
    "xfailed": 16,
    "errors": 0,
    "rerun": null,
    "sum": 45,
    "extra": {
        "section1": {
            "node1": "passed",
            "node2": "xfailed"
        },
        "section2": {
            "node1": "failed",
            "node2": "error"
        },
    }
}

Field	Type	Description
start	python date format: %d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S	Test suite starting time
