✨ Installation ✨

Run following commands:

npm

npm install @skilbourn/playwright-report-summary --save-dev

yarn

yarn add @skilbourn/playwright-report-summary --dev

📍 Configuration 📍

Modify your playwright.config.ts file to include the reporter:

  reporter: [
    ['@skilbourn/playwright-report-summary', { outputFile: 'custom-summary.txt' }]],
    ['html'], // other reporters
    ['dot']
  ],

The default output location will be to your root as summary.txt Including the optional outputFile parameter allows you to specify a custom report location.

Default Output 📜

If you do not pass an outputFile option, then the summary will be generated to a summary.txt file in the following format:

Total Tests in Suite: 30,
Total Tests Completed: 30,
Tests Passed: 27,
Tests Failed: 0,
Flaky Tests: 0,
Test run was failure free? true,
Test Skipped: 3,
Duration of CPU usage in ms: 75188,
Duration of entire test run in ms: 12531,
Average Test Duration in ms:2506.3,
Test Suite Duration: 00:13 (mm:ss),
Average Test Duration: 00:03 (mm:ss),
Number of workers used for test run: 6

Customizing Outputs 👨‍💻

You may also create a custom report by leveraging the values in the stats object. To add a custom report leveraging your stats, create a function in the format:

import type { Stats } from '@skilbourn/playwright-report-summary';

function customReport(stats: Stats) {
  return `Greetings, hello, ${stats.expectedResults} tests passed as expected in ${stats.formattedDurationSuite}`;
}

export default customReport;

and then modify your playwright.config.ts file with the following:

import type { PlaywrightTestConfig } from '@playwright/test';
import { devices } from '@playwright/test';

import customReport from './customReport';
 // Your custom report path and preferred name


const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
  ...
  reporter: [
    ['@skilbourn/playwright-report-summary', { outputFile: 'custom-summary.txt', inputTemplate: customReport }]]
  ],

this will generate a custom-summary.txt file such as :

hello, 50 tests passed as expected in 03:51 (mm:ss)

Available Stats 🧰

The stats object provides information on your test suite:

Name	type	Description
testsInSuite	number	Total number of tests in suite
totalTestsRun	number	total tests run. Retried tests can make this value larger than testsInSuite
expectedResults	number	total test finished as expected
unexpectedResults	number	total tests not finished as expected
flakyTests	number	total of tests that passed when retried
testMarkedSkipped	number	total tests marked as test.skip() or test.fixme()
failureFree	boolean	returns true if suite completes with all test completing as expected after retries
durationCPU	number	total milliseconds spent run tests. If tests run parallel with multiple workers, this value will be larger than the duration of running the suite
durationSuite	number	milliseconds to complete all tests in suite
avgTestDuration	number	average test duration of all tests in milliseconds
formattedDurationSuite	string	duration to complete all tests in mm:ss format
formattedAvgTestDuration	string	average test duration of all tests in mm:ss format
failures	object	an object containing each failure in the format {[test.title: result.status]} Retries with failures will populate this with multiple entries of the same test
workers	number	total number of workers used to run the suite
