Use case: merging multiple JSON reports
You can use this script to merge multiple JSON reports together.
const { aggregateResultsByModule } = require('mutation-testing-metrics');
const fs = require('fs');
const packagesRoot = './packages';
const reportsPerModule = fs
.readdirSync(packagesRoot)
.map((pkg) => [pkg, `${packagesRoot}/${pkg}/reports/mutation/mutation.json`])
.filter(([, report]) => fs.existsSync(report))
.map(([pkg, report]) => [pkg, require(report)])
.reduce((acc, [pkg, report]) => {
acc[pkg] = report;
return acc;
}, {});
const monoReport = aggregateResultsByModule(reportsPerModule);
fs.writeFileSync('./mono-report.html', reportTemplate(monoReport), 'utf-8');
function reportTemplate(report) {
const scriptContent = fs.readFileSync(require.resolve('mutation-testing-elements/dist/mutation-test-elements.js'), 'utf-8');
return `<!DOCTYPE html>
