jest-allure2-reporter

Allure Framework integration for Jest tests - beautiful, detailed reports

What is jest-allure2-reporter?

This library connects Jest tests with Allure Framework to generate rich, interactive test reports that provide:

Clear test execution flows with step-by-step breakdowns
Attachments (screenshots, logs, data)
Historical test data and trends
Comprehensive context for easier debugging

Watch how jest-allure2-reporter turns test investigations into detective stories with every clue clearly laid out

As shown in the video, you can easily:

Add metadata with docblock pragmas or the programmatic API
Automatically track steps and attach artifacts using decorators
Organize your tests with powerful configuration options

Quick Installation

npm install --save-dev jest-allure2-reporter

Configure Jest (e.g., in jest.config.js):

/** @type {import('@jest/types').Config.InitialOptions} */
module.exports = {
  // Add to your existing configuration
  reporters: [
    'default', // Keep for console output
    'jest-allure2-reporter',
  ],
  testEnvironment: 'jest-allure2-reporter/environment-node',
  // Or for browser testing: 'jest-allure2-reporter/environment-jsdom'
};

Key Features

Test Steps: Define and visualize test steps using the @Step decorator
Rich Attachments: Add screenshots, logs, JSON data, etc. to your test reports
Test Metadata: Enhance reports with descriptions, links, tags, and more
TypeScript Support: Comprehensive type definitions for better development
Visual Regression: Support for image snapshot comparisons and diff visualization

Basic Usage

// my-page.ts
import { allure, Step } from 'jest-allure2-reporter/api';

export class MyPage {
  @Step('Load user data for ID: {{userId}}')
  async loadUserData(userId: string) {
    // Fetch data logic...
    const userData = { name: 'John Doe', id: userId };

    // Add JSON attachment
    allure.attachment('User Data', JSON.stringify(userData, null, 2), 'application/json');
    return userData;
  }
}

// my.test.ts
import { allure } from 'jest-allure2-reporter/api';
import { MyPage } from './my-page';

describe('User Profile', () => {
  const page = new MyPage();

  it('should load user data correctly', async () => {
    // Add metadata
    allure.feature('Profile');
    allure.severity('critical');

    const userData = await page.loadUserData('user123');
    expect(userData.name).toBe('John Doe');
  });
});

Generating Reports

After running your tests, generate the Allure report:

# Install Allure command line if needed
npm install -g allure-commandline

# Generate and open report
allure generate allure-results --clean
allure open

For CI environments:

ALLURE_NO_ANALYTICS=1 allure generate allure-results --clean

Core Features

Test Steps with `@Step`

@Step('Add item "{{itemName}}" to cart')
async addItemToCart(itemName: string, quantity: number) {
  allure.parameter('Quantity', quantity);
  // Implementation...
}

Attachments

// Direct attachment
allure.attachment('Screenshot', screenshotBuffer, 'image/png');

// Method decorator
@Attachment('Order Details', 'application/json')
getOrderDetails() {
  return JSON.stringify(this.orderData);
}

// File attachment
@FileAttachment('Invoice', 'application/pdf')
getInvoicePath() {
  return '/path/to/invoice.pdf';
}

Test Metadata

// Runtime API
allure.epic('User Management');
allure.feature('Registration');
allure.tag('smoke', 'critical');
allure.link('https://example.com/requirements/REQ-101', 'REQ-101');

// Docblock annotations
/**
 * @epic Product Discovery
 * @feature Product Details
 * @severity blocker
 */
describe('Product Details', () => {
  // Tests...
});

// BDD-style
$Epic('E-commerce');
$Feature('Shopping Cart');
describe('Cart Functionality', () => {
  // Tests...
});
