    // reporters configuration
    reporters: ['cdash'],

    cdashReporter: {
      outputFolder: 'results',
      outputFileName: 'cdash-result.xml',
      siteConfig: './gen/cdash-site-config.json'
    },

    plugins: [
      'karma-cdash-reporter'
    ]
  });
};

outputFolder [OPTIONAL]

Path to the folder in which the report should be written. Defaults to '.'.

outputFileName [OPTIONAL]

Name of the file in which the report should be written (in the outputFolder). Defaults to 'cdash-result' + (siteConfig.BuildStamp ? '-' + siteConfig.BuildStamp : '') + '.xml'.

siteConfig [MANDATORY] Path to a json file defined as follow:

{
  "site": {
    "BuildName": "...",
    "BuildStamp": "...",
    "Name": "...",
    "Generator": "...",
    "CompilerName": "...",
    "OSName": "...",
    "Hostname": "...",
    "OSRelease": "...",
    "OSVersion": "...",
    "OSPlatform": "...",
    "Is64Bits": "...",
    "VendorString": "...",
    "VendorID": "...",
    "FamilyID": "...",
    "ModelID": "...",
    "ProcessorCacheSize": "...",
    "NumberOfLogicalCPU": "...",
    "NumberOfPhysicalCPU": "...",
    "TotalVirtualMemory": "...",
    "TotalPhysicalMemory": "...",
    "LogicalProcessorsPerPhysical": "...",
    "ProcessorClockFrequency": "..."
  },
  "testConfig": {
    "Path": "...",
    "FullCommandLine": "..."
  }
}

These are valued that will be entered in your CDash xml document. The important values are:

Value	Description	CMake variable (if any)
BuildName	The name you gave to your build	CTEST_BUILD_NAME
BuildStamp	The identifier of this specific build	file(STRINGS "${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/Testing/TAG" KARMA_CTEST_TAG LIMIT_COUNT 1)
		If you set a specific track when you called ctest_start, you will have to happen "-YourTrackName"
Name	The name of your build site	CTEST_SITE

Submission to CDash

For some reason you need to send the configure and build reports BEFORE your send the test report. From your ctest script, run

  ctest_submit(PARTS Configure Build) #submit configure and build reports first
  ctest_submit(FILES "Path/to/the/result/file") #submit tests results
