# Jest

You can automatically [detect and manage flaky tests](https://docs.trunk.io/flaky-tests/detection) in your Jest projects by integrating with Trunk. This document explains how to configure Jest to output JUnit XML reports that can be uploaded to Trunk for analysis.

### Checklist

By the end of this guide, you should achieve the following before proceeding to the [next steps](#next-step) to configure your CI provider.

* [ ] Generate a compatible test report
* [ ] Configure the report file path or glob
* [ ] Disable retries for better detection accuracy
* [ ] Test uploads locally

After correctly generating reports following the above steps, you'll be ready to move on to the next steps to [configure uploads in CI](https://docs.trunk.io/flaky-tests/get-started/ci-providers).

### Generating Reports

Trunk detects flaky tests by analyzing test results automatically uploaded from your CI jobs. You can do this by generating XML reports from your test runs.

To generate a Trunk-compatible XML report, install the `jest-junit` package:

```bash
npm install --save-dev jest-junit
```

Update your Jest config to add `jest-junit` as a reporter:

{% code title="jest.config.json" %}

```json
{
  "reporters": [
    [
      "jest-junit",
      {
        "outputDirectory": "./",
        "outputName": "junit.xml",
        "addFileAttribute": "true",
        "reportTestSuiteErrors": "true"
      }
    ]
  ]
}
```

{% endcode %}

#### Report File Path

The `outputDirectory` and `outputName` options specify the path of the XML report. You'll need this path later when configuring automatic uploads to Trunk.

#### Disable Retries

You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests. You should disable retries for accurate detection and use the [Quarantining](https://docs.trunk.io/flaky-tests/quarantining) feature to stop flaky tests from failing your CI jobs.

If you have retries configured using the [jest.retryTimes method](https://jestjs.io/docs/jest-object#jestretrytimesnumretries-options), disable them for more accurate results.

### Try It Locally

#### **The Validate Command**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Linux (x64)" %}

```bash
SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.gz"
curl -fL --retry 3 \
  "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
  | tar -xz

chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./junit.xml"
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Linux (arm64)" %}

```bash
SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-aarch64-unknown-linux.tar.gz"
curl -fL --retry 3 \
  "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
  | tar -xz

chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./junit.xml"
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="macOS (arm64)" %}

```bash
SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz"
curl -fL --retry 3 \
  "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
  | tar -xz

chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./junit.xml"
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="macOS (x64)" %}

```bash
SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz"
curl -fL --retry 3 \
  "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
  | tar -xz

chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./junit.xml"
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

#### Test Upload

Before modifying your CI jobs to automatically upload test results to Trunk, try uploading a single test run manually.

You make an upload to Trunk using the following command:

```sh
./trunk-analytics-cli upload --junit-paths "./junit.xml" \
    --org-url-slug <TRUNK_ORG_SLUG> \
    --token <TRUNK_ORG_TOKEN>
```

You can find your Trunk organization slug and token in the settings or by following these [instructions](https://docs.trunk.io/flaky-tests/get-started/ci-providers/otherci#id-1.-store-a-trunk_token-secret-in-your-ci-system). After your upload, you can verify that Trunk has received and processed it successfully in the **Uploads** tab. Warnings will be displayed if the report has issues.
