You can automatically in your projects running RSpec by integrating with Trunk. This document explains how to configure RSpec to output JUnit XML reports that can be uploaded to Trunk for analysis.
By the end of this guide, you should achieve the following before proceeding to the to configure your CI provider.
After correctly generating reports following the above steps, you'll be ready to move on to the next steps to .
Trunk detects flaky tests by analyzing test reports automatically uploaded from your CI jobs. You can do this for your Rspec tests by generating JUnit XML reports from your test runs.
To generate Trunk-compatible reports, install the rspec_junit_formatter:
You can use rspec_junit_formatter like this:
The JUnit report will be written to the location specified by the --out argument. In the example above, the report would be at ./junit.xml. You will need this when you update your CI config to integrate with Trunk.
You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests.
This will not upload anything to Trunk. To improve detection accuracy, you should address all errors and warnings before proceeding to the next steps.
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:
Configure your CI to upload test runs to Trunk. Find the guides for your CI framework below:
If you have a step in CI to rerun failed tests with the --only-failures option, or you're using a package like , remember to disable them.
You can validate your test reports using the . If you don't have it installed already, you can install and run the validate command like this:
You can find your Trunk organization slug and token in the settings or by following these . 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.
