We are building a setup that will send statistics information to the external server while building the application. There is the following build configuration with several steps.
- 1st step builds the application and run unittests.
- As a result a set of xml files (result of nUnit run) are created
- 2nd step post a message
Write-Host "##teamcity[importData type='nunit' path='%report.monitoring.rules%' parseOutOfDate='true' verbose='true']"to process them - 3rd step needs to access statistics information from the test run. Either through variables or REST api. For now it's requested using the following call
Invoke-WebRequest -uri http://[host]/httpAuth/app/rest/builds/id:$buildId/statistics -Credential $creds -Headers @{"accept"="application/json"}
The problem is that inside the 3rd step I can't get statistics information even if pause is added. However, as soon as build is complete statistics appear (e.g. this line in the response
<property name="TotalTestCount" value="2"/>)
The question: Is it possible to access information about test run during the build?
Based on their documentation, it would appear as though you can get the information you want through issuing a request to a url like the following: http://teamcity:8111/app/rest/testOccurrences?locator=build:(id:XXX),currentlyFailing:true
