Couldn't generate Html Report

[Pearlking311]

Have you read the documentation?

• Yes, I've read the how to make a reproducable bug guide
• Yes, I've read the how to debug my script guide

URL

https://www.demoblaze.com

What are you trying to accomplish

I have used measure.start and measure.stop in each page. When the script fails before url change, html metrics are not generated.

NOTE: I have manually failed step 3 by inputting incorrect Xpath.

What browser did you use?

Chrome

How to reproduce

Run the below mentioned script for 2 Iteration and verify Report is generated when the script fails

module.exports = async function(context, commands) 
{
	//Step 01: Landing Page
	await commands.measure.start('SC01_T01_LandingPageLaptops');
	await commands.navigate("https://www.demoblaze.com");
	await commands.measure.stop();
	context.log.info('Step 01: Success');

	//Step 02: Select Category
	await commands.measure.start('SC01_T02_SelectCategoryLaptops');
	try
	{
		await commands.click.byXpathAndWait('//a[text()="Laptops"]');
	}
	catch(e)
	{
		context.log.error('Step 02: Could not Select Category');
	}
	await commands.measure.stop();
	context.log.info('Step 02: Category selected successfully');

	//Step 03: Select Product
	await commands.measure.start('SC01_T03_SelectProductLaptops');
	try
	{
		await commands.click.byXpathAndWait('//*[@id="tbodyid"]/div[1]/div/div/h4/b');
	}
	catch(e)
	{
		context.log.error('Step 03: Could not Select Product');
		await commands.measure.stop();
		return commands.markAsFailure('Failed during Product selection');
	}
	await commands.measure.stop();
	context.log.info('Step 03: Product page displayed');
	await commands.cache.clear();
}

Log output

Hi @Pearlking311 and thank you for the bug report! I also get error but I get a base HTML page generated. Do you add any other cli parameters when you run the test? Wanted to check so I know that I fix all things when I work on it. When I tested it I used: sitespeed.io test.cjs --multi

[Pearlking311]

Hi @soulgalore, Sorry I missed to include it. I used: sitespeed.io --config D:\DemoblazeConfig.json --multi D:\test2.js
DemoblazeConfig.json

I got a fix that I can toll out this weekend, but I also think we are missing something, like we should have something like stopAsError that we could use in a catch block so we don't collect metrics for a test that failed. I'll check if I can do something about it.

[soulgalore]

A fix for this was released last week + checkout stopAsError in https://www.sitespeed.io/documentation/sitespeed.io/scripting/tutorial-06-Error-handling.html
