Our organization uses a custom automation framework that reports detailed results in a test log. We use Xbot to run tests using the external framework and then upload the results file back into PractiTest using the API (as the test tool’s JUnit output isn’t parsed well by PT and doesn’t create useful output when imported directly). However this means our test plan needs to have two copies of each test - one Xbot test to run the automation, and an API test to report the per-step results, which skews our statistics as every test completion gets logged twice.
Would it be feasible to allow Xbot tests to expose per-step results in test runs like API/manual tests do? This would allow for testers to inspect automation results in detail and create issues or manually verify individual failed steps without having to read the bare JUnit XML without needing to have two tests in the TestSet for each actual test to be performed.
