hiptest-publisher is a tool to read Test Management projects from CucumberStudio (formerly know as HipTest) and publish them as executable test scripts stubs to start automating.
A docker image of hiptest-publisher is built automatically and is available on Docker Hub
To call hiptest-publisher using this image, run this command:
docker run -it --rm -u $UID -v $(pwd):/app hiptest/hiptest-publisher <arguments>
A wrapper script is provided in
bin/hiptest-publisher-docker
.
To use it:
- copy
bin/hiptest-publisher-docker
to a location available in yourPATH
like~/bin
or/usr/local/bin
- rename it as
hiptest-publisher
- make it executable with
chmod +x hiptest-publisher
You will then be able to use hiptest-publisher as if it was locally installed.
You need to have Ruby installed on your machine. You can then install it using gem:
gem install hiptest-publisher
Note: for Windows users, take a look at this Windows installation guide.
Go to CucumberStudio projects list, pick one project, and select the Settings tab. This tab is available only for projects you're admin of. From there, copy the secret token and run this command line:
hiptest-publisher --token=<YOUR TOKEN>
This will create a Ruby tests suite. For the moment, we support the following languages and frameworks:
- Behat
- Behave
- CSharp (NUnit)
- Cucumber (Groovy / Java / Javascript / Ruby / TypeScript)
- Cucumber Legacy (Groovy / Java / TypeScript) (previous Cucumber versions)
- Groovy (Spock)
- Java (Espresso / JUnit / TestNg)
- JavaScript (CodeceptJS / Jasmine / Mocha / Protractor / QUnit)
- JBehave
- PHP (PHPUnit)
- Python (UnitTest)
- Robot Framework
- Ruby (MiniTest / RSpec)
- Selenium IDE
- SpecFlow
- Swift (XCTest)
You can specify the output language and framework in the command line, for example:
hiptest-publisher --token=<YOUR TOKEN> --language=ruby --framework=minitest
When publishing, you'll notice a file called actionwords_signature.yaml
. Store this file in your code repository, it will be used to handle updates of the action word.
You can generate the test suite from a test run of your project by specifying option --test-run-id=<xxx>
when calling hiptest-publisher
. You can find the test run id in the address bar of your browser. If your browser address is https://studio.cucumber.io/projects/1234/testRuns/6941
, then your test run id is 6941
. You can generate your tests from your test with this command line:
hiptest-publisher --token=<YOUR TOKEN> --test-run-id=6941
For more information on the available options, use the following command:
hiptest-publisher --help

You have the possibility to store some configuration in a file named 'config'. Copy the file config.sample provided here and update the values with the values you use.
If you have multiple projects, you can have multiple config files and select one using the --config-file option:
# Use the default config file
hiptest-publisher
# Use the one to export as minitest
hiptest-publisher --config-file=config_minitest
For example, for java you can use this config file content:
token = '<YOUR TOKEN>'
language = 'java'
output_directory = '<YOUR OUTPUT DIRECTORY>'
package = 'com.youcompany'
Note that options from command line arguments override options from config file.
If you want to override one of the existing configurations, you can use the --overriden-language-configs option to specify a path that is checked for configuration files prior to looking at the default configuration files. If one is found, it will use that file instead of the default, otherwise it will use the default configuration for the specified language.
To use hiptest-publisher behind a http proxy, set an environment variable named http_proxy
http_proxy=http://<proxy_host>:<proxy_port>
If username and password are required:
http_proxy=http://<username>:<password>@<proxy_host>:<proxy_port>
You can use the option --push
to push the results back to CucumberStudio. For this, you first need to generate the test code from a Test Run by specifying option --test-run-id=<xxx>
during code generation (or add it to the configuration file).
The tests must then generate a test report that is supported by CucumberStudio. Currently four types of test results are handled:
- Cucumber JSON format
- jUnit XML format
- NUnit XML v2 format
- Robot framework XML output
- TAP (Test Anything Protocol)
You can specify the type of export when pushing by using the option --push-format=[cucumber-json|junit|nunit|robot|tap]
or specifying it in the config file.
You can push multiple files at once (using wildcard) but in that case, do not forget to add quotes. For examples:
hiptest-publisher --config-file=<path to your config file> --push="reports/*.xml"
The number of imported test results will be displayed. For debugging purposes, you can display imported tests individually with the --verbose
option.
While developing, you can install the gem locally by issuing
bundle exec rake install
You can also run the command directly with bundle exec ruby -I lib bin/hiptest-publisher
. It is handy to define an alias so you can test your code easily:
# this alias will only work when run from the root of the project
alias hiptest-publisher='bundle exec ruby -I lib bin/hiptest-publisher'
To help with internationalization, you can temporarly add the i18n-tasks
in the Gemfile and run i18n-tasks health
to check that everything is ok and there are no missing translations. We removed it because of the many dependencies it pulls.
Other useful commands:
i18n-tasks missing
i18n-tasks unused
i18n-tasks normalize
i18n-tasks check-consistent-interpolations
