Mochaweome JSON Report: Tests Array is not getting parsed

[anandprasathm]

Hi,

I am trying to read the mochawesome json report to identify the test cases status.

When i am trying to read the file using javascript, i am not able to parse the Tests Array.

Info as below

Sample Mochawesome Report:

}

Javascript code:
function publishResults()
{
var outputReport = fs.readFileSync('./mochawesome-report/mochawesome.json', 'utf8');
var rpt=JSON.parse(outputReport);
console.log(rpt);
}

Output console:

If we notice, tests property inside results array property, it is reported as '[Array]' instead of the values.

Is there anyway to get those values or am i mission something on the coding part?

The tests are being parsed correctly. The issue is you are hitting a depth limit with console.log. Take a look at this related question on SO. You should be able to use one of the solutions to print the entire object.
