Configuring minitest |
A guide for generating Trunk-compatible test reports for minitest |
|
You can automatically detect and manage flaky tests in your minitest projects by integrating with Trunk. This document explains how to configure minitest to output JUnit XML reports that can be uploaded to Trunk for analysis.
{% include "../../../.gitbook/includes/checklist.md" %}
Trunk detects flaky tests by analyzing test reports automatically uploaded from your CI jobs. You can do this by generating Trunk-compatible XML reports from your test runs.
To generate XML reports, install the minitest-reporters
gem:
gem install minitest-reporters
Configure the JUnitReporter
reporter in your test_helper.rb
file:
{% code title="test_helper.rb" %}
require "minitest/reporters"
Minitest::Reporters.use! Minitest::Reporters::JUnitReporter.new
{% endcode %}
You can specify a file path for your minitest results with the MINITEST_REPORTERS_REPORTS_DIR
environment variable:
MINITEST_REPORTERS_REPORTS_DIR="./junit.xml" ruby -Ilib:test <FILES>
This will automatically write all test results to JUnit XML files in the results
directory.
You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests.
Minitest doesn't support retries out of the box, but if you implemented retries or imported a package, remember to disable them.

Before modifying your CI jobs to automatically upload test results to Trunk, try uploading a single test run manually.
You make an upload to Trunk using the following command:
curl -fsSLO --retry 3 https://trunk.io/releases/trunk && chmod +x trunk
./trunk flakytests upload --junit-paths "./junit.xml" \
--org-url-slug <TRUNK_ORG_SLUG> \
--token <TRUNK_ORG_TOKEN>
